Impact of properties • Provide base for differentiating slots with differential ratings • Allow channels to command differential rates • Facilitate thematic media innovations and tie-ups • Build interactivity and audience engagement
GECs also use horizontal & vertical scheduling extensively… Why??
They build a loyal viewer base through appointment viewing thus bringing in consistent viewership numbers for the channel Horizontal Strips Vertical Strips Allows audiences to catch up on missed episodes thus ensuring there is no loss of viewership due to disconnect with story progression
Issues Covered • Delivering the need for Regional Content without competing against the popular national GEC channels • Controlling the effect of cannibalizations • Star Pravah building viewership base by catering to popular demand

Genre performance - by time-band Build their prime time before national PT Tam, CS 4+, Mh, 22/03/2009 to 28/11/2009
The primary genre audience is: -Female -Aged 35+ -All SECs Male viewership is high in morning and prime and night timebands TAM, CS4+, MH, Index
Closer look at morning time band ETV Marathi rules the rooster in the morning timeband with regional news Thereafter Zee takes over with religious content Again, the slots are planned before Hindi GEC picks up to avoid clashes Tam, CS 4+, MH, 22/03/2009 to 28/11/2009
Zee marathi balances its FPC tactfully to cater to all audiences in relevant timebands • The programming includes a mix of • serials & cookery shows (female centric) • Comedy & Diff magazine (male centric) • Reality and Talent shows (all audience) • Regional movies have a higher female skew TAM, CS4+, MH, Index
ETV Marathi differentiates through news bulletin • Morning • Lunch • Pre prime and • Late night slots • While morning and night are established male audience timebands, ETV breaks the norms by showing news in lunch timeband • The news is regional in nature and is therefore able to stand against the might of national 24-hr news channels TAM, CS4+, MH, Index
Being a relatively new (and late) entrant in the MH regional space, Star Pravah plays it safe • They directly target the core GEC TG through programming that is heavily skewed towards female audiences, especially housewives
