Advertizing Planning

Post by H. Sedehi hsedehi freemail.it »

Posted by ""H. Sedehi"" <hsedehi@freemail.it>

I'm doing some research in my department (communication Sciences) at the Rome University on the possibility of using SD in defining and controlling, in general, the advertising process and in particular the media planning; so I was wondering if anyone is aware of any work or research or model developed by SD approach dealing with advertising process through media planning ?

My best wishes to everybody and thanks in advance,
Ciao,
H. Sedehi

Hello,

Surely your inquiry about the advertising process meant, ""in addition to Graham and Ariza, SDR 19(1) 'Dynamic, hard and strategic questions: using optimization to answer a marketing
resource allocation question' ""? ;-)

That article describes a system dynamics model that in essence is a superset of the traditional media planning model that describes the impact of media spending (a subset of marketing spending on, e.g. salesforce and channel support as well) on awareness and consideration (one of several drivers along the way to impact on sales). I expect that article provides sufficient framework to work out the solution to your situation. Let's talk more if it doesn't.

Holiday greetings and cheers,

Alan
