A Media Planner's View: Where to Place
Use De Telegraaf when the campaign needs reach across the Netherlands together with relevance for business and investor messages. Place financial and property advertising near the financial news, and use telegraaf.nl to extend frequency.
For a tighter premium audience we pair it with a more analytical national title, and with airport and inflight media for Dutch business travellers.
Masscom Expert Recommendation: Why Advertise Here
De Telegraaf is the Dutch daily with the widest everyday reach. For investment, property, banking and premium brands, it puts a message in front of a large audience that includes entrepreneurs and affluent households, not only specialists.
How we would use it. We combine print display with telegraaf.nl, and place financial and property messages near the financial news. Creative should be in Dutch to match the paper's voice.
Our guidance. Because the readership is broad, we target through section, day and position so premium and investor messages reach the right readers.
How We Would Run Your De Telegraaf Campaign
We start with the audience you need to reach, whether that is investors, business owners or high-net-worth families, and work back to the title, section and edition that put you in front of them. The schedule follows from that.
The rest is ours to handle: creative adapted for Dutch, the insertion booked and proofed, and reporting once the advertisement has run.
