To maximize message recall, which reach goal is recommended?

• A. Achieving a single high reach is enough.
• B. Focus on Off Peak to save costs.
• C. Set a 3+ effective Reach goal so that your message is remembered.
• D. Use only Top 5 programs.

Answer: (C)

Memory recall is strengthened by repetition. When people see a message multiple times, it’s more likely to stick and be remembered. An effective reach plan focuses on how many people see the message and, crucially, how many times they see it. Setting a 3+ effective reach goal means the majority of the audience encounters the message at least three times, which increases the chance of recall far more than a single high-reach exposure. Choices like targeting off-peak solely to cut costs reduce opportunities for repetition, and restricting placements to the top five programs limits touchpoints and the total exposures needed for memory. So the 3+ effective reach approach best supports message recall.
