SA & SADC media facts 2014 edition

T
he updated OMD SA Media Facts for 2014 comes at time of dramatic change in the structure and direction of above-the-line advertising, and not just in South Africa. The economies of many sub-Saharan countries continue to expand at an ever-increasing pace and new technology is driving the penetration of internet access across the continent. Global multi-national companies look to Africa’s vibrant economies and see growth potential and new consumers offering opportunities for expansion that are not there in the saturated markets of developed countries. China and India are also well established - Africa is the new frontier. In terms of media, looking at the South African market there has been a dramatic decline in Print revenues over the past five years (from a 40% share in 2007 to 29% in 2012), the big winners being TV and the Internet. In fact, 2013 was the year that Naspers, one of the giants of SA Media, announced that its Internet division had overtaken pay TV as its key revenue driver. This, surely, is a pointer to the way things are going to go, if we were ever in any doubt. The Internet will eventually become the portal through which we view all our news and much of our entertainment; the new generation of smart TVs have begun to blur that line already, whilst just about every print title of any stature has had an on-line presence for years. The printed edition of
the Financial Times that came to South Africa will soon be available only online. How long will it be before the tipping point is reached for other highend specialist titles? Once tablets and smartphones increase penetration into the lower LSMs, popular magazines and less highbrow newspapers will then also begin to wonder what the point is of carrying on with paper and ink. All of this is good news for advertisers in the long term because digital media is so measurable. In many African countries the research and accountability we take for granted in SA simply doesn’t exist, and this has been a barrier to media investment from clients who, quite rightly, want to know how many consumers they are able to reach for the money they are spending. Once again, digital will change the game. In the meantime, SA Media Facts continues to provide advertisers with some basic demographic and economic insights for the SADC region, as well as hard data on media consumption and penetration by category where the research is available. We hope you find it useful. Josh Dovey, CEO www.omd.co.za

The market: Traditionally each major urban centre has had its own set of competing English and/or Afrikaans dailies. Last decade has seen a surge in popular journalism with the launch and massive success of Daily Sun. Revenue is under extreme pressure. Circulation trend: most dailies have a moderate to severe circulation decline. Readership trend: Larger English dailies exhibit a black readership in excess of 50%, blurring editorial appeals between black and White categories.

The market: SA has over 600 trade, technical and professional journals and annuals, most of which are small-circulating and highly niched. Turnover of titles is high. The two big financial weeklies together with Engineering News dominate adspend. Circulation trend: Pressure on printing and distribution (i.e. postage) costs forces publishers to continually cut non-core market circulation. Publishing costs and pressure on revenue is driving titles online and to e-ditions.
