  8. We Can Find Them • Gamer sites (GameFAQs, IGN, UGO, GameSpy, etc.) rank highest in audience composition against Males 12-26, and high against Consumers 12-26 • Social networks such as MySpace rank lower in composition against Males 12–26, and about even against Consumers 12-26 • Music Labels & artists are often overexposed on certain social media sites (ex. MySpace), yet underserved on sites their key audiences are on* • These facts create tremendous opportunities to efficiently speak to key demographic audiences in a less cluttered environment *There is very little record label advertising on ‘gamer’ sites, based on an advertiser review of the top 5 sites

  15. Case Study: HBO-Latino ‘Sex and the City’ • Client: HBO Latino • Media Used: Internet • Objective: The goal was to engage Hispanic entertainment enthusiasts online to drive tune-in awareness for the final season of ‘Sex and the City’ on HBO Latino. • The Challenge: The messaging had to be enticing and strategically targeted for relevancy. We needed high reach and high share of voice vehicles to drive as much traffic as possible within a two-week period. The online media also needed to be consistent with the look and feel of the traditional campaign strategy. • The Solution: We secured prominent media placements in relevant areas of select targeted properties to consolidate maximum share of voice on those properties. Rich media assets were used to tease the upcoming season. User polls were created to promote interaction with the target audience and facilitate viral activity. • The Results: During the course of a two week flight, over 70,000 users interacted with the campaign, at an average CTR of 1.30%. The campaign over delivered planned media by 119%.
