Managerial Report Develop a model that can be used to determine the advertising budget allocation for the Flamingo Grill. HJ agreed to work with these guidelines and provide a recommendation as to how the $279,000 advertising budget should be allocated among television, radio, and newspaper advertising. The newspaper budget is to be at least $30,000.The radio advertising budget is restricted to a maximum of $99,000.The television budget should be at least $140,000.Use no more than 20 television advertisements.Use at least twice as many radio advertisements as television advertisements.To balance the advertising campaign and make use of all advertising media, Flamingo’s management team also adopted the following guidelines. Because of management’s concern with attracting new customers, management stated that the advertising campaign must reach at least 100,000 new customers.

Beyond 15 ads, the exposure rating declines to 20 and the number of new customers reached declines to 1200 per ad. For radio ads, the preceding data are reliable up to a maximum of 15 ads. For planning purposes, HJ recommended reducing the exposure rating to 55 and the estimate of the potential new customers reached to 1500 for any television ads beyond 10. After 10 ads, the benefit is expected to decline. For television, HJ stated that the exposure rating of 90 and the 4000 new customers reached per ad were reliable for the first 10 television ads.

As expected, the more expensive television advertisement has the highest exposure effectiveness rating along with the greatest potential for reaching new customers. It is a function of such things as image, message recall, visual and audio appeal, and so on. The exposure rating is viewed as a measure of the value of the ad to both existing customers and potential new customers.
