urgent enquiry

Hi guys,
I am new here and a media student. I have an assignment about the ad cost on a TV. Please let me know where I can find the info or

How much does an average 30-second ad on a TV channel cost? (better if you can give the time slot, and channels both in UK and US)
And give me a range when the ad is aired in prime time, film programmes, sports...

Thank you very much for your help.
You can reply me here or send to my email address:

Re: urgent enquiry



I have absolutely no idea how much ads are on TV (try google) because several factors have to be taken into consideration such as how many weeks to promote product, frequency of the advert, peak time, i.e it will cost more between a popular show, i.e Coronation Street.

(PS I have moved this thread from the ntl sections of the forum as its not related) I have also removed your e-mail address if you have allowed people to e-mail you via your account options, they can e-mail you via clicking an option on your profile or by selecting the option by clicking on your name in your post and a drop down menu appears.

Re: urgent enquiry

Since as Mick has already said, the cost of advertising will depend on things like..
what station
what time
what programmes is it sitting between
what day
how long an advert is
what type of product it is
the only advice I can give is to contact a number of stations and ask them for a rough breakdown of their pricing as they quite often work out the pricings on a case by case situation.
I just checked Channel 4 and they stated that their is no rate card for advertising as there are too many things that the price is dependant on.

Re: urgent enquiry

At a rough estimate, anything from £15,000 to millions.

The £15,000 figure comes from when someone contacted me offering the chance to put an ad on (IIRC) Men and Motors, but that was a little out of my advertising budget range!

You would have to change your website to "Slightly less affordable ..... goods"
