After a ratings fall in 2007, music television station ‘MTV’ turned to an aggressive approach to branded advertising. Nielsen’s’ commercial ratings currency displayed that between 13 and 15 percent of viewers left the channel doing commercial breaks, this is compared to an average of 8 and 10 percent for other networks. In a bid to counteract this, ‘MTV’ began using ‘product integration’ to convince companies to continue their business with the station. An example of this was the ‘Herbal essences’ ‘win a trip too the MTV music awards’ promotion. A Multi episode commercial series (American Eagle’s “It’s a Mall World”) was trialled along with creating entire TV shows around a brand (Unilever’s “Game killers”) for Axe body spray.
