OMB No. 1220-0008

The Bureau of Labor Statistics, its employees, agents, and partner statistical agencies, will use the information you provide for statistical purposes only and will
hold the information in confidence to the full extent permitted by law. In accordance with the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act
(44 U.S.C. 3572) and other applicable Federal laws, your responses will not be disclosed in identifiable form without your informed consent. Per the Federal
Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2015, Federal information systems are protected from malicious activities through cybersecurity screening of transmitted
data.
Public Burden Statement: We estimate it will take an average of 2 hours for this collection of information, including time for reviewing instructions, searching
existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and reviewing the collection of information. If you have any comments regarding this
estimate or any other aspect of this information collection, including suggestions for reducing this burden, you may send them to the Bureau of Labor Statistics
by email to [email protected]. The OMB control number for PPI's voluntary survey is 1220-0008. Without a currently valid number, BLS would not
be able to conduct this survey.

I. Checklist Materials
Checklist Code: 541810
Checklist Title: Advertising Agencies

media. These establishments are organized to provide a full range of services (i.e.,
through in-house capabilities or subcontracting), including advice, creative services,
account management, production of advertising material, media planning, and buying (i.e.,
placing advertising).

B. Inclusions
Establishments which provide ad creative services, but do not place advertising in
different forms of media, are still considered primary to NAICS 541810 as long as the
plurality of revenue is derived from ad creative services.
Establishments that derive the plurality of their revenue from ad placement, but also
provide ad creative services, are classified in NAICS 541810.

C. Exclusions
NAICS 541830 - Media Buying Agencies: Purchasing advertising space from media outlets and
reselling it directly to advertising agencies or individual companies
NAICS 541430 - Graphic Design Services: Conceptualizing and producing artwork or graphic
designs without providing other advertising agency services
NAICS 541860 - Direct Mail Advertising: Creating direct mail advertising campaigns

remaining are aired on the station’s second best dayparts.
Affiliate listings – Listings presented in the directory of a Web search portal that are
sold by an affiliated third party, and not directly by the portal.

Checklist Code: 541810
Checklist Title: Advertising Agencies
Banner advertisement - A graphical Web advertising unit, typically measuring 468 pixels
wide and 60 pixels tall.
Best Times Available (BTA) – the station is given discretion to broadcast the commercials
at the “best times available”.
CPM (Cost-Per-Thousand) - The advertising cost to reach 1000 households or viewers. For
example, if the cost of the commercial time is $50,000 and the audience delivery is
4,606,000, then the CPM equals $10.86. The formula:
CPM = (MEDIA COST/ADUINCE DELIVERY)x 1000
CPP (Cost-Per-Point) - The advertising cost to reach one rating point of the target
audience. For example, if the cost of the commercial time is $50,000 and the number of
rating points delivered is 10, then the CPP equals $5,000.00. The formula:
CPP = (MEDIA COST/RATINGS DELIVERY)
Daypart - A specific segment of a broadcast schedule, e.g., morning, daytime, early
fringe, primetime, late night.
Directory Listings – Listings provided by a Web search portal which have been reviewed by
human editors, and for which a short written description is prepared and presented on the
site.
DMA (Designated Market Area) – Represents an exclusive geographic area of counties in
which the home market stations are estimated to have the largest quarter hour share (as
defined by Nielsen).
Floating advertisement – An advertisement that appears when a user goes to a Web page, and
then "floats" or "flies" over the page for anywhere from 5 to 30 seconds.
Guaranteed placement – Placement of an advertisement at a specified location in the
newspaper. This positioning is requested by the advertiser and agreed to by the newspaper.
Guaranteed placement usually costs more than run-of-paper placements.
Impressions – The number of times that an Internet advertisement appears on the screen of
an Internet user.
Index listings – Listings provided by search engines for which no human editorial review
has been provided. These listings are not presented with a written description.

Interstitial advertisement – An advertisement that loads between two content pages. This

Checklist Title: Advertising Agencies
typically takes the form of a full-page advertisement that appears when a user clicks on a
specific content link, forcing exposure to the advertisement before the user can view the
content that has been requested.
Pop-up advertisement - An advertisement that "pops up" in its own window when a user goes
to a Web page, obscuring the content that the user was attempting to view.
Pop-under advertisement – An advertisement that appears in its own window when a user goes
to a Web page. As opposed to a pop-up advertisement, this advertisement window appears
under the content the user is attempting to view and does not obscure it.
Pre-emption - A station will bump one advertiser's commercial if another is willing to pay
more for that position.
Purchase lead time – The amount of time between the purchase date of media space and the
time at which the advertising is actually run.
Run of Station (ROS) – The station is given discretion to broadcast the commercials at the
“best times available”.
Run of Paper (ROP) - Positioning of an ad at the discretion of the newspaper layout editor
rather than in a location requested by the advertiser.
Superstitial advertisement – An interstitial advertisement that uses animation technology
to create a video-like commercial.
Surround session advertisement – An advertising sequence in which a Web page visitor
receives ads from one advertiser throughout an entire site visit.
Text advertisement – A Web advertisement that uses text-based hyperlinks.
Total Audience Plan (TAP) – Commercials are aired during different times of the day in an
attempt to capture the full spectrum of listeners. The TAP usually sells for less per
commercial because the station can fill some of its less desirable time slots.
Vertical banner advertisement - A graphical Web advertising unit that is taller than it is
wide. These ads typically measure 120 pixels wide and 240 pixels tall.
