MEMORANDUM TO: Mr. D. A. Merson RE: Paint Advertising Budget for 1961 'VvKITTEE JAN 18 1361 I am pleased to submit the Paint Budget for 1961, both, for the Eastern Group and for the Pacific Coast. The protested media schedule represents an increase over 1960 expenditures. It is felt that this increase is fully warranted for the following reasons: 1. There has been a general rate increase in media costs of about 12 1/2% over 19601 2. There has been increased advertising activity by our competition. ( See report below) 3. More comprehensive consumer advertising; is required to support increased sales of "Dutch Boy" Paint Products. Glidden - (1) Spectacular insertions probably put second half magazine slightly up on *60. ' (2) Spot TV may be ahead. (3) Newspaper may be about same. Pittsburgh - (1) Doubled magazine in first half of year over total for '59. (2) Kept pace on TV, up slightly. (3) Doubled newspaper. (4) Up about 80% over last year. DuPont - (1) No network TV shows, but audit estimate is that paint is getting slightly more time than last year. (2) Strategy aimed at Spot TV; spending at bigger rate and Philadelphia. (3) Newspaper, $350,000 for six months vs. $200, 000 all last year. (4) Total spending well ahead of rate for '59. Benjamin Moore - (1) About 10% ahead in magazine. Sherwin-Williams - (1) About same on magazines, but new agency is making stronger second-half print push than last year. (2) Strong newspaper coverage on latex paint. (3) Spent $1, 060, 000 in six months vs. $1, 327, 000 all last year. Submitted January 17, 1961 by T. Howard Sarine Advertising Manager NL 000040060 196 1 PAINT BUDGET EASTERN GROUP .t ?
