Media Plan – Overview We shall base our plan on sound research into the media audience, negotiation for best pricing/terms and evaluation of results. • Research – fully identify and understand the target audience for each media selection. Some other factors to identify are penetration, frequency and reach. • Negotiation – maximize our budget based on careful negotiation of terms and attempting to purchase space as far in advance as possible where it will provide a better “package” deal for us throughout the year. • Post Analysis – study response to ads placed in specific publications or locations. This should be accomplished through our established methods such as study of MCV source codes and guest surveys.
