Airtime, explained

Making the spot is half the job. Getting it seen is the other half.

A great commercial only works if the right people see it. Here’s what buying TV airtime means — and why going through a media buyer makes a difference.

  1. 01

    Airtime is the slot, not the spot.

    Your commercial is the video. Airtime is the time you buy from a station or network to run it — a set number of airings, in specific programs or parts of the day, in specific markets.

  2. 02

    Rates are not one-size-fits-all.

    What a slot costs depends on the market, the station or network, the time of day, the programming around it, the time of year and how often you want to air. The same 30 seconds can be priced very differently from one schedule to the next.

  3. 03

    A media buyer does the heavy lifting.

    Media buying firms plan schedules and negotiate rates with stations and networks every day. Working through one gives you their relationships and buying power, instead of approaching each station on your own.

Local · Regional · National

Air where your customers are.

Whether you serve one neighborhood or the whole country, our media buying partnership covers the reach you need.

  • Local

    Your city, your customers.

    Air on stations in a single market — the right fit for a business that serves one town or metro area and wants to be seen by the people who can actually walk in the door.

  • Regional

    Several markets at once.

    Run your spot across a group of markets — a state, a region, or every city where you have a location — with one coordinated schedule instead of a dozen separate buys.

  • National

    Coast to coast.

    Put your commercial in front of a national audience on network and cable television when your product or service is sold everywhere.

  • Hollywood actor. A professional on-camera actor from our roster to represent you.
  • Camerawork. Shot on the same class of cinema cameras used on acclaimed streaming and cable series.
  • Stunning custom set. Choose from 20+ sets, customized with your logos and images.
