Advertising Terminology • Reach • Number in target audience exposed • Typically 4-week period • Frequency • Average number of exposures within a given period • Opportunities to see (OTS) • Cumulative exposures • Placements x frequency • Ratings and Cost per Rating Point (CPRP) • Ratings measure percent of target market exposed by medium • CPRP allows for comparison across media • Cost of media buy / vehicle’s rating • Weighted CPM
Advertising Terminology • Costs • Cost per thousand (CPM) • CPM allows for cost comparisons • Gross rating points (GRPs) • Measures impact of intensity of media plan • Vehicle rating x OTS (number of insertions) • Impressions • Gross impressions – total audience exposed to ad • Continuity • Continuous campaign • Pulsating campaign • Flighting (or discontinuous) campaign
Ad Campaign Continuity Continuous campaign Advantages: • Serves as a constant reminder to the customer • Covers the entire buying cycle Disadvantages: • Higher costs • Potential for overexposure
Flighting Campaign Advantages: • Cost efficiency of advertising, only used during purchase cycles • Allows for more than one medium or vehicle on limited budgets Disadvantages: • Lack of awareness, interest, retention or promotional message during non-scheduled times – could lead to decay
Pulsating Campaign Advantages: • Same as the two previous methods Disadvantage: • Not required for seasonal products, or other cyclical products, therefore adding to organization’s expenses

Three-exposure hypothesis • Intrusion value • Takes a minimum of three exposures for an ad to be effective • Effective frequency – number of times that one must be exposed to message to achieve its objective • Effective reach - % of target market that must be exposed to ad to achieve its objective • Size, placement, length of ad are factors to consider • Number of media used is important (variability)
Achieving Advertising Objectives • Recency theory • One exposure may be enough • Effective the closer to a purchase • States that consumers use selective retention when they consider ads. • Advertising is a waste of money when intended market is not reached
Achieving Advertising Objectives • Media Multiplier Effect • The combined impact of usingtwo or more media isstrongerthanusingeither medium alone • Often the reason for usingseveraldifferent media • This ensures a broader effective reach
