What is media buying?

In essence, media buying is a type of paid marketing that aims to find and acquire ad space on networks that target audiences tune in at the best possible time slot and price. The process involves both traditional and digital mediums, and when done effectively, it gives maximum exposure to the brand.

How much do media buying services cost?

Most agencies charge a commission for broadcast and digital media buys of around 15-25%, but this will vary on a lot of factors.

What services do media buying agencies provide?

Media buying companies provide services to help businesses strategically purchase relevant advertising space or slots on different media. These services typically include radio media buying, TV media buying, and digital media buying. They help brands ensure they reach their intended audience by securing critical ad space and managing ad budgets. Ultimately, they are focused on helping businesses succeed by providing comprehensive and tailored media buying solutions.

Is it worth hiring a local media buying agency, or can they be based somewhere else?

Investing in an experienced and local professional team specializing in media buying is well worth it for businesses focused on a regional demographic. Such teams have extensive knowledge of market dynamics and consumers and have connections with local media companies. Additionally, experienced teams understand the nuances of your location, allowing them to give you better advice on achieving your goals best and executing your project. These same professionals can bring these insights to strategy and analysis meetings so you can ensure you have the most up-to-date knowledge of your market. Finding a reliable media buying firm doesn’t always come down to geography, but location should be considered a priority for specific industries.
