Super Prices for Super Bowl Ads T CBS Is Looking to Charge a Record $2.6 Million for a 30-Second Spot During This 1 Year's Super Bowl XLI CBS looking for $2.6 million for a 30-second Super Bowl ad - Jan. 3, 2007 Page 1 of 4 The Internet home of: SYMBOL LOOK-UP HOME NEWS MARKETS TECHNOLOGY JOBS & ECONOMY PERSONAL FINANCE LIFESTYL Super prices for Super Bowl ads T CBS is looking to charge a record $2.6 million for a 30-second spot during this 1 year's Super Bowl XLI. W By Paul R. La Monica, CNNMoney.com editor at large F January 3 2007: 6:25 PM EST C NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The National Football League playoffs begin this weekend, and Super Bowl L XLI is only about a month away. But while sports junkies argue about which teams will wind up playing in the big game in Miami on February 4, many business people and casual fans are more concerned about the advertising frenzy associated with the Super Bowl - that is, which companies will have commercials airing during the game and how much are they paying to do so. According to several media buyers, CBS (Charts), which will air Super Bowl XLI, is said to be asking for slightly higher than the record $2.5 million that Walt Disney (Charts)-owned ABC charged last year for a 30-second spot during Super Bowl XL. "I'm hearing that ads are being sold for more than last year," said Bill Carroll, vice president and director of programming with Katz Television Group, a media buying and consulting firm based in New York. "It's not going to be a dramatic increase but informally, people from advertising agencies as well as CBS have said it will probably be a new record." John Bogusz, executive vice president for sports sales and This ad for FedEx, which showed a marketing for CBS, confirmed that some advertisers are paying more caveman getting fired after his pterodactyl messenger failed to deliver a than $2.6 million for a 30-second commercial. He added that most of package, was one of last year's most the commercial spots for the first half of the game are sold out but popular Super Bowl commercials. that CBS is still looking to sell inventory, mainly during the fourth quarter. But other ad experts were quick to point out that, even though CBS may be able to charge as much as $2.6 million for some spots, the average rate for a 30-second commercial is likely to be lower than that. Creature comfort for last year's Super Bowl ads "I'm hearing a rate of $2.6 million but how many advertisers actually will be paying that is tough to gauge. Most people get some sort of http://money.cnn.com/2007/01/03/news/funny/superbowl_ads/ 1/8/2007 CBS looking for $2.6 million for a 30-second Super Bowl ad - Jan. 3, 2007 Page 2 of 4 discount," said Jordan Breslow, director of broadcast research with Video More video MediaCom, a media buying firm that is part of ad agency WPP Group. To that end, one media buying source, who asked not to be named, said that CBS was more likely to average between $2.2 million and $2.3 million for a 30-second spot and could wind up with an average price as low as $1.8 million to $2 million. Bogusz would not comment on how much the average price for a Super Bowl commercial would wind up being since the network is still in negotiations with advertisers. After 13 tries, Super Bowl censors "We're doing well but can't rest until all the advertising units are finally approved and aired this sold," he said. GoDaddy.com ad titled "Send in" in 2006. Still, advertisers appear willing to pay premium prices for ads since Play video the Super Bowl remains the one broadcast event that is guaranteed to not only generate a huge number of viewers but an audience that actually tends to be interested in the commercials since advertisers pull out all the stops creatively in order to attract buzz. Last year's game was watched by 90.7 million people, according to Nielsen Media Research, the most since 1996. Doritos: You create our Super Bowl commercial "The Super Bowl is one of the few, if only, times of the year that viewers anticipate, look forward to and pay complete attention to commercials," said John Rash, senior vice president and director of media negotiations with Campbell Mithun, a media buying firm based in Minneapolis. "It's a one day reprieve from the challenges faced by broadcasters and advertisers." TV networks face the daunting task of trying to keep people engaged in the age of online user-generated video sites like Google's (Charts) YouTube. And marketers have to worry about how effective TV ads can be when many people can simply fast-forward past commercials with digital video recorders. But Breslow said this isn't a big issue for Super Bowl advertisers or advertisers buying commercials during most sporting events. In fact, the funny thing about the Super Bowl is that it's the rare instance when TiVo (Charts) and other types of DVRs can actually be an advertiser's friend. "Over and over, we find that sports tend to be TiVo-ed infrequently due to the live nature of the games. But it's possible that people may record the Super Bowl so they can rewatch the commercials," he said. R L u CBS's Bogusz said several high-profile companies that ran more than one commercial during last year's big w game, including Budweiser brewer Anheuser-Busch (Charts), online job recruitment site CareerBuilder.com, General Motors (Charts) and PepsiCo (Charts), have bought more than one spot for this year's game. B F Anheuser-Busch bought 10 spots, the same as it did for last year's game, Bogusz said. C w Who's your GoDaddy? C T Pepsi's Frito-Lay unit is taking an interesting gamble this year with its Doritos brand. The company w announced last September that it was running a contest in conjunction with Yahoo's (Charts) video site where users can create their own Doritos commercial for the Super Bowl. Frito-Lay will choose five finalists this M S month, and people can vote for their favorite. The fan vote will help determine which ad Frito-Lay chooses. C c GM's Chevrolet is also going to run a user-generated ad, but with a twist. The company is accepting ideas for http://money.cnn.com/2007/01/03/news/funny/superbowl_ads/ 1/8/2007 CBS looking for $2.6 million for a 30-second Super Bowl ad - Jan. 3, 2007 Page 3 of 4 commercials from average consumers, but an ad agency will actually produce the winning ad. SP On Wednesday, Diamond Foods (Charts), the company that makes Emerald Nuts, said there will be an Emerald Nuts ad for the third straight Super Bowl. The Emerald Nut ads have tended to be among the stranger commercials (last year's ad featured a druid and people wielding machetes), and this year's promises to be no different. Actor and singer Robert Goulet of "Camelot" fame will star in the commercial. Andrew Burke, vice president of marketing for Diamond Foods, said that the company's ad will air during the third quarter of this year's game and that it paid about $2 million for the spot, the same it paid last year for a commercial that ran in the fourth quarter. Burke said Diamond decided to advertise again because the company felt that having an ad in the Super Bowl helped raise awareness for and lift sales of Emerald Nuts. In particular, he said that the ads enabled Emerald to get more favorable in-store displays with retailers. And online domain registrar firm GoDaddy.com, known for its controversial, risqué Super Bowl ads, is also said to be planning on buying an ad for Super Bowl XLI. One ad agency executive said he thinks that the amount of buzz created from a Super Bowl commercial usually makes it worth it for companies to advertise during the game. But he added that companies need to be cautious since flops can be costly. "You have to create spots especially for the game and that can double the price. You have to pay $2.5 million or so to get in the game and to produce a spot could easily cost you another million or two," said Fran Kelly, president and chief executive officer of Arnold Worldwide, a leading advertising agency. "It is a challenge for marketers. If you wind up with one of the poorly rated commercials you wonder if it's worth the money."

  • Perception of Super Bowl Xlvi TV Advertisements in the USA: a Case of College Students
    International Journal of Business and Social Science Vol. 4 No. 2; February 2013 Perception of Super Bowl Xlvi TV Advertisements in the USA: A Case of College Students Okan Akcay, DBA Qian (Susan) Sun, PhD Liangyu Chen, MBA Professor of Marketing Department of Business Administration College of Business, DF # 217 Kutztown University of Pennsylvania Kutztown, Pennsylvania, 19530, USA Abstract The purpose of this research paper is toanalyze male and female perceptions of Super Bowl XVLI advertising among college students in the USA. The Super Bowl promises to deliver on three main benefits for the audience, an exciting football game, very memorable ads from different industries and a half-time show (Bickle, 2012; Liguori, 2012). Popular commercials can play a critical role in helping to shape customer perception and influence buying decisions. This study has four sections: introduction and importance of topic, review of literature, methodology and hypotheses, and presentation of results and conclusions. Key Words: Marketing, Sports Marketing, Super Bowl Advertising and Consumer Behavior. 1. Introduction The Super Bowl and the World Series are two high profile sporting events that are extremely attractive to advertisers. Similar amounts of advertising dollars are spent on both events (McKenna, et al., 2012) but there are significant differences between the two. The super Bowl is a one game, one day telecast and the World Series is four to seven games spread over a one to two week period (Kelley, et al., 2004; Parry, 2005; Mohr, 2007; Kim, et al., 2011; Steinberg, 2008). People won’t be watching the World Series just to see the commercials-whichhappens fairly often during the Super Bowl.

Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events.

Applying data mining techniques to social media can yield interesting perspectives to understanding individual and human behavior, detecting hot issues and topics, or discovering a group and community. This study aims to address the question of how people use Twitter and to assess the power of Twitter in terms of creating consumer interest in commercials based on an analysis of Twitter messages about various Super Bowl ads. Instead of relying on the audience’s responses, this study adopts a hybrid approach, combining a data-mining approach to collect, filter and analyze a massive amount of tweets with manual content analysis.

Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jmm.v4n1a2 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jmm.v4n1a2 Hash tag Slogans, Super Bowl Commercials, and Millennial Dr. Douglas M. Carroll1 Abstract This study measures brand awareness of Super Bowl commercials using hash tag slogans with survey samples comprised of Millennial. The day after the Super Bowls of 2015 and 2016, participants were given a recognition test and asked to match the slogan with the correct brand from a list of three. Test items included traditional slogans and hash tag slogans. Participants also responded to a survey questionnaire regarding personal electronic device ownership and social media use. Results indicated greater brand awareness of traditional slogans as compared to hash tag slogans. The study also noted high degrees of electronic device ownership and social media use. Implications for researchers and marketers were discussed. Keywords: Super Bowl commercials, hash tags, online advertising, Millennial Introduction The rise of online advertising has generated considerable pressure on all other sectors in the advertising industry. Television has been the traditional gold standard for decades but today broadcast and cable networks are engaged in an ongoing competition with increasingly popular digital platforms. One strategy networks have employed is convergence or merging television and online techniques and technology. This convergence becomes evident when television producers create pop-up ads, computer generated graphics, references to social media, and hash tag slogans.

  • Local Advertising Was Also on Display During Super Bowl XLIX
    Local Advertising Was Also On Display During Super Bowl XLIX Most of the discussion and attention about the TV commercials in Super Bowl XLIX has focused on the national ads. However, a second tranche of brands also participated in the game by purchasing time in local markets from NBC affiliate stations. Each station received an allotment of approximately 7 minutes of commercial time, creating an additional opportunity for advertisers to reach Super Bowl viewers. Kantar Media has examined all of the local ads airing in the Top 100 markets during the Super Bowl game – over 1,200 spots - to gain insight into the types of sponsors accessing the event and to identify some of the noteworthy strategies. Leading Ad Categories Automotive advertising was prevalent across the Top 100 markets, with factory-sponsored messages more common in large markets and dealer commercials more numerous outside the Top 50 markets. The two most active nameplates locally were Ford and Honda, neither of which purchased network air time in any of NBC’s Super Bowl programming. Pursuing local ad buys can be a highly cost-effective strategy for these brands: Many consumers may not even realize local stations are able to sell ads separately, providing the halo effect of being a “Super Bowl advertiser” in select markets for a fraction of the cost of a national ad. Restaurants were also a mainstay category, with spots appearing in 66 of the Top 100 markets from 39 different brands. Arbys had a presence in 15 markets and Jack InThe Box was in 17. Outside the Top 50 markets, where the price of ad time diminishes, a more eclectic and localized group of advertisers stepped forward.
