Overview
Many clients have referred to our oldest
database, SQAD Spot TV, simply as SQAD. We continue
to build the value of Spot TV, including adding greater
reliability on the low and high indicators along with
more dayparts and demos. SQAD Spot TV provides CPP (cost
per point) and CPM (cost per thousand) estimates for
all 210 Nielsen DMAs. SQAD's proprietary contributor-based
methodology assures users of reliable market-by-market
data, using actual buys - real market costs.
NEW ORLEANS UPDATE: Effective with the February 2008 issue, New Orleans SQAD Spot TV costs are available.
NOTE: USING SQAD
IN THE NEW LOCAL PEOPLE METER MARKETS: As
Nielsen converts some of the larger markets from diaries
to local people meter (LPM) measurement, buys will
be coming into SQAD using LPM estimates and incorporated
into our database. Data prior to July 2004 is
based primarily on diary information; after July 2004, contributors use
LPM or a combination of LPM/diaries from an historical
perspective. As contributors don't indicate
which source or combination (LPM VS. diary) they are
using, we don’t know the proportions used.
In markets where diary and LPMs are used simultaneously,
LPM data is favored. Over the coming months,
our database will continue to be based on more LPM information.
We suggest monitoring activity in individual markets
in our MarketTrend report vs. July 2004. (You can find
the MarketTrend report in every SQAD Monthly, pages
4-7. For information on subscribing, sign
up or call us at 914.524.7600). We also recommend
using a higher CPP than is your custom when budgeting
(i.e., Average if your normal is Low, or midway between
Average-Low). If you need more help, please email us.
