Depends on ad objectives

Creating brand awareness is easier than brand image

Terminology

5

Reach: # of people watching TV/ # of people in Canada = 3.8m/38m = 10%

Frequency: how many time exposure in a given time

Effective Frequency: # of times must be exposed to achieve ad objective

Effective Reach: % of audience must be exposed to achieve an objective eg. brand awareness

Random Reach: Eliminates duplicate reach between media.

TV reach is 7 and Newspaper 5. Effective Reach? Duplicate?

How many exposure? Reach vs frequency. Debatable

TV Rating

8

TV Rating 1 = 1% of the population of HH with TV

Rating: % of household (HH) with TV tuned to specific program.

2m watch CNN in Canada. 20m have TV in Canada (not population).

Share: % of household (HH) with TV tuned to specific program/total TV turned on

2m watch CNN in Canada. 10m have TV turned on.

Q Rating/Score

Measures popularity of shows and personalities ie opinion of audience rather than size of audience; you may be familiar with it but may not like it. Q Score = FAV / FAM * 100

30% rank ABC as favorite (FAV) show. 50% of population is familiar (FAM) with ABC.

Calculate Q score. What does the number mean?

Gross Rating Point (GRP)

9

GRP = reach x frequency

1 GRP = 1 % reach x 1 time exposure to target audience

Measures size of audience by a vehicle’s reach.

It shows relative intensity of one media over another

Trade-off between reach and frequency.

For the given data, calculate frequency to achieve objective of 100 reach.

TV program Rating Cost Spot GRPs

A 8 $15,000 20 160

B 8 $15,000 20 160

C 7 $15,000 10 70

D 7 $15,000 10 70

Total GRPs (Weights) 460

To achieve 100% reach, frequency should be 4.6

Cost Per Rating Point (CPP)

11

How to decide how many GRP we need.

It depends on experience and ad objective. Say, 100 to 150 GRP/week is a good baseline.

Market TV Homes Cost/Spot Rating

Toronto 4m $3,000 20

Winnipeg 2m $2,000 20

Suppose we buy only 3 spots to save ad budget, so we get 60 GRP (3 spot x rating) in each city

2.4m (ie. 60 GRP * 4m) Impression in Toronto @$9,000 (ie. 3 spot at $3,000)

1.2m (ie. 60 GRP * 2m) impressions in Winnipeg @$6,000 (ie. 3 spot at $2,000)

CPP Toronto = $9000/60 GRP = $150. CPP Winnipeg = $6000/60 GRP = $100

1 rating (ie 1% of Household HH) in Toronto = 40,000 HH, and 20,000 HH in Winnipeg

Toronto, for $150, we get 40,000 HH exposure. In Winnipeg, for $100, we get 20,000 HH exposure

Advertising in Toronto is more efficient than Winnipeg!

Media planning: $2m ad budget for 20 markets

12

Markets Sales (%) Pop (%) Budget by pop BDI (sales/pop) Ad Budget

A 12 8 $160,000 1.5 $240,000

B 8 12 $240,000 .67 $160,800

C 6 6 $120,000 1 $120,000

20 100 100 $2,000,000 $2,000,000

For Market B, if we go by population, ad allocation budget should be $240,000 (12%x2m).

But sales potential (sales/population) for Market B is only .67.

So media planer will reduce ad budget for the market B to $160,800 (.67x240,000) and reallocate funds to market with greater market potential such as Market A.

Brand Development Index (BDI) = sales potential = % sales / % population

Category Development Index (CDI) – product-based (cream) or interest-based (make up)

Radio Rating (AQH)

13

Average Quarter-Hour (AQH) person

= # of people listening to a radio station for at least 5 min in a quarter (15-min period)

Average Quarter-Hour (AQH) Rating

= (AQH Persons / Population) * 100

Average Quarter-Hour (AQH) Share

= (AQH Persons / AQH persons to all station) * 100

Cume Estimates

Cume Person = # of diff people who listened for at least 5 minutes

Cume rating = (Cume persons / population) * 100

Time Spent Listening (TSL) = (# AQH Person * # of Quarters / # Cume) / 4 = hr

14 of 23

Outdoor Rating

14

24-hr traffic: 36,000 (suppose)

Daily Effective Circulation (DEC) = audience of the billboard

= For illuminated poster/billboard, multiple by .65; for non-illuminated .45

50 GRP = 50% of the population will see the ad once (ie daily)

Impressions = DEC * showing period

Showing period = how long the ad stays on the billboard/outdoor

Bunching and gapping: underutilization versus overcrowding

Headway: gap between 2 buses’ scheduling. Less gap means more frequency on the same route eg. # buses plying / hour. More impressions

Magazine Ad Rates

15

Frequency discount

Volume discount

Remnant Space

Short Rate

Paid for 6 pages ad, but ran (ie advertise) only 5.

6-time rate $30,000 per page

1-time rate $40,000 per page

Short rate due $20,000 to magazine (ie $30,000 * 6 – $40,000 * 5)

16 of 23

Cost Per Mille (CPM)

16

Compares media costs among vehicles with different circulations

CPM = Ad $ x 1000 / circulation

Magazine A has a circulation of 5m and ad costs $60,000/page.

If only .5m women read the magazine, demographic CPM.

17 of 23

Magazine Efficiency

17

Magazine circulation = 400

Cost per page is $20

CPM = ($20 / 400) * 1000 = $50

If pass-along rate is 3,

CPM = ($20 / (400 + 3 * 400)) * 1000 = $12.5

If target for 20-40 age group is 65% of the circulation, demographic CPM?
