1⁄4 Hour is the trading currency or the audience data set that is used when buying (advertising spots). When the
spot you’ve bought in a program goes to air it appears at an exact minute, for example 2032, but when you
were forecasting the audience you would have been using a 1⁄4 hour average, for example, 2030-2045.

75
Q

MxM data (Elemental data)

Q

TARPs

A

A TARP stands for Target Audience Rating Point. It is always expressed as a %.

The TARP outlines the % of your
buying target audience that is watching the TV program. This is the average viewing audience for a
demographic expressed as a percentage of the relevant Universe Estimate.

Calculation: Average Audience/Potential x 100

Example: If you had a buying target audience of Women 25-54, and 12% of this total target audience (the
potential) watched Home and Away in Melbourne, the TARP would be 12.

If the Potential for Women 25-54 is 1,120,000 and of those 134,000 are watching Home and Away, the TARP is
calculated as 134,000 / 1,120,000 *100 = 12% expressed as 12 TARPs.

96
Q

GRP or total TARPs

A

The total sum of the individual TARPs by spot, by market. (TARPs cannot be measured across markets e.g.
you cannot add Sydney TARPs to Melbourne TARPs etc).

GRP or Total TARPs are used to indicate the total weight or impact of your total TV schedule.

Example:
Market : Sydney
● Spot 1 (Better Homes & Gardens) TARP = 5
● Spot 2 (Bachelor) TARP = 6
● Spot 3 (Sport) TARP = 3
Total TARPS = 14

97
Q

Average Frequency

A

The average number of times the target audience is exposed to your Television commercial.

Average Frequency
is a goal in TV buying as it outlines how many times the TVC (Television Commercial) is seen on average.

Calculation: Total TARPs/Reach%

Example:
Total TARPs is 50
Reach is 40%
(Total TARPs) 50 divided by (Reach %) 40 = 1.25x (Average Frequency).

98
Q

Effective Frequency

A

Is the number of exposures such as 1+ or 2+ etc. This is necessary for an advertising message to produce it’s
desired effect.

There is no set rule for what the Effective Frequency is.

This is an individual advertiser goal based on many
different elements ie the size of their advertising category, the number of competitors within that category, the
strength of the TVC and the length of the TVC (15 seconds through to 60 seconds), product launch, less engaging
product (toilet cleaner), more engage product (new Mascara) etc.

Q

Potential

A

Potentials (Universe Estimates) are the total number of people within a target audience and location.

The estimated population against which television audiences are calculated. Potential or UEs are based on data
from both the OzTAM survey and the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).

Example: There may be 900,000 People aged 25-54 in Sydney, so 900,000 is the potential for that target
audience and market.

100
Q

Reach

A

Reach is one of the main metric’s by which we measure the performance of the TV campaign, it refers to the
percentage of people within the target audience that we are planning to reach in a campaign.

Calculation: Reach/Universe Estimates (Potential) x 100%

Example: If your television campaign reached 650,000 women in Sydney aged 25-54 and the potential is
1,120,000 you would divide 650,000 into 1,120,000 *100 to get the reach in Sydney.

The Reach is therefore 58%.

101
Q

CPR

A

Cost per Reach refers to the cost of each reach point your television campaign will achieve.

Calculation: Total budget/Reach

Example: If your media plan had a reach goal of 40% 1+ in Sydney and the budget was $100,000, you would
divide the reach into the budget to get a cost per reach point which equals $2,500 CPR.

$100,000/40 = $2,500

102
Q

CPM

A

If a 30 second spot in the News costs $6,000, and the audience delivery against your target audience is
250,000, you divide 250 into $6,000 and the CPM is $24.

103
Q

CPT

A

Cost per TARP refers to the cost of reaching 1% (1 TARP) of people in the target audience group.

Calculation: Cost of spot/TARP

Example: If a 30 second spot in A Current Affair costs $8,000, and the TARP against your target audience is 5, you
divide 5 into $8,000 so the CPT is $1600.

104
Q

Audience/Projections/Thousands

A

The average number of people or homes in a target market who were watching a specific program each minute,
this is expressed in the full figure for that demographic.

Example: Women 25-54 watching Home and Away in Melbourne is 250,000, so this refers to the Audience
Projection.

105
Q

Share

A

  2. FTA Share - Share measured against FTA networks only (Seven, Nine, Ten, SBS, ABC).
  3. Commercial Share
    - Share measured against FTA commercial networks only (Seven, Nine, Ten, SBS)
106
Q

Position in Break (PIB)

A

This is where the advertising spot appears in the break within a television program.

Position in Break result will be shown by spot in your post analysis.
There is 3 sets of numbers for example,
2/5/6.

This refers to where your TVC is placed.

Example: The TVC appeared as the 2nd TVC in a break.
There were 5 TVCs in total in that break, and there were 6 ad breaks within that program.

The position your TVC is placed within a break can increase the recall or cut through of the TVC, so first and last
in break is considered the optimum placement.

Q

Peak: Off Peak (P/OP)

A

● Peak traditionally refers 1800-2230
● Off Peak is 0600-1800 and 2230-2400
