How do you get all-round sportsmen all round the TV?

Watching television could never be described as a particularly healthy activity.

So it’s crucial that sports-related commercials are on at the right time to catch the target market.

Saturday afternoons, for instance, are probably not the best time.

Although there’s a lot of sport on TV, the only people watching it then are those who don’t play it.

‘Midweek Sports Special’, however, is on at a time when even the keenest sports players are happy to relax.

And obviously a sports programme is the best environment in which to sell sports-related goods, or other products and services targetted at sports-mad young men. Because watching is the next best thing to playing.

If you want to be sure that your commercials are getting a healthy reception, ring Jonathan Shier, Director of Sales & Marketing, on 01-387 9494.
