Catchy, yes, but does it work?: The impact of broadcast network promotion frequency and type on program success

Pages 197-207 | Accepted 01 Jan 1993, Published online: 18 May 2009
 

Abstract

This study analyzed the effectiveness of promotions in stimulating interest in new and returning network programming, using 1,028 program advertisements edited out of a stratified sample of major broadcast network programming. Overall, frequency of promotion per episode was negatively and weakly related to program ratings. Promotions appeared to work better for returning programs and to be more effective in the first month of new season than in the second.
