Hello,

I am looking for the following information regarding the advertising
budgets on premium rate numbers in Europe:

What is volume of advertising of premium rates numbers (money spent on
ads) in the countries listed below, and what is the portion between
adult services and non adult services.

Please note that the information should be concentrated on Audio services.

The list should include as much European countries, but at least:

2 of the following: Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark
2 of the following: Belgium, Portugal, Ireland, Austria
6 of the following: Germany, Holland, UK , Spain, Italy, Poland, The
Czech Republic, Hungary, , France, Greece

The information should be segmented to the printed media, teletext,
magazines, radio, TV, other (ordered by priority)


Please note that I do not want to be referred to a market research.
But I look for the information it self.

Thank you,

Sharon Shani Gurman

Request for Question Clarification by pafalafa-ga on 20 Nov 2003 08:28 PST

Hello Sharon,

I'd like to look into this for you, but I must admit, I'm having a bit
of difficulty understanding, exactly, what it is you're after.

Could you clarify your question a bit?  In particular:

--You seem to be looking for the amount of money spent on advertising
in countries in Europe -- is this correct?  Is this what is meant by
"premium rate numbers"?

--What do you mean by "adult services and non-adult services"  (the
phrase "adult services" sometimes is used in connection with
pornography, but I don't think that's what you're looking for, are
you..?)

--When you say the information should be concentrated on "Audio
services", what do you mean by this?

--You also asked to have the information segmeneted by adverstising
media, including "teletext"  -- what is that?

There is a lot of information available on advertising expenditures in
Europe, and I'd be glad to summarize it for you.  But I do not want to
post it if it doesn't meet your needs.  Any clarification of your
question that you can provide would be a great help.

Thanks.

Clarification of Question by sharonshani-ga on 21 Nov 2003 08:23 PST

Premium rate services  - are audio services given by phone, for
example 0900-xx xx in the netherlands, or 0190 -xx xx xx in germany.

Adult services are basiclly sex lines: "call to talk with hot ladies" :) 

I wnat to learn about the size of the market, from learning how much
money is spent on advertizing.

Hope this hleps.
