 Gross rating points--Weight/Tonnage
 Add all the ratings of all programs
 Easier way: Reach X Frequency
 Plan has a reach of 60%

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.

low BDI markets?

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.
