You Tube

After speaking with Adrian, I realized that my advertiser's training has become my hindrance. I've been looking at this as a one-off campaign once again rather than a practical lifetime investment.
Now that I have to look more into the world of free advertising and social networking, building an online presence. I'm am going to gather a case studies from different social networking applications to learn a thing or two.

Here's what's on the list



YouTube
YouTube : JumbaFund phenomenon
http://www.youtube.com/user/JumbaFund
Every month JumbaFund donates all the revenue earned from Youtube to a charity of your choice. Just by watching the videos on JumbaFund, you are raising money for the charity of the month.

The charity of the month is nominated and voted by you the viewer. At the end of each month I allow viewers to nominate and vote for their favorite charity. The one with the most votes will receive all the profits that JumbaFund earned for the month.
It is quite a brilliant idea. Viewers watch his video and he earns money. I wondered how does this work and found out that You Tube has a partner program

How to write a Media Plan

Taken from Wikipedia Components of a media plan Define the marketing problem. Where is the business coming from and where is the potential for increased business? Does the ad need to reach everybody or only a select group of consumers? How often is the product used? How much product loyalty exists? Translate the marketing requirements into media objectives. Must the ad reach people in a wide area? Then mass media, like newspaper and radio, might work. If the target market is a select group in a defined geographic area, then direct mail could be best. Define a media solution by formulating media strategies. For example, the rule of thumb is that a print ad must run three times before it gets noticed. Radio advertising is most effective when run at certain times of the day or around certain programs, depending on what market is being reached. Advertising media includes Television ( TVC, television commercial) Radio Newspapers Magazines (consumer and trade) Outdoor bil...
