(on the television and radio, ads are often known as commercials). agencies often produce alternative ads or commercials that are pre-tested in newspapers, television stations, etc. in different parts of a country before a final choice is made prior to a national campaign. the agency’s media planners have to decide what percentage of the target market they want to reach (how many people will be exposed to the ads) and the number of times they are likely to see them. advertising people talk about frequency or ots (opportunities to see) and the threshold effect – the point at which advertising becomes effective. the choice of advertising media is generally strongly influenced by the comparative cost of reaching 1,000 members of the target audience, the cost per thousand (often abbreviated to cmp, using the roman numeral for 1,000). the timing of advertising campaigns depends on factors such as purchasing frequency and buyer turnover (new buyers entering the market). 1) what is the best form of advertising and why? 2) what are the functions of advertisement? 3) why do companies tend to use services of advertising agencies?
