National TV advertising includes sponsorships, product placements, and commercials. Closed captioning sponsorships support the hearing impaired, game show placements advertise products or services that contestants win, and product placements raise brand awareness. Commercials are aimed at foreign audiences and must appeal to the target demographic.
Sponsorships, game presentations, and product placements and advertisements can all be types of national television advertising. Closed captioning sponsorships are methods of advertising in the credits of a show and support closed captioning for the hearing impaired. Game show placements are products or services that contestants win. Product placements are actual products seen in movies and television shows and sometimes used or endorsed by celebrities. Domestic TV commercials are your typical 10- to 60-second commercials, but are aimed at foreign audiences.
Closed captions are a method of visually describing what is happening on TV. This method replaces audio for people who can’t hear properly or simply prefer not to. National TV advertisers may sponsor closed captioning as a way to get their message across. Some organizations advertise the public service aspect of captioning sponsorship. If a company is looking for a way to look like a good citizen, sponsoring closed captioning services could be beneficial.
Game show placements are a well-used type of national television advertising, because many countries have popular game shows. The product is advertised by having the competitor use or win the item. Even companies that don’t have a physical product can advertise on game shows. For example, if the company owns a hotel, the game show contestant can win a seven-day vacation. Alternatively, if the company owns a landscaping service, the contestant could win a free makeover for her yard.
Product placement is a type of national television advertising used by companies to raise awareness of their brands. This type of advertising is typically designed so that it does not look like consumer advertising. For example, a carbonated drink may be consumed by an actor in a TV movie. In this case, it may not be immediately obvious to a consumer that the drink is an advertisement. Advertisers typically seek consumers to develop emotional connections and think favorably of their products due to product placement.
Commercials are a traditional type of national television advertising. The commercial is usually written to appeal to the target audience, with actors from the target country rather than the country where the company is based. For a well-viewed commercial, a business needs to purchase a slot at the right time, such as during a popular TV show when the audience demographic fits the business’s needs.
