The Project (2015-Sept 2020)

To some programs total viewers might be important. But this is clearly NOT important to The Project.

When no advertisers buy on Total Viewers and the general public doesn’t really give a sh*t about how many viewers a program is getting, how is it irrelevant? It’s only relevant to the Newspapers who like ignore their own declining medium, and to everyone on MediaSpy…

Bit like how FOX in the States now ignores the overnight figures?

  1. Advertisers still buy on total viewers when it comes to things like sport
  2. If the general public really doesn’t "…give a sht about how many viewers a program is getting"* like you’re suggesting, the only places where they would be reported on are media websites such as this one. As we all know, that clearly isn’t the case…

That’s different though - due to things like DVR viewing and catchup services, overnight figures isn’t a true reflection of how many people actually watched a program. Hence, it’s why more emphasis is being placed on consolidated figures

No, they dont. Total viewers only provides a lay person’s perspective on the viewership of a show. It’s a meaningless number to advertisers and bears no fruit when targeting their audience.

Unless you’re a Media Buyer or work in advertising sales, how do you know Sport is bought on Total People?

Chemist Warehouse and NAB are both clients of mine who sponsor the AFL and neither of them buy the sponsorship on Total Audience. The TARPs bought across the sponsorship are all measured on 2-3 different demographics that align with different brands/products rather than a single one. I’ve been in Media for 9 years working in Media Agencies and Media Owner side now and nobody I know of buys any aspect of TV on Total People…

I hate TARPs

Ditto, hence why I now work in Out of Home! Still need to know a client’s media mix though and why they’re buying certain programming/Media in order to put forward a comprehensive brief response though and Total Audience is never a TV demo they buy on. Yes, they look at Total Contacts/Reach however it’s within a specific demographic/s.
