Case Study

Ms.Cherry as the advertising manager for chemical topics magazine, is charged with the responsibility for selling advertising space in the magazine. The magazine deals primarily with chemical processing technology and is distributed solely by subscription. Major advertisers in the magazine are the producers of chemical processing equipment since the magazine is primarily directed at engineers and other technical people concerned with the design of chemical processing units. Since the size and composition of the target audience for chemical topics are key concerns for prospective advertisers, Ms.Cherry is interested in collecting more detailed data on leadership. While she presently has total circulation figures, she feels that these understate the potential exposure of an advertisement in chemical topics.

In particular, she feels that for every subscriber to chemical topics, there are several others in the firm to whom chemical topics are routed for their perusal. She wishes to determine how large this 'secondary' audience is and also wishes to develop more detailed data on readers such as degree of technical training, level in the administrative hierarchy, and so on, since feels that these detail s would be quite helpful in influencing potential clients to commit their advertising dollars to chemical topics.
