Even in this Internet age, it is seen that television advertisement is still playing a great role in gaining brand exposure for new products or services. NYC TV commercial production companies still have huge faith in a television advertisement and prefer to advertise only on television rather than choosing any other medium of advertisement. But before you choose television as an advertising medium you must know all the advantages and disadvantages of such media. This is because the selection of advertising media is the most vital decision on which the entire sales of your company depends.

Television is one of the greatest media that has the capacity to reach to a large number of audiences. Today every household has a television and almost all people in the world watch television program every day. So advertising on television means you get a huge opportunity to grab the attention of the huge number of audience.

People generally watch television advertisement more attentively as compared to other advertising media. This is because TV advertisement is generally shown in the middle of any TV program during the commercial breaks. When people watch their favorite program on television they use to focus on the program and the same focus continues when the TV program takes a commercial break for a few minutes.

A television advertisement is an excellent media where you get both visuals and sound to attract your customer. In radio advertising, you only get sound whereas in case of print media you will not get any of these advantages. So, television media can be a great way to attract potential customers.

The following are some disadvantages of a television advertisement that every video production NYC should be aware of:

TV advertisement is generally costly and cannot afford by all companies. TV advertisement may not be very suitable for a small enterprise. It requires some time for the TV advertisement to produce a result and by that time it may create a hole in the company’s budget.

In a television advertisement, it is very difficult to make any correction. There is no scope in correcting the errors immediately as in the print media. In a television advertisement, you cannot correct the errors unless you pay the cost of reshooting or re-editing the advertisement.

Unlike print media, frequency plays a great role in making the television advertisement successful. If you cannot afford to broadcast your television advertisement at frequent interval then you cannot achieve the expected result. The more your target audience watches your television advertisement the more they will remember your product and will develop trust.

Hence, it is very important for the advertising company to understand both the Pros and Cons of television advertisement before they take the decision of which media they should go for advertising their product and service.
