The Audience Marketplace
Section Info:
Along with producing media, publishers produce audiences. It is the combination of media and audience that are the sources of revenue in their business models. As advertisers increasingly emphasize audience buying, publishers have an opportunity to create growth and optimize revenues from their business models. To do so, they need to begin audience selling. This course is designed for freshmen students interested in exploring how media companies sell their audiences to advertisers or sponsors. The goal will be to explore the relationship between advertisers, advertising agencies, media sales rep firms and media platforms (e.g. TV, blogs, Facebook, mobile apps, radio, magazines, OOH, etc.) and how advertising and media content support one another. Students who are interested in advertising, marketing, media, sales, etc. would enjoy this class. First Year Discovery Program Course. Registration restricted to freshmen.
