Q. How much does it cost to make a television commercial?
A. Several years ago, a New York Times story stated that the average cost of producing a 30-second national television commercial in 1999 was $343,000. The Times said this figure came from a survey of 1,753 national spots produced by 20 agencies. I believe that, today, the figure would be closer to $500,000. In contrast, a local advertiser with a compelling call to action should be able to get a nice, basic commercial produced for less than $2000. Fancy graphics, animation, professional actors, special music, custom jingles, etc all add to the cost of production, however this is all managed in the planning stages of your campaign, therefore there should never be any surprises.
