Magazine Advertising Improves
Return On Investment
Multiple studies, most notable the PPA’s Sales Uncovered, demonstrate that (to a point)
increasing magazines share of influence in the media mix improves ROI across a broad
range of categories. However, very few campaigns are ‘at that point’.
Sales Uncovered goes on to prove how much return on sales
an advertiser can expect from their magazine campaign.

Magazine Advertising Sells
Short Term Advertising Strength (STAS) identified that rating for rating magazine
advertising is equally as effective as television exposure at driving sales, when
each is used on its own. Of course, magazines do it all much cheaper.
PPA Sales Uncovered demonstrated that
that all other things being equal, exposure
to a magazine campaign will increase a
product’s sales revenue by 11.6%. 10.0%
