Question

How much does it cost to have a add on tv radio or in a news paper?

Answer 1

Non-grammatically speaking (said the kettle to the pot): It depends on where you are, how much money you will commit to spend and which stations/newspapers you choose.

For example, if you make an annual commitment to a local alternative newspaper, it would be pretty cheap compared to the same money in your big local daily newspaper. If you bought a 24 hour package on cable that would be less than buying a :30 in the CBS Evening News. Likewise, a big powerhouse radio station will be much more money than a small AM even though in the same city.

You probably won't get these rates on the individual web sites because everything is negotiable and subject to supply and demand. But check your favorite search engine for "average unit rate" for radio and TV, and "average cost per column inch" for newspapers and magazines.

Not to be rude cuz I'm horrible with grammer and english but it's;    How much does it cost to have an ad on t.v, radio or in the paper....

Anyhoot, newspaper I know,  depends on the number of days you have it in there. (Fairly cheap) usually under $30.00

Television commercials also depend on their frequency of showing them. You also have the costs of production. (It's more expensive )

As fair as having your ad on radio, I'm not sure, but I  imagine it's the cost between the newspaper and a commercial....  

Call places in your area for the info. the can help you more then anyone on here.

Answer 3

The rate can be anywhere from free to thousands of dollars per second.

Your best bet is to decide what kind of group you're looking for. All white males? over 50? YBM's? Seniors? Pre-teens? Farmers? Barhopping young adults?

Then target your audience with ads that they will see or hear. Seniors tend to listen to talk radio and read papers. Young adults will grab the local bar news / entertainment paper. The church crowd is more likely to read the local coupon-cutter. Farmers are up in the morning listening to weather reports and stock prices. The unemployed and depressed are watching late-night TV and calling into Coast2Coast ...

Do a little research, make a plan, collect feedback and sales response, modify your plan, continue to monitor what works and what flops. Keep in mind that some products and services don't sell on the first ad but by their presence ... nobody sees an ad for bathtub re-surfacing and runs down to your store. They get to thinking, though....
