Can a newspaper in a 10-year decline learn something about marketing from the TV networks?

Historically, newspapers have been marketed as one big brand for all news, information and lifestyle interests. But today's consumer, facing a proliferation of media and information sources, looks at newspapers not as a whole but as "programming" components. Sections of the newspaper each have their own audiences, just like TV programs. So we invented a strategy that linked cable programming with newspaper "programming." Larry King Live audiences saw TV spots featuring the Trib's columnists. CNBC Morning Update audiences saw TV spots about the Trib's business section. Movie audiences saw TV spots focused on the Trib's entertainment section. Food Network's Iron Chef audiences learned about the Trib's food section.

Our data-driven segmentation strategy, in short, created a logical path for consumers and married two similar media usage habits, increasing readership by 6% overall — more importantly, by 12% among professional college-educated adults, and by 14% among residents living in Salt Lake City for fewer than three years.
