While messaging is usually created by the marketing team, it may be used by individuals and teams across a company, from executive leaders to product managers, sales representatives and other groups, in addition to the marketing team itself. Messaging ensures that everyone in an organization who needs to communicate something with the market can do it with a common set of messages and a common understanding of what the market should hear from them. Crisis messaging outlines talking points for how an organization communicates about an unfortunate development, such as a service interruption or a public scandal. Product messaging expresses key selling points about a product. Brand messaging focuses on how and what to communicate about a company, product, or service brand. Organizations may create messaging for different purposes. Corporate messaging communicates about the purpose and value a company provides to the market. Messaging documents are a blueprint for what all the other materials–and people–should communicate. Marketers use these statements to develop materials for marketing communications such as ad slogans, advertising copy, social media posts, press releases, presentation scripts, and so forth. Messaging translates a positioning statement into a set of convincing “key message” statements. Related to positioning, messaging is an approved set of key points or messages an organization uses to communicate about something with a target audience. In marketing, the term “messaging” refers to how an organization talks about itself and the value it provides.

With IMC campaigns bringing together multiple communication tools and touch points, the impact of a consistent, effective message is compounded when it reaches the people you’re targeting again and again through different channels.
