Impression/ Exposure/ Opportunity-to-see purpose
One opportunity for one individual to see an advertisement.
- Applies to any media
- Opportunity is the key term - there is no guarantee a viewer, reader or listener will actually be exposed to the ad
To measure the “tuned in” audience for and advertisement - what is the baseline likelihood that the message will enter consumer memory
- Every Ad has a fixed number of planned exposures, depending on the number of individuals in its audience
- An ad is said to “reach” a certain number of people on a number of occasions; or to provide a certain number of “impressions” or “opportunities” to see by each person.
Impression considerations
- An impression does not mean that the audience member really noticed the ad, only that he/she had the opportunity to see it (because he/she was nearby, had the TV, radio on or owns a copy of the magazine)
- Methodologies for estimating “impressions” or “opportunities to see” vary by type of media
- Impressions measure the media exposure not advertising exposure (with the exception of digital)
Impression Construction process
- Estimate and then measure the delivered audience for the ad-carrying medium
- Plan/check which issues/editions/TV programs/channels the advertisements were placed in
- Audience measurement firms (Nielsen) conduct surveys, observations/ ”metered” studies on who watches/ sees/ hears a media type (TV, radio) and a media vehicle (particular show, magazine title, etc.)
Audience measurement in print
Circulation and survey.
- The circulation (copies sold among subscribers and newstand buyers) is known from sales records/distributors
- “Pass-along” readership is estimated by surveys
Audience measurement in TV
People meters and diaries.
- Peoplemeters are automated set-top-boxes in panel member homes recording which channel is being watched 24/7
- As an alternative, self-report diaries can be kept
Audience measurement in radio
Diaries. Panel members are asked to keep a daily diary (by dayparts) which radio station they listened to
Audience measurement in out-of-home
Observations. Researchers observe in person near boards how many consumers/drivers pass by in an hour/daypart/day
Audience measurement of digital media
Ad server data. Companies that “serve up” digital ads record the number of times an ad appears on person’s computer while viewing a website.
