Social Networking:
New paradigm in media planning
Marketer (brand) to consumer, then consumer to consumer
Marketers can use social media at a fraction of the cost of traditional media
Social media used to create “buzz” or “viral” effect

Brand building still needs traditional ads … for now
MAIN PURPOSE OF THE MEDIA PLAN
To deliver the right message to the appropriate target audience as many times as necessary to achieve the goals of the advertising campaign
