Simply Put Media Strategy Is

1. Target Audience- Who to target?2. Target Markets- Which markets to go to?3. Media Weights- How many audience to

reach – how many times?4. Media Mix- Which media to use?5. Scheduling- When to advertise?

Media strategy is required to take decisions on the client investment

…And every investment has some Risk involved !

Hence, the need for

currencies

to assess RISK

Terminologies used in Media

The percentage of the target audience (TG)

who saw the commercial at least once during a

given campaign period

Reach (Coverage)

Reach (Coverage)

Total TG= 6

TG which saw the

commercial= 4

Reach % = 4/6 *100

67%


1 rating point = 1% of the Viewing.

TV Rating

Similar to REACHOnly differentiator is that TVRs are time

weighted


TVR

Total time viewed : 10 min 0 min 4min 0 min 25min

Time spent 10/30 0 4/30 0 25/30

Program TVR = (10/30) + ( 4/30) + (25/30)

5= 26%

Hence, viewership is a combination of REACH & TIME SPENT

X 100

Gross Rating Points (GRPs)

The sum of all ratings achieved in a campaign.

The number of times, on an average,

the audience reached sees the

commercial during a given period.

Average Frequency


Average Frequency

Formula : Average Frequency =Total GRPs ÷ Reach

In Practice : 120 GRP’s ÷ 50% reach = 2.4

50% of target audience will see the commercial for 2.4 times on an average

Share amongst competing channels (Genre Share)

• Share of viewing can also be compared within genre or competitive set– same data but comparison within a new base

• For e.g:– Last week STAR Plus took 12% share of total

viewing in cable homes in HSMOR

– Last week STAR Plus took 30% share of GEC entertainment channel share in cable homes...

The usage of the currency


The CPRP / CPT game

CPRP: Cost per rating

point

CPT: Cost per thousand


CPRP

The cost of buying one rating point.

Usually measured per 10 sec

Used as a planning / buying benchmark

Formula : Cost ÷ TVR = Cost per TVR

In Practice : Rs. 220,000 ÷ 20 TVR = Rs. 11,000 cost / TVR


CPT

Formula : Cost ÷ TVR in’000 = Cost/thousand

In Practice: Rs 220,000 ÷ 40,000 = Rs 50 CPT

The cost of reaching a thousand viewers.


Channel CPT

• Total GRPs – 1500• Universe Size – 3mn• Cost – 2 crores• CPT = Cost

Understanding TAM


Start of TAM

• Started in 1998 when the TV industry pie was only Rs. 1500 crores

• Started with 1800 meters in 9 cities

TAM operations : A snapshot

• Across 148 towns in India

• Panel comprising 7000 homes

Imagine asking 35,000+ individuals every

minute, 365 days of the year what they watch!

• Viewing monitored for ~ 250 active channels

Data on-line to research company Handset


What can we find out from the peoplemeter data ?

• Peoplemeters report viewing on a continuous basis

• Peoplemeter reports viewing every minute of the day.

• This means viewing data can be analysed in great detail and over time (trends).

To Measure Advertising spends

TAM Adex

2. To understand the activity of different category/Clients across

media

1. Advertising spends are measured to arrive at the competitors

strategy


…and how is the data useful?

• Share of Expenses (SOE)• Clients/Categories active on air• Clutter levels• Fill levels• Time-band focus• Seasonality• Promo Support (Tagons)• Detailed category/competitive analysis


Category Report• Data Available

– Channel/Genre-wise FCT consumption – By Category/Client

• How to read the data?– What categories/advertisers are present on competition and not on

our channels?– Are they consuming higher sec on competitive channels/networks?– Understanding profile of advertisers

• Niche Vs Mass ( Frequency vs Reach)• Will give insights into their TG profile• Use for pushing ‘similar TG profile’ properties to clients

• Defining Competition– Need not just be direct (GEC vs GEC, Hindi Movies vs Hindi

Movies)– Why is an advertiser/category present on english ent but not eng

mov?

Connectivity?

Its all about being connected


What is connectivity?

Cable Operator

Type of TV Set

Cable Home


Connectivity depends on

1. Type of TV set

2. Cable operator


What are the different bands?

1. Prime Band2. Colour Band3. S-Band4. Hyper Band5. UHF Band


How does Connectivity effect our lives?

• Availability of a channel in a certain band decides the extent of its coverage

– E.g – If a channel is available in the PRIME band it reaches all TV owning households

• Higher the connectivity, more the eyeballs for the channel


Media Plan Making

Plan Making

• Plan is constructed on historical data i.e basis the data for last few weeks

• Plan objective is set in terms of GRP, Reach @ Frequency, Plan CPRP

• Evaluation parameters – Channel Shares– Programme/Break TVR – Programme CPRP (basis break ratings)– Plan GRP– Plan Reach (At effective frequency – 3+/4+/6+)– Plan AOTS

Monitoring report of the Campaign(channels, programs, # spots, GRPs, R/F)

Map the above output with the Pre-eval output

Check for discrepancies(spot droppage, TVR fluctuations, CPRPs)

Post Evaluation of a Campaign/Deal


But a Post eval need not

always match the Pre

eval?

Pre & Post• Post Eval

– Usually calculated based on delivery of actual spots

– Alternatively, based on Programme / Break performance etc.

• Pre Eval

– Multiple approaches to calculating performance

– Programme Rating with Filters, Break Rating, Minute Rating, Commercial Rating etc


Issues

• Audience Fragmentation – Natural drop in viewer interest

• Forecasting• R/F focus of plans

– therefore all GRPs not same

• Selectivity• Distribution / Connectivity control
