Corporate messages on Public Television allow for creativity and style. Many companies run their existing spots on our air, or find that a small change in voice-over is all it takes to fit the PBS guidelines
Your message may be:
- :15 or :30 in length
- Describe your business
- Describe your corporate mission
- Identify and depict products
- Use a slogan
- Use a 1-800# and a web site address
- Use music
- Make an association between your company and the program you sponsor
To maintain public television’s non-commercial character, the FCC has determined that corporate messages may not:
- Use comparative or qualitative language
- Offer price, discount or financing information
- Use calls to action
- Include an inducement to buy
- Include an endorsement
- Use drama
- Use visuals that demonstrate product uses and qualities
