Scheduling Strategies
Timing strategies: When to advertise?
Seasonality, holidays, days of the week, time of day
Lead time: time between thinking about purchase and
purchasing; also refers to production time to get an ad in
a medium
Duration: How long?
Advertisers can’t afford to cover the entire year
If the period is too short, the message may not have
sufficient impact
If the period is too long, the ads may suffer from wearout
Continuity: How often?
How advertising is spread out over the length of the
campaign
Continuous strategy spreads ads evenly over campaign
period
Scheduling Strategies
Flighting strategy
Alternating periods of intense advertising activity
(bursts) and no advertising (hiatus).
Pulsing strategy
Advertising is intensified (peaks) before an aperture
and reduced to lower levels (valleys) until the aperture
reopens; bursts of activity.
Where to spend your money.

Media Planning Trends
Unbundling Media Planning and Buying
Agencies media departments have become separate,
independent profit centers and can work for the agencies’
competition, and compete with agencies for the planning
function.
Online Media Buying
Goggle's Adwords and eBay’s Media Marketplace are selling
Internet advertising online.
Zimmerman (advertising agency) sells advertising online for a
number of media including print, radio, direct mail, in-store ads,
and the Internet.
New Forms of Media Research
Online media research (hits and clicks) don’t measure impact.
Traditional media monitoring systems don’t address new ways
media is used and systems like TiVo and interactive TV.
Most media research measures independent media, not the
effectiveness of combined media.
