The Benefits of the PR Professional
While some marketers may prefer to handle their own PR tasks, many
others will seek the assistance of outside PR professionals rather than attempt
to handle these activities themselves. Skilled PR professionals offer many
advantages for marketers with their two most important being:
1. Their ability to understand and unearth good stories about a
company and its product
2. Their knowledge of the media market may place them in a better
position to match stories to the news angles media reporters look for.
Trends in Public Relations
Until recently most public relations activity involved person-to-personcontact between PR professionals and members of the media, such as
journalists and television news reporters. However, several trends are
developing that alter the tasks performed by PR people. In most cases these
changes are the result of new Internet technologies that are quickly gaining
widespread acceptance among Internet users and are becoming new media
outlets in their own right.

8. Community Relations and Philanthropy
1. Media Relations
Historically the core of public relations, media relations, includes all efforts to
publicize products or the company to members of the press TV and Radio,
newspaper, magazine, newsletter and Internet. In garnering media coverage,
PR professionals work with the media to place stories about products,
companies and company spokespeople. This is done by developing interesting
and relevant story angles that are pitched to the media. It is important to
remember that media placements come with good stories and no payment is
made to the media for placements. In fact, in order to maintain the highest
level of credibility, many news organizations bar reporters from accepting
even the smallest gifts (e.g., free pencils with product logo) from companies.
Key tools used in media relations include:
I. Press Kits - Include written information such as a news release,
organization background, key spokesperson biographies and other
supporting materials that provide information useful to reporters.
II. Audio or Video News Releases - These are prerecorded features
distributed to news media that may be included within media
programming. For instance, a local news report about amusement parks may include portions of a video news release from a national
amusement park company.

III. Matte Release - Some media, especially small local newspapers,
may accept articles written by companies often as filler material
when their publication lacks sufficient content. PR professionals
submit matte releases through syndicated services (i.e., services
that supply content to many media outlets) or directly to targeted
media via email, fax or snail mail.
IV. Website Press Room - While hard copies of materials are used
and preferred by some media, marketers are well served by an
online press room that caters to media needs and provides
company contact information.
2. Media Tour
Some new products can be successfully publicized when launched
with a media tour. On a media tour a company spokesperson travels to key
cities to introduce a new product by being booked on TV and radio talk shows
and conducting interviews with print and Internet reporters or influencers (e.g.,
bloggers). The spokesperson can be a company employee or someone hired by
the company, perhaps a celebrity or "expert" who has credibility with the
target audience. One common use of the media tour is the book tour, where an
author travels the country to promote a newly released book. A media tour
may include other kinds of personal appearances in conjunction with special
-

16/54
PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
events, such as public appearances, speaking engagements or autograph
signing opportunities.
3. Newsletters
Marketers who have captured names and addresses of customers and
potential customers can use a newsletter for regular contact with their targeted
audience. Newsletters can be directed at trade customers, final consumers or
business buyers and can be distributed either by regular mail or electronic
means (i.e., e-newsletters delivered via email or rss feed). Marketers using
newsletters strive to provide content of interest to customers as well as
information on products and promotions. A bookstore may include reviews of
new books, information on online book chats and information on in-store or
online promotions. A food manufacturer may include seasonal recipes,
information on new products and coupons. Online newsletters offer the
opportunity to link to stores carrying the marketer's products. Effective
newsletters are sought out by and well received by interested audiences.
4. Special Events
These run the gamut from receptions to elegant dinners to stunts.
Special events can be designed to reach a specific narrow target audience, such
as individuals interested in college savings plans to major events like astrawberry festival designed to promote tourism and regional agriculture.
Stunts, such as building the worlds largest ice cream sundae during National
Ice Cream month captures the attention of an audience in the immediate area,

but also attracts the attention of mass media such as TV news and major
newspapers, which provide broad reach. The Oscar Mayer Weiner mobile is a
classic example, providing a recognizable icon that travels the country
garnering attention wherever it visits. As with all PR programs, special event
planners must work hard to ensure the program planned conveys the correct
message and image to the target audience.
5. Speaking Engagements
Speaking before industry conventions, trade association meetings, and
other groups provides an opportunity for company experts to demonstrate their
expertise to potential clients/customers. Generally these opportunities are not
explicitly for company or product promotion; rather they are a chance to talk
on a topic of interest to potential customers and serve to highlight the
speakers expertise in a field. Often the only mention of the company or its
products is in the speaker biography. Nevertheless, the right speaking
engagement puts the company in front of a good target audience and offersnetworking opportunities for generating customer leads.
6. Sponsorships
Companies and brands use sponsorships to help build goodwill and
brand recognition by associating with an event or group. Marketers can
examine sponsorship opportunities to find those that reach target groups, fit
within a specified budget and provide sponsorship benefits that suit the
-
8/8/2019 Pr and Median Planning in Gen
18/54
PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
marketers objectives. There are numerous local, regional, national and
international sponsorship opportunities ranging from a local art center or
theatre to the Olympics. Most organizations seeking company sponsors
provide information on the variety of sponsorship levels which include data on
event audience, exposure opportunities, which can include signage, T-shirts,
public announcements and numerous other opportunities, receptions and much
more. Marketers can use this information to help match sponsorship
opportunities with the companys objectives.
7. Employee Communications
For many companies communicating regularly with employees is
important in keeping employees informed of corporate programs, sales
incentives, personnel issues, as well as keeping them updated on new products
and programs. Companies use a variety of means to communicate with
employees, including Intranet, email, online and print newsletters. In larger
firms an in-house PR department often works in conjunction with the HumanResources Department to develop employee communications.
8. Community Relations and Philanthropy
For many companies fostering good relations with key audiences
includes building strong relationships with their regional community.
Companies implement programs supportive of the community ranging from
-
8/8/2019 Pr and Median Planning in Gen
19/54
PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
supporting local organizations and institutions (e.g., arts organizations,
community activities, parks) to conducting educational workshops (e.g., for
teachers, parents) to donating product for community events and charitable
fundraisers. The goal is generally to develop a positive relationship with
members of the community (i.e., be known as a good neighbour). Effective
community relations can help a company weather bad publicity or a crisis
situation that can unexpectedly arise due to a problem with a product,
unethical behavior by management, or even by false rumors. Some companies
also make an effort to contribute to charitable organizations, often
organizations that have some relationship to the companys mission or to a key principal of the company.
Advantages of Public Relations
-
8/8/2019 Pr and Median Planning in Gen
20/54
PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
Public relations offers several advantages not found with other
promotional options. First, PR is often considered a highly credible form of
promotion. One of PRs key points of power rests with helping to establish
credibility for a product, company or person (e.g., CEO) in the minds of
targeted customer groups by capitalizing on the influence of a third-party -- the
media. Audiences view many media outlets as independent-party sources that
are unbiased in their coverage, meaning that the decision to include the name
of the company and the views expressed about the company is not based on
payment (i.e., advertisement) but on the media outlets judgment of what is
important. For example, a positive story about a new product in the businesssection of a local newspaper may have greater impact on readers than a full-
page advertisement for the product since readers perceive the news media as
presenting an impartial perspective of the product.
Second, a well-structured PR campaign can result in the target market
being exposed to more detailed information than they receive with other forms
of promotion. That is, media sources often provide more space and time for explanation of a product.
Third, depending on the media outlet, a story mentioning a company
may be picked up by a large number of additional media, thus, spreading a
single story to many locations.
Finally, in many cases public relations objectives can be achieved at
very low cost when compared to other promotional efforts. This is not tosuggest public relations is not costly, it may be, especially when a marketer
hires PR professionals to handle the work. But when compared to the direct
-
8/8/2019 Pr and Median Planning in Gen
21/54
PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
cost of other promotions, in particular advertising, the return on promotional
expense can be quite high.
Disadvantages of Public Relations
While public relations holds many advantages for marketers, there are
also concerns when using this promotional technique. First, while public
relations uses many of the same channels as advertising, such as newspapers,
magazines, radio, TV and Internet, it differs significantly from advertising in
that marketers do not have direct control over whether a message is deliveredand where it is placed for delivery. For instance, a marketer may spend many
hours talking with a magazine writer, who is preparing an industry story, only
to find that their company is never mentioned in the article.
Second, while other promotional messages are carefully crafted and
distributed as written through a pre-determined placement in a media vehicle,
public relations generally conveys information to a member of the news media
(e.g., reporter) who then recrafts the information as part of a news story or
feature. Thus, the final message may not be precisely what the marketer
planned.
Third, while a PR campaign has the potential to yield a high return on
promotional expense, it also has the potential to produce the opposite if the
news media feels there is little value in running a story pitched (i.e., suggested
via communication with the news outlet) by the marketer.
Fourth, with PR there is always a chance that a well devised news
event or release will get bumped from planned media coverage because of a
-
8/8/2019 Pr and Median Planning in Gen

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
more critical breaking news story, such as wars, severe weather or serious
crime.
Finally, in some areas of the world the impact of traditional news
outlets is fading forcing public relations professionals to scramble to find new
ways to reach their target markets.
MEDIUMS FOR PR
Letters
Letters which enable one person to reach another despite the limitations
of time that can cut down on personal visits and telephoning, are among the
most ancient and perhaps still the most important media of mass
communications. It has been said that letters are the only selling medium that,if taken away, would disrupt the entire modem business structure.
They are sent out with every kind of enclosure; pamphlets and leaflets,
order blanks, samples, pictures, return post cards, and many others. Mail is a

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
personal thing. A person likes to receive a letter written for him as well as
addressed to him. He likes to express regard for him ,offer him a better job,
make a promise or enclose a cheque. When a publicist sends out a letter
written for the client's benefit rather than for the recipient's, privacy is being
presumed upon. The recipient may resent it. He may throw the letter away
without reading it, or read it only to turn
against the writer.
1. Telephone
A telephone call is more effective than a letter as a last minute reminder or an incitement to action. The telephone is good for getting a person to do
something he should do although he might prefer not to such as attending a
meeting. He can dodge a letter more easily than the personal commitment of a
personal conversation. But for a technical or monetary commitment both
parties will find it advisable to put it in writing to seal the telephone
agreement.
The secret of success in a large-scale telephone campaign is to obtain
reliable telephone operators - people with pleasing telephone personalities and
the persistence to keep after each number until they actually reach the proper
party and drive the message home.
2. Word of Mouth
Word of mouth spreads like wild fire. If the subject and content are
right, it can burst into spontaneous combustion just as an entire forest may
suddenly be overrun by conflagration. Through word of mouth, rumour and
-

24/54
PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
innuendo may spread with extreme speed and spontaneity if the subject is
close to the emotion of people. Feeling and thought must quickly take wing on
word of mouth. In stimulating a word-of-mouth campaign the important thing
is to present subject matter of such interest as to cause people to repeat it to
others.
3. Newsletter
The commercial field has long made good use of newsletters. These
have a bright future. Newsletters tend to fit the times these days. People have
fragmented interests. There are certain things they want to know a lot about,and other things they don't want to hear anything about.Newsletters have the
advantage of speed. They are quick to read.
The public relations use of newsletters is spreading rapidly into non-
profit fields as well. Associations and professional societies particularly find
the formal effective. Its use in politics and lobbying is burgeoning. With this
format, users can reach constituents quickly on matters having both urgency
and importance. The person-to-person nature invites reading.
4. Post Cards
Post cards are quick and easy to prepare, quick and easy for the recipient
to absorb, economical to mail to constituents and an effective adaptation of
direct mail to reach large numbers of people with a message that can be
punched home in a paragraph.
In many campaigns, a large number of individuals can be stimulated to
sign and then send post cards to their own friends and contacts. This personal
-

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
touch has more influence with the recipient than would a communiqu from a
stranger.
5. Public Address System
Public address systems at meetings, shows, gathering of employees or
mass audiences of any kind make it possible mechanically to project he human
voice before a large number of people.
Mounted on a mini truck or other mobile auto, the public address system
can be transported from place to place, presenting speakers and programmes as
it goes, and reaching a widely distributed audience. Sound tracks can also berigged up at programmes in lieu of a permanently installed public address
system. A portable bullhorn affords great mobility wherever amplified sound
is needed.
6. Charts
Charts are by far the most-used visual aid. A chart may be painted,
printed or drawn. It must be large enough and simple enough to be seen and
comprehended in the presentation setting.
7. Flannel Boards
Flannel Boards consist of aboard covered with felt. Sticky-backed
visuals are placed on the surface, allowing a speaker to put some movement
and flexibility into an otherwise static presentation.
8. Magnetic Boards
-
8/8/2019 Pr and Median Planning in Gen
26/54
PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
Magnatic Boards are much like flannel boards, except that magnets
permit the use of heavier three dimensional visuals.
9. Video Cassette, Audio Cassette and Disc Recordings
These are useful in overcoming some of the difficulties of working with
a diffuse and loose-knit organisation. They assure that all concerned get
exactly the same message with the desired visual and/or audio emphasis.
Generally, these video cassettes, audio cassettes or disc communications,
though carefully prepared, are modest in technique. Intentionally, they do not
have the ambitious-or cost-associated with full scale productions.
10. Electro writers
An executive or a demonstrator can write his 'blackboard' notes across a
longdistance through a transmitter unit hooked up by telephone lines with a
projector unit and screen.
11. Tele Lecture
This is a useful technique for making an audio/visual presentation at a
distance. With the help of the telephone company there is a hook-up from a
speaker's office, a meeting or classroom, where visuals can be shown while the
speaker is heard. Members of the audience can question the speaker through a
two-way hook-up. This permits the speaker to 'appear' at many locations

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
without the full time or expense of going there, and it permits remote groups to
engage speakers they otherwise would not attract.
12. Facsimile
It sends between distant cities via telephone lines, exact copies of
blueprints, layouts, and other visual materials- It is now used increasingly to
transmit copy between the offices of an agency and clients or between an
organisation and a communications medium.
PLANNING PROCESS OF PR
Public relations is not merely a process of getting stories and pictures
into newspapers. It is much more. It has to be properly planned, orderly
executed, and a number of details need careful attention. Public relations costs
money, requires manpower, needs expertise, and consumes time and resources.
So it should be
well planned and executed in an orderly manner.

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
PR Objectives
The first step is to set out clearly the PR objectives before any campaign
is launched. The publicist must have a clear idea as to what is intended to be
achieved. His approach should be positive and purposeful:
Publics
The next step is to decide who is the audience to be reached i.e. local,
regional, national, or international. And apart from geographical area, it should
be considered if any specialized audience or a section of the community or
professional people is also to be reached.
Message
After deciding the public the company has to decide what message they
want to pass through the campaign, what is it they want the people to know
about them or what they want to tell or inform the public about.
1. Strategy
A strategy is a long term planning or the methods that a company
adopts to make itself a successful company. For a PR campaign also strategies
are required to be formed to so that they can create an impact or impression in
the minds of the people; as well as they can build a fair and favourable image
in the market.\
Tactics
Along with a good strategy a company also needs to use some very good
tactics for its campaign because there are competitors in the market and the
company has to stand on top of all of them.
-

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
Time Scale
The public has to decide the time scale in which they will complete the
campaign. They have to set a specific time. Also the decision about the
commencement of campaign, duration, repetition, etc. is to be made well in
time.
Resources
The publicist has also to think about the resources in terms of money
and staff available to him. The campaign has to be planned keeping in view the
resources which the publicist would be able to mobilize.
Selection of Media/Resources
Another point that requires a decision is about the media to be employed
for the campaign: whether publicity is to be conducted with one medium or
more than one or through multimedia.
Evaluation
After deciding upon the above things the publicist should evaluate thewhole process to check whether everything is properly being done or not or
whether they have to add anything else or not, etc.
Review
After evaluation again there should be a review of the entire thing to
give it a final check.

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
Analysis
After the campaign there should be an analysis of the entire process sp
that they will come to know whether the campaign was successful or not and if
not then where it went wrong. If any draw backs are pointed out then again
the whole process is repeated from the point of identifying the publics.

Media planning is about determining the best Media Mix (i.e., the best
combination of one-way and two-way media) to reach a particular target for a
particular brand situation.
WHO IS A MEDIA PLANNER ?
Media Planner : The person at the advertising agency who develops and
executes your media plan.
Media planners perform four basic functions:
1. Conduct media research
2. Determine media objectives and strategies
3. Determine the media mix
4. Do the actual media buy
Various Functions in Media Planning in Advertising?
Proper media planning enables the selection of the right media:
selection of the right media is crucial in the entire planning process. How best
can I reach my target audience? Is the question kept in mind? .It helps to
allocate the advertising funds to the right products in the right media: for
example, ads for chocolates will be placed in a slot where there is maximum
children viewer ship. And channels like Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network or
between 5-7 pm when most children watch cartoons.
It indicates the period or the season in which the advertiser need to
concentrate advertising efforts: for example all the paint advertisements
concentrate on the festive seasons. A few months before the festival like

Media Planning Process
Media planning is the process of designing a course of action that
shows howadvertising space and time will be used to contribute to the
achievement of the marketing and advertising objectives.
The media plan is created by the media planner from information about
the market and prospective customers. Media decisions are primarily based on
the creative strategy established for the campaign and the characteristics of the
target market. Through market research, facts about the target market are
accumulated and generalized into a consumer profile. This along with the basic
copy strategy and copy requirements is analysed by the media planner, taking
into account the size of the advertising budget.
This analysis is followed by matching the audience characteristics of
various media with the consumer profile and by evaluating the adaptability of
the physical format of the media to copy requirements. Finally, through the
exercise of judgment concerning dimensions of coverage, reach, frequency,
continuity, ad size the media plan emerges.
With all the advertising decision making the ultimate responsibility for
choosing media rests with the advertising/ brand manager.
The Media Planning Steps?
There are 5 steps in the Media planning process:
1. Market analysis
2. Media objectives
3. Media strategies
-

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
4. Media Mix
5. Budget and Media Buying
Step one: Market Analysis
Activities involved in developing the Market analysis :
a. Situation analysis
b. Marketing strategy analysis
c. Creative strategy analysis
Step 2: Setting Media ObjectivesPurpose: To translate marketing objectives and strategies into goals that
media can accomplish. Setting media objective is the second step in
media planning. Media objectives are in harmony with the
advertising and the marketing plans. Thus while launching a new
product or repositioning an existing product, there are specific
objectives which will guide our media decisions. These objectivesmust be measurable. It facilitates Co-ordination and evaluation once
the campaign is over.
There are broadly five elements in media objective statements:
1. Target Audience
2. Reach
3. Frequency
4. Message Weight
5. Message Distribution
-

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
1. Target Audience: How to reach
Which is the audience for our product? This happens to be the most
important consideration in the media decisions. We first examineour market plans and advertising plans. These provide us details
about the audience in terms of age, religion, sex, education these
are demographic characteristics.
After having a complete picture of our target audience, we undertake the study
of the medias readership in terms of demographic, economic and
psychographics terms.
2. Reach
It indicates a percentage of target audience who is exposed at least once
in a given period to a particular media vehicle. It does not matter how many
times they actually see or hear the ad message.The objective of reaching target
audience is calculated irrespective of the fact whether these people have taken
cognizance of our ad.
3. Frequency
It indicates the number of times people in the target audience are
exposed to a media vehicle during a given period of time. Average frequency
gives the average number of times people or households in our target audience
are exposed to a media vehicle.Average Frequency = Total Number of Exposures
Total Audience Reach
-
8/8/2019 Pr and Median Planning in Gen

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
Message Weight
It is the sum of the reach number of specific media vehicles in a given
media plan gives the message weight . Here while summing the reach,duplication or o verlapping is ignored . Message weight is expressed in
terms of gross impressions or gross rating points (GRP).
Message weight
The total size of the audience for a set of ads or an entire
campaign .
Message weight can be expressed as:
a. Opportunity to see: The possible exposure of the advertising message to
one audience member is called an opportunity to see (OTS).
b. Gross Impressions: It is the total number of potential exposures (audience
size by the number of times the ad message is used during a period). Suppose
an advertiser puts advertisements on a programme of a TV channel viewed
five times by 6000 people in the target audience and seven times by 6000
people in a four week period.c. Televisions households: Because gross impressions are often expressed in
millions and are awkward to handle, media planners prefer to use percentages -
or a rating, for example, a rating of TV households is the percentage of homes
exposed to an ad medium.
d. Gross Rating Points (GRPs) - the total weight of a specific media
schedule, computed by multiplying the reach, expressed as a percentage of the population, by the average frequency.GRP is the combined measure of reach
and frequency indicating the weight of a media plan.
-

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
GRP: A unit of audience measurement, commonly used in the audio-visual
media, based on reach or coverage of an ad. A single GRP, usually, represents
1 per cent of the total audience in a given region. For a mass media like a TV
channel, message weight is expressed in gross rating points (GRPs). Television
Rating points (TRPs) are available in India calculated on the basis of the panel
method. The ultimate business of TV is to deliver the eyeballs. It is obviously
an issue of audience share. This will help us realize our advertising plan. Once
the media objectives are set, we are ready to develop strategies to realize them.
Message Distribution:
This objectives define where, when, and how often advertising
should appear. To answer these questions, a media planner must
understand the following:
Audience size - Simply the number of people in the medium's audience. In
print media, for example, Audit Bureau of Circulation actually counts and
verifies the number of subscribers (circulation) and multiplies by the number
of readers per copy (RPC) to determine total audience.

Step 3: Media Strategy
Media strategy is the way we seek to realize our media objectives.
When formulated correctly, it enables an advertiser to rise above the
clutter of ads, and stand out in the competition. Media strategy
expects media planners to be creative in using the media. The use of
the media should complement and supplement each other.
Factors Influencing Media Strategy
Target Market Profile
Nature of the Message
Geographic Market Priorities
Timing of Advertising
Reach/Frequency/Continuity
Media strategy has to cover decisions taken in the areas of:
Geographic selectivity
Scheduling of the ads
Media selection
Cost efficiency of the selected media.

Geographic Selectivity
Our media strategy is based upon our market coverage. If we
market our products nationally, we will select all-India newspapers
and magazines. We have to see how strong a product is in a
particular geographical region and advertise more in high potential
areas. Marketers may measure the sales strength in particular
market by making use of two ratios the brand development index
and the category development index.
Brand Development Index:
BDI = Percentage of brands total all India sales in the market x 100
Percentage of total Indian population in the market.
Category Development Index:
CDI = Percentage of product categorys total all India sales x 100
Percentage of total Indian

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
Media scheduling decisions are the decisions about the timing, continuity and
size of the ads. They have to see when to advertise, for how long, and for what time period. They have to see the size and placement of our ad.
Most Organizations Use One of These Three Scheduling
Strategies
Three Scheduling Methods
Continuity: When an ad is run in the media for a long period without any
gap, we are using continuity scheduling . It is used for those products,
which are in demand round the years. The ads are in the form of
reminder.
Alternative to continuity is fighting where advertising runs for some
period and then there is a gap, and again it runs for some period. The
interval between two advertising runs comes after a flight.
Pulsing is another option It represents a consistent low-level advertising
activity, and addition of pulse to make a high-level of advertising
during certain periods. A pulse is a period of intense advertising
activity. The pulses can occur at the start while launching a new
product.

Selecting the Media
An advertiser can choose a single medium or a mix of media to take its
message to the target audience. Media mix a combination of severalmedia is used when it is not possible to reach the target audience by one
single medium adequately and with a good impact. Marketers segment a
market, and a suitable media can be chosen to match a specific segment.
Each media has a particular readership or viewer ship. We have to
understand the size and the characteristics of the readership or viewer
ship.
Cost Efficiency of selected Media:
The cost of advertising in various media must be analyzed properly. We
have to compare the cost of different media. It helps us select the best
media to optimize our objectives. Cost per thousand (CPM) is one yard-
stick to compare the costs of different media. It is the cost of reaching a
thousand persons.
The formula for CPM is:
Cost per Thousand = Cost of media unit x 1000

Step four: Selecting Media Mix
Media mix means the advertising strategy encompasses the use of more than one type of advertising media to get its message across thetarget audience. A combination of media types is known as the mediamix. No advertiser can rely only on one medium to reach hisaudience. Even a small advertiser having a small media budget hasthousands of media from which to choose. A typical media mix forconsumer products, such as a soft drink, will include television,outdoor, POP and even the print media. this combination plays a
crucial role in reaching the maximum number of consumers at theminimum cost. Once a media plan is ready, the decision is to be madeabout the media mix. Selecting the media mix involves severalconsiderations.

execution of this plan depends upon the following considerations:1. Budget

PUBLIC RELATION AND MEDIA PLANNING INGENESIS BURSON MARSTELLER
Genesis Burson-Marsteller had a long and fascinating journey that mirrors
the genesis of the Indian public relations industry. The idea of forming a public
relations company was seeded in 1989, when Priya Paul, of the Apeejay Surrendra
Group that owns the Park Hotel, approached , their founder, Prema Sagar , with an
offer to work on public relations projects to boost the popularity of the hotel. She
accepted the offer and thus was born the idea of Going Public at The Park, a
monthly event where people would come to interact with a high-profile person.
Soon followed Theatre at the Park, Cinema at the Park and Christmas at the
Park, attracting lots of people and media coverage and Premas journey in public
relations.Intrigued by the potential of public relations, She explored further and
chanced upon a book on Public Relations by Frank Jefkins. For her, reading the
book was an affirmation of all the facets of public relations that she was beginning
to love. So impacted was she by the book that she wrote to the author and ended up
attending the Frank Jefkins Institute of Public Relations in London to do a short
course on PR, eventually also topping her class.
She returned to India with a single mission: to start her own public relations
firm. And so, on November 1, 1992, a few days before her 39th birthday, Genesis
Public Relations was formally launched. Genesis Public Relations began as a
three-member team servicing three clients, including the Park Hotels, with whom
the relationship was to last a decade. From managing the Indo-British Partnership
Initiative in Mumbai to launch of Daewoos Cielo car in India to informing people
about the role of PR through articles in The Financial Express, each step taken by
Prema in the first five years was setting a solid foundation for Genesis. Less than
five years after it started, Prema decided it was time for Genesis to spread its wings

and expand operations, and for that it needed a stronger and more experienced
leadership team. Enter Ashwani Singla , presently CEO of Genesis. Ashwani,
brought a new focus to the firm. Systems were streamlined, technology was
harnessed, and individual goals aligned to the business strategy, with growth based
solely on meritocracy and learning and Genesis Public Relations was on its way
to become one of the most trusted agencies in the industry.
It's not surprising therefore, that when Burson Marsteller came hunting for a
new partner in 2006, the firm that outshone all others was Genesis Public
Relations, which went on to become Genesis Burson-Marsteller.
