11. 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?

12. Media strategy is required to take decisions on the client investment
…And every investment has some Risk involved !

13. Hence, the need for currencies
to assess RISK

14. Terminologies used in Media

15. Reach (Coverage)
The percentage of the target audience (TG)
who saw the commercial at least once
during a given campaign period
TG is the set of viewer who have
similar profile and media habits
All Adults, 25+, SEC A Male , 25+, SEC AB Female, 25+, SEC AB
Basic understanding of concepts

17. Reach (Coverage)
Total TG= 6
TG which saw the
commercial= 4
Reach % = 4/6 *100
67%
Basic understanding of concepts

18. TV Rating
1 rating point = 1% of the Viewing.
Similar to REACH
Only differentiator is that TVRs are time weighted
Basic understanding of concepts

19. 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)
X 100
5
= 26%
Hence, viewership is a combination of REACH & TIME SPENT

20. Gross Rating Points (GRPs)
Programme
Rating
The sum of all ratings achieved in a campaign.
Basic understanding of concepts

21. Example : GRPs achieved for a particular Campaign
3 TVR
4.5 TVR
AKK
6 TVR 5 TVR
Laadli
Yeh
Bidaai Rishta

22. Gross Rating Points (GRPs)
Programme Rating
Laadli 4.5
Bidaai 6.0
Yeh Rishta 5.0
AKK 3.0
Total 18.5 GRP’s
Basic understanding of concepts

23. Average Frequency
The number of times, on an average, the
audience reached sees the commercial
during a given period.
Basic understanding of concepts

24. 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
Basic understanding of concepts

25. Question
350 GRPs and 7.0 Av Freq. = ? % Reach 50

38 % @ 6+
Basic understanding of concepts

27. 60 % @ 3+
60% of target audience will be able to
see the commercial at least 3 times
‘3’ is the Effective Frequency-
Frequency at which the advertising
will be effective
Basic understanding of concepts

28. Channel Share
Channel Share =
TVR of Channel/Daypart/ Programme X 100
Any Channel TVR within the same Daypart

29. Channel / Programme share
Channel Share : channel viewing as a percentage of
total TV viewing at the specified time
Program Share : program viewing as a percentage of total
TV viewing at the specified program time
80%
60%
40%
TV viewing

Program viewing
Basic understanding of concepts

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

36. The usage of the currency
Basic understanding of concepts

37. The CPRP / CPT game
CPRP: Cost per rating point
CPT: Cost per thousand
Basic understanding of concepts

38. CPRP
The cost of buying one rating point.
Formula : Cost ÷ TVR = Cost per TVR
In Practice : Rs. 220,000 ÷ 20 TVR
= Rs. 11,000 cost / TVR
Usually measured per 10 sec
Used as a planning / buying benchmark
Basic understanding of concepts

39. CPT
The cost of reaching a thousand viewers.
Formula : Cost ÷ TVR in’000 = Cost/thousand
In Practice: Rs 220,000 ÷ 40,000
= Rs 50 CPT
Basic understanding of concepts

40. Channel CPT
• Total GRPs – 1500
• Universe Size – 3mn
• Cost – 2 crores
• CPT = Cost
X 1000
GRP x Universe

• CPT = 444

41. Example – Channel CPT
Period- Annual 2008 2009
Cost (Rs) 250000000 250000000

53. 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).

95. Post Evaluation of a Campaign/Deal
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)
Planning to striking the deal

96. But a Post eval need not
always match the Pre eval?

97. 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
Planning to striking the deal

98. Issues
• Audience Fragmentation
– Natural drop in viewer interest
• Forecasting
• R/F focus of plans
– therefore all GRPs not same
• Selectivity
• Distribution / Connectivity control
Planning to striking the deal

99. Thank You!!
