Advertising Strategy, Expenditure and Analysis: Broadcast and Cable vs. the New Platforms: Broadband, Social Networks, Mobile, VOD & PVR
More than ever, in this challenging economy, agencies and brand managers are faced with a dual problem. First and foremost, they must get the best bang for their buck in reaching their target audience. At the first fork in the road they must choose between the traditional ad markets of TV, cable and print, versus the new technologies, from broadband to mobile. Once that decision has been made, understanding how to allocate within the choice-structure of new media broadband, social media, search, mobile, ITV etc. must be determined. The advertising choices of 2010 will be a fascinating reflection of the state of the actual economy as well as the trending attitudes toward the new media platforms.
