Promotion involves telling customers about the right product available at the right place and _____.

Jones Organic Dairy wanted to inform its target customers about the purity of its milk. An advertising agency developed a newspaper ad. The ad showed pictures of happy cows and the ad copy that said the cows were not given certain medications and had adequate pen space. Research showed that parents (the target market) viewed the milk as healthier than nonorganic milk. Many responded by "liking" Jones Organic Dairy's Facebook page.
