High BDI and low CDI The category is not selling well, but the brand is; probably a good market to advertise in but should be monitored for declining sales. Low BDI and high CDI The product category shows high potential but the brand is not doing well; the reasons should be determined. Low BDI and low CDI Both the product category and the brand are doing poorly; not likely to be a good place for advertising. 31 Using Printing Media Newspaper rate -- SAUs (Standard Advertising Unites) in 1984 -- Flat rate v. open rate -- Run-of-paper v. preferred position rate -- Combination rate: several nps as a group -- National advertisers pay much more for newspaper space
