Comprehensive Media Plan – Part 2
Introduction:
Media plans come in many different designs varying by format, topics covered, order of topics, level of detail, and length. Each type of design serves a unique purpose for the plan to meet companies advertising goals. In this class you will follow one design. A basic media plan outline helps you to answer some common questions that arise during the writing process. An outline provides a blueprint to follow when creating your own media plan. It saves you time when getting started and provides you with a foundation to build upon as you customize the plan for your adverting needs.
The outline of a media plan serves as a template for creating a tailored media plan suited for your business. Below are the fourteen information sections included in a media plan. Each section should be listed in sequential order, as they should appear in your final media plan.
