Media Planner Jobs in Ohio

A Media Planner in the advertising industry is responsible for identifying which media platforms would best advertise a client's brand or product. They play a crucial role in increasing a brand's visibility among its target audience by strategically placing ads in the most impactful platforms, which could range from digital, print, television, radio, and outdoor advertising. Their duties include researching targeted markets, monitoring buying strategies, tracking advertising spending, and analyzing consumer data to optimize advertising campaigns. They also collaborate closely with clients, marketing teams, and other stakeholders to ensure that advertising efforts align with the client's business objectives and budget.
