Indias First Ad Readership Survey Highlights
  • Colour works better - almost twice as well in
    the case of magazines and 80 more in the case of
    dailies,
  • THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS THE SOLUS POSITION OF THE
    TIMES OF INDIA WHICH ON ITS OWN STRENGTH IS FIVE
    AND A HALF TIMES MORE NOTICED THAN ANY OTHER
    AVERAGE AD. The sheer extent of the impact makes
    it a cost effective position.
  • Optimal size for an ad. is 600 scm. and every
    subsequent increase in size raises noticeability,
    though at a diminishing rate.
  • PAGES WITH STRONG CONTENT LIKE SPECIAL FEATURES
    AND SUPPLEMENTS ALSO HAVE INCREASED
    NOTICEABILITY.
  • Ad noticeability in Indian dailies is 11.8,
    far higher than the international norm of 6.9
    for broadsheets. The noticeability is
    particularly high for full page black and white
    ads 51 back page 960 scm. colour ads 59
    and the first double spread in a magazine 46.
  • Right hand pages work better.
  • Ad noticeability in print is higher than the
    television. In fact, brand recall for print ads
    is as high as 95.

    the pricing

I like reading The Times of India because Our
entire family reads The Times of India. It is
trendy, youthful, vibrant, reliable and quick to
feel the pulse of the people. Sanjeev Gupta
President, India Division, Coca-Cola Co. The
audience has always been at home with the
editorial environment of The Times (both the
paper and its supplements.) TOI gives you a feel
of every occasion be it Diwali, Christmas,
Holi, that no newspaper can provide. Its like
your newspaper is celebrating your festival, not
just reporting on it Anindiya Ray Media
Director, The Mediaedge I have been a TOI
reader all my life and frankly speaking, I cannot
do without it. Besides having good editorial
content, TOI has been a strong marketing driven
organisation with tremendous marketing successes
to its credit. It has also shown that it is
possible to reach people across all age groups,
particularly the younger generation, by
understanding their needs and aspirations. Santos
