Vector offers several services for advertisers and/or their agencies. We’ve featured one of our services below – for more details on how we can help; please go to our services section.
Vector provides media planning and buying training on a custom basis. If you have an in-house media function and would like to build or reinforce best practices, we can design a series of media modules and toolkits to allow you to improve your media game. If you have a significant investment in paid or owned media, your company may benefit from enhanced media skills!
Our training features modules for planning and buying traditional off line media, on-line planning and buying, SEM planning and execution as well as leveraging social media channels. We also provide training on media administration, including basic financial management of campaign implementation.

In this three part series, we’ll review the characteristics and skills that can make you an effective media planner and buyer, or if you are an advertiser, a discerning buyer of media services! A quick note – my perspective is from a smaller agency where the lines between planning and buying are often blurred. Your results may vary if you are working at or with a large buying shop.
The media world and all its channels are constantly evolving. We provide definitions to help navigate.
Paid media is a channel that has been purchased (on-line, mobile assets, traditional broadcast, out-of-home etc.). Typical paid media would include paid search (vs. organic), broadcast or print advertising, etc. We would put product placement in this category.
Today’s advertising environment is complex, rapidly changing and sometimes confusing - to customers and marketers alike. At Vector Media we strive to reduce the guesswork and false economies in the media planning and buying process, making it strategic, creative, and cost effective!
