6. 1. Media Mix Generally a number of alternatives Decisions are based on: Objectives Product/service characteristics Budget Preferences Creative strategy

7. 2. Target Audience Coverage Target Market Proportion Full Market Coverage Partial Market Coverage Exceeding Market Population excluding target market Target market Media coverage Media overexposure

8. 3. Geographic Coverage Firms should maximize the effectiveness of advertising and promotion dollars by spending in markets where they will achieve the desired objectives. Useful calculations examined by marketers to make this decision: Brand Development Index (BDI) Category Development Index (CDI)

9. Brand and Category Analysis Percentage of brand to total Canadian sales in market Percentage of total Canadian population in market BDI =X 100 Brand Development Index

10. Our brand is Tim Horton’s Coffee. We would like to compare our brand development in Ontario vs. Alberta. Let’s say that: 50% of our sales come from Ontario 30% of our sales come from Alberta 58% of the Canadian population lives in Ontario 29% of the Canadian population lives in Alberta Calculate the BDI for each province. What does this mean?

11. Brand Development Index Ontario BDI = 50/58=.862X100=86.2 Alberta BDI = 30/29 = 1.0345x100=103.45

12. Brand and Category Analysis Percentage of total product category sales in market Percentage of total Canadian population in market CDI =X 100 Category Development Index

13. Tim Horton’s example: 40% of sales of all takeout coffee come from Ontario 30% of sales of all takeout coffee come from Alberta 58% of the Canadian population lives in Ontario 29% of the Canadian population lives in Alberta Calculate the CDI for Ontario and Alberta

14. Category Development Index Ontario = 40/58 =.689x100 = 68.9 Alberta = 30/29 = 1.0345 x 100 = 103.45

15. Brand and Category Analysis High market share Good market potential High market share Good market potential High market share Good market potential High market share Good market potential Low CDI High CDI High BDI Low market share Good market potential Low BDI High market share Monitor for sales decline High market share Monitor for sales decline High market share Monitor for sales decline High market share Monitor for sales decline Low market share Poor market potential Low market share Poor market potential

16. Brand and Category Analysis The market usually represents good sales potential for both the product and the brand. Low CDI High CDI High BDI The product category shows high potential but the brand isn’t doing well; the reason should be determined. Low BDI The category isn’t selling well but the brand is; may be a good market in which to advertise but should be monitored for sales decline. Both the product category and the brand are doing poorly; not likely to be a good place to advertise.

18. 5. Reach vs. Frequency Reach Exposing potential buyers to the message. There is no known way of determining how much reach is required to achieve levels of awareness, attitude change, or buying intention. We cannot be sure an ad placed in a vehicle will actually reach the intended audience.

19. 5. Reach vs. Frequency Frequency The number of times one is exposed to a media vehicle. Advertiser has no way of knowing if exposure to a vehicle results in exposure to ad. Therefore, one exposure to the vehicle constitutes reach. This does not help determine frequency required to make an impact. Precise determination requires consideration of creativity of ad, receiver involvement, noise, etc.

20. 5. Reach vs. Frequency Establishing Reach and Frequency Levels Figure 9-12

21. 5. Reach vs. Frequency Gross Rating Points (GRPs) Based on the total audience the media schedule may reach. Use a duplicated reach estimate. GRP = Reach x Frequency

22. Gross Rating Points GRPs refer to the weight of a media schedule against a pre-determined target audience. GRP = Reach (%) x Frequency = 50 x 3.5 = 175

32. Newspaper Cost Calculation Newspaper rates are based on a per line rate There are two ways to calculate lines – MAL and Agate Some newspapers use one way, some use another Usually, the line rate goes down as you advertise more = Volume discounts

37. Factors Influencing Newspaper Rates Position Charge Position Charge Colour Inserts A request for a specific page or section increases the cost. Colour increases cost but it also increases awareness. Rates are quoted on a CPM basis and are influenced by number of pages.

38. Buying Magazine Space The cost of the ad is determined by multiplying the page rate (by size) by the frequency. If a 1P, 4C ad costs $20,000 and it runs in 6 consecutive issues of a monthly magazine, the total cost would be: $20,000 x 6 = $120,000.

39. Magazine Cost Calculation Plan Canadian Geographic 1 Page 4 Colour 4 insertions Plan Canadian Geographic 1 Page 4 Colour 4 insertions The base rate would be the 3-5 times rate on the rate card. Cost Calculation: $10,755 x 4 = $43,020
