Where the Reader Eye Roams
Article Abstract:
An advertiser must take a number of factors into consideration when writing and designing an advertisement. Media schedules, the nearness of competing advertisements and editorial copy in a publication will have a strong impact on readership scores. Some recall-based readership surveys have high error rates. A method called eye tracking is currently used by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the Federal Aviation agency in their design research. Eye tracking data can be combined with an interviews to evaluate how well an advertisement generates attention. Eye tracking goes beyond measuring memory and actually documents the extent to which a consumer sees an advertisement and associates the sales message with the advertiser's name.

Job turnover has been rampant for the direct marketing industry. Minorities and women are not sufficiently represented in the direct marketing industry.
