Advertising and Media
Do you need to sell a product or send a message out to a lot of people? It can be very hard to do. Most people do not know how to advertise something efficiently and correctly to create the best results. You should always understand the minds of your potential customers, visitors, or listeners. Never forget who you are and where you came from. It is ideal to turn to the media for help. You will have to pay, but you will be able to create the largest audience for your web site or product if you do a few investments. This is how all of the most famous companies became famous. You have to lose a little to gain a lot. But you are not guaranteed success, so be open to any tips you can get from more experienced campaigners.
The first place to go for advertising is traditionally the internet. On the internet, you will be able to find the cheapest and quickest advertising for your campaign. This may or may not make your web site famous, but it will get the word out to the computer using public. You will be able to find advertising as cheap as a dollar for a hundred clicks, but the cheaper the advertising, the less likely the advertising network will offer important features that will make every click or view count. If you are able to join an advertising network that allows you and your company to chose the audience that would take the most interest in your product or services. The most important thing is to get your message out to those who would benefit from your campaign.
There are other ways for you to spread the message of your campaign. If you find yourself ready to invest a bit more money, you can easily contact a magazine company who will be willing to place your advertisement in their magazine for a sum of money. The more famous the magazine, the more views it will get, however the more expensive your campaign will be. All companies start small, and if the right product and services find the right audience, there is a large chance that the campaign will become a success. Advertising is really a matter of knowing where your customers are and where you will have to go to find them.
Television advertising is the most effective option a campaign can have, because there are so many people who watch television that in the enormity of the audience, if there are people who would be interested in the product or services offered, it is very likely that if they do not view the advertisement, they will be told about it by a family or friend. The number one rule of advertising is do not get discouraged.

I need to know about advertising media planning and buying strategy?
I need to know what determines what strategy to adopt when planning or buying media. Special emphasis on ATL advertising and New Media advertising.
Hi There,
Congratulations for thinking ahead before applying a quick fix to your apparent awareness problem. Many great products failed to be proitable because they are spending too much in the wrong media to reach their users.
A great advertising or marketing needs to start somewhere. The right place to start before even thinking what to say and where to say it is to look at your product proposition. People in the industry call it USP ( Unique Selling Proposition). Analyse your product. Identify who would want it and why they need to want it. Be honest and identify the killer reason to make people want. Do not fall into the common trap of "my product has everything better" as usually it is not the case.
Then analyse the "who" element and what makes the decision to buy. Sometimes it is not the end user that makes the purchase decision.
Now you have identify who wants it and why they need to want it you can safely select your media.
It is most important to indentify what is most cost effective instead which is the cheaper one. How cost effective is measured by numbers of people IN YOUR WHO list that reads or it reaches( you can get it from the media audit for printed media like newspaper or estimates rom the publisher), how much you pay for it (production cost and distribution cost)and how many will respond to the ad(your creativity in ensuring that more people in your list to respond) . Average out with various media.
For ATL advertising just look at the survey report.
Good luck on the strategy.

Been doing this for ages.
In terms of new media, in the past we have tried to follow what the media plan is for traditional advertising, especially in Search marketing. For example, if there is a lot of TV activity planned for a certain month, we make sure that its reflected in Search marketing, and to some extent, Display marketing. Generally we find that people who see an advert on TV, hear it on the radio or see it in a newspaper/magazine, turn to the Internet to find out more information.
Therefore it is crutial that your product is easy to find when the consumer turns to the internet for more information.
In terms of stragety, we’d probably keep the same these going, use the same tag lines, and obviously use the same offer..and add a time senstive offer to encourage a fast purchase/signup.
