6. Cable TV Power Advertising on cable television is a unique and effective way to inform, motivate and persuade audiences about your business, product or service. The AD|MAX cable TV component is a cooperative-based format featuring individual merchants together with the local Internet portal provider with merchant-specific photo, art, and voice-over. What makes cable different? Unlike traditional "over-the-air" television, cable TV is a very selective medium. Instead of delivering a single channel to an entire television market, cable TV delivers lots of demographically targeted television channels to specific geographic areas. This offers two efficiency advantages for advertisers: - The ability to target audiences by more precise areas of geography, and -The ability to target audiences by demographic and lifestyle interests. Cable TV advertising offers several key benefits: - Precise targeting - Minimal waste - Audio and visual - Economy and quality
