Advertising Media Plan

Elements of your analysis should include:

· Communication Objectives

· Product cycle

· Reach goals

· Frequency goals

· Communication matrix

· Identification of all elements of advertising/media planning are currently in use.

· Ex: commercials, social media, etc. – all the ways/places you see this entity’s public face.

· A SWOT assessment – the SWOT analysis is an itemized list of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in bullet-point form. A SWOT template is required. A simple box table is not considered a creative SWOT layout. See info on templates below.
