Rand value for TV coverage

[Old school]

Does anyone know what the estimate Rand value would be if a pro rider is shown on Supercycling or in a live broadcast race?

[fandacious]

i know some of the races have to pay big bucks for TV coverage. but i'm not sure how to apportion that value to a rider

[Ghostface]

That would depend on the Riders contract with his sponsor/s.

If the rider is on Supercycling:

1. Get  advertising rates from Oracle Airtime Sales.

2. Time rider's exposure on the screen.

3. Match the TV time slots of rider's exposure to the advertising rates for those time slots. Note: advertising rates differ from channel to channel and across the various time slots (this will all be on the rates they give you).

4. Add it all up and get a Rand value in line with those relevant ad rates.

5 Multiply that Rand value by three because editorial content is more valuable than advertising content because it's perceived not to be 'forced' on the viewer. We use three-times the value in print media, it may be more in TV, but definitely not less.

6. If that makes sense to you, I'll pat myself on the back... If not, I won't and will try and explain it another way.

In the South African definition of the term, yes. But mostly in media and PR.

Yep. Too true.

One-time value won't be worth much to the sponsor. You don't say if the commentator is mentioning the sponsor/team name and in what context.

 

A podium mention with full visibility of the sponsor logo is worth more than a mere mention during the race.

 

Also, if the rider/team has a nice marketing campaign behind the mention, it is worth even more. For instance, if the rider featured in a recent women's/men's/sports magazine a few times, has some PR behind him/her, then the mention has so much more weight.

 

For an unknown to get a mention with the sponsor's logo barely visibile and no mention of the sponsor, I won't even value that at R1 000 rand.

Sean is pretty much spot on.

If you do want the rand value, you could liaise with their sponsor brand, or speak to Newsclip, if they are a client,

I for one use newsclip.

Sean's matrix is good, but you will never be spot on, as is the same with trying to measure column inches

Years ago I spoke to Anriette Schoeman's coach Alex Cooper about it. He uses a method to calculate it. Try and contact him
