Achieving Advertising Objectives
1. Three-exposure hypothesis
Intrusion value
 Takes a minimum of three exposures for an ad to be
effective
 Effective frequency – number of times that one must be
exposed to message to achieve its objective
 Effective reach - % of target market that must be exposed
to ad to achieve its objective
 Size, placement, length of ad are factors to consider
 Number of media used is important (variability)

Achieving Advertising Objectives
2. Recency theory
 One exposure may be enough
 Effective the closer to a purchase
 States that consumers use selective retention when they
consider ads.
 Advertising is a waste of money when intended market is not
reached
Achieving Advertising Objectives
o Media Multiplier Effect
o The combined impact of using two or more media is stronger
than using either medium alone
o Often the reason for using several different media
o This ensures a broader effective reach
