Media measurement concepts
Household using television (HUT) reperesents the total percentage of homes (or people)
in a market that are watching TV at a given point in time (potential audience size)
A broadcast rating (TV/radio) represents an estimate of the percent of people who views a
program or have tuned in during a specific time period. This rating is determined through
sampling procedure
It’s important to remember that although ratings can be reported for households,
planners most often use ratings for people viewing programs. Such ratings usually are
broken down by various age and gender demographic groups
Share of audience: reflects the percentage of homes tuned-into a program based on only
those homes that had their sets turned on (Rating = HUT/Share)
HUT ~ SUM of ratings
Rating = HUT * Share
Share = Rating/HUT
HUT = Rating/Share
Measuring audiences to advertising vehicles
Cost-efficiency means that audience size must be related to media costs. Measuring this
efficiency is done through cost per thousand, cost per rating point, or both.
Cost per thousand (CPM) is the cost to deliver 1,000 people or homes. It is calculated by
deviding the cost by the audience and multiplying the quotient by 1,000. The audience base
can be circulation, homes reached, readers, or number of audience members of any kind of
demographic, or product usage classification. CPM is comparable device which enables
planners to compare one medium or media vehicle with another to find those that are the
most efficient (intramedia & intermedia comparisions)
Cost per rating point (CPP) measures the cost of one household or demographic rating point
in a given market which is calculated by deviding the cost per commercial, or spot, by the
rating. A rating is the percent of target audience in a market that is tuned in during the
average minute or quarter hour of a program. A market is the geographic area that can
receive the program.

Gross rating point - GRP
Gross impression is the same concept as GRP with the exception that the audience is expressed
in terms of thousands of viewers instead of as a percentage of the population. So gross
impression is the simple addition of the viewing audience in thousands each time the
commercial is shown.
Two methods of calculating Gross impression: (1) multiply GRPs by the target audience base; (2)
add the target audience impressions by each vehicle
GRPs/Impressions are the simple addition of the rating or impressions each time the ad appears.
They do not account for duplication, GRPs frequently exceed 100 (500 GRPs/week with heavy
campaign)
The use of gross impression for print media is the same as broadcast.
When working with different geographic areas, it is correct to add impressions but planners can
not add the GRPs 22.8% of Hanoi plus 70% of HCM city
The concept of GRP is central to media planning because it is the basis for determining the cost.
Reach
• Sainsbury model
Reach = a + b – (ab)
• Random duplication: numerous studies have shown that duplication
between different mass media is random. Assume that the Reach of the
TV commercial was 65% and the Reach of the magazine campaign was
54%. Random duplication assumes that if 65% of the target saw TV
commercial, then 65% of the people who saw the magazine also saw the
TV. Some saw only TV commercial, some saw only the magazine and
some, the duplicated saw both the TV and magazine. The last section
must be substracted so we do not count them twice.
Reach = 0.65 + 0.54 – (0.65 x 0.54)
• Reach is calduplicationculated by computer. There is no way to estimate
non random.
How Reach is built?
When a campaign starts out, very few people have seen the advertising. Each new telecast reaches mostly people
who have never seen it before and reach rises quickly. As the campaign becomes more mature, there are fewer and
fewer new prospects to expose. Reach rises more slowly with additional rating points. Meanwhile, the number of
people exposed more than once increases, and frequency increases. That frequency can be expressed either as
average frequency (GRP/reach) or as the percent of the target exposed at least a certain number of times (Exhibit 5-
15)
The percent of the target exposed at least a certain number of times used to show ”effective reach” of a campaign. If
a planner decide his/her comercial must be seen at least three times to be effective then he/she would say “At 500
GRPs, 53% of the target if reached at 3 + (plus) times.
Effective Frequency
Although Reach shows how many people are exposed to the ads, it does not
tell the planner whether the ads will lead to increased sales or other desired
results of the ad campaign.
After audience perceived the same ad at a second time, they will ask “what of
it?” On the second exposure, consumers then react to the commercial and
begin to compare alternative brands.
The third exposure is a reminder of the other two and the beginning of a time
where consumers tune out the additional exposures.
