Media planning vs. Account planning

Both account planners and media planners place Consumers at the center of strategy. Account planners look at the entire consumer experience, while media planners focus on just media habits (but......digital media planners would say that if you understand a person's media habits, you will know their entire consumer experience). Both account planners and media planners use research to make strategic recommendations. Account planners have a slight preference for primary qualitative research. Media planners have a slight preference for secondary quantitative research (databases). Media planners first define the target market using secondary quantitative data (i.e. MRI). Account planners then use qualitative research (focus groups, interviews, observations) to give a more textured description of the target. Account planners figure out what to say (the creative brief), while media planners recommend where, when and how often that message will be distributed (the media plan ).

Do research, use surveys. Pick a client that is reliable Have to see if improved numbers Have to make sales increase not decrease

Problem with commission system

Does note relate to amount of quality of creative work not based on effectiveness of ad (sales, attitude, change) Media costs are the same to run the same ad or to create a different ad (no incentive to make new, multiple ads only to place ads) Incentive to put in high priced media vehicles agencies can get overextended if clients don't pay their bill to the agency

Alternative to commission system

Flat fee per campaign or project Hourly rate of employees billed at different salary rates Markup charges ( production cost + fixed percent) value based (price for ideas) Based on other (communication) campaign objectives based on sales combination of all the above

Questions that competitive spending analysis might answer

How does your client's advertising budget compare to the competition? What is the ranking of competitive brands in terms of advertising spending? What brands spends the most in the category? The least? How much money is required for a new product introduction? How much money is required to be competitive in this category? How does the competition allocate dollars across various media? Looking at the category, is there a medium that is not used? Is there one medium where most of the dollars are spent? Does one brand dominate a specific medium? What could this suggest about their target audience, strategy? What is the seasonality of competitive spending? (When do brands advertise?) When are competitors rolling out new brands? or testing products? (increase spending during this time)

Media Objective

How many people do I need to REACH? (this is a percentage) How often (FREQUENCY)? How many times should a person be exposed to the ad? In what time interval must these exposures occur? When (schedule)? When should people be exposed to the ad (schedule: time of day, time of week, time of month, time of year)? Where (geography)? In which local/national (markets/regions) should the ads appear? What is the relative importance of each market/region?

Limitations of a competitive spending analysis

Incomplete data--does not reflect all of the money spent by the competition (research, production costs, some types of paid advertising, earned advertising, owned advertising, etc.) Does not reflect special pricing discounts that an advertiser might have received from the media Easy to just imitate strategy of market leaders Encourages use of past data to make future plans
