The Right Producer – The Right Media Buyer

by Collette Liantonio, President, Concepts TV Productions

With a maximum of one minute plus 40 something seconds of sell time, literally every second counts. Select an experienced short form, producer who knows how to make the most of those precious selling moments. The experts rely on a proven foimula with a problem/solution approach. Different products require different formulas. Gadgets, Books, Magazines or Beauty Aids each have different formulas. But all formulas create the urgent need to "Act Now." Media rates are deeply discounted and traditionally bought on the basis of proven past performance. Choose a media buyer who has managed successful short form campaigns.
