COMMUNICATION: The process by which ideas, thoughts, and subsequent feedback is accomplished through encoding, sending, and decoding. In order for effective communication to occur the sender must understand the target audience and encode the message in a way that will be understood. This message is sent in various forms and can be distorted by interference prior to reaching the receiver. Receiver then interprets the message and performs required action and gives necessary feedback to the sender. Utilizing this process correctly is an integral part of the promotion element in the marketing mix.

PLASTIC MONEY

A slang phrase for credit cards, especially when such cards used to make purchases. The "plastic" portion of this term refers to the plastic construction of credit cards, as opposed to paper and metal of currency. The "money" portion is an erroneous reference to credit cards as a form of money, which they are not. Although credit cards do facilitate transactions, because they are a liability rather than an asset, they are not money and not part of the economy's money supply.
