6. How reach builds over time? GRP and reach are directly related with each other. As GRP increases, reach also increases, but there is a diminishing point. After that point reach remains constant. There is no need to increase the level of advertising after that point. Source: Advertising Media Planning, Exhibit 5.6, p.96

7. How reach builds over time? When a campaign starts out, reach rises quickly, as many people haven’t seen the advertisement before. As the campaign becomes more mature, there are fewer and fewer new people exposed. Reach rises more slowly. Meanwhile, the number of people exposed more than once, frequency, increases.

8. Effective Reach and Effective Frequency Effective Reach: The percent of the target audience exposed at the frequency level that is effective in the planner’s judgement. Effective Frequency: The amount of frequency the planner judges to be necessary for advertisements to be effective in communicating.
