Introduction
Training course introducion / brief

This training course on Strategic Media Planning is designed for managerial-level professionals and focuses on effectively delivering your organization's messages to the right target audience within budget constraints.

Over the past two decades, the digital media revolution has transformed the media landscape, integrating the lines between marketing and public relations/communications.

This course examines the optimal mix of paid, earned, and owned media strategies.

 

Successful media planning involves setting clear objectives and strategies that align with your business goals. Key components of media planning include market analysis, media objective establishment, strategy development and execution, and thorough evaluation. A comprehensive media plan should be supported by solid research, providing a detailed rationale for all media activities. Essential elements of a media plan include objectives, strategy, rationale, execution details, and a summary.
