Frequency (F) & Reach (R) Evaluation
Ÿ One exposure of an ad to a target group within a purchase
cycle has little or no effect!
Ÿ The central goal of productive media planning should be
to enhance F rather than R!
Ÿ An exposure F of two (2) within a purchase cycle is an
effective level!
Ÿ An ad wear out is not a function of too much F. It is more
of a creative or copy problem!
