Is it just me who finds odd they put advertising production and media buying all mixed into "adversiting", yet break it down by media channel?

It's usually: production + media

I read their advertising breakdown as media purchased, unless production is diluted in the value (which I doubt because you can use ads across social media channels for example, despite having different specs).

Or they just don't want to disclose it, which is completely fine :)

Not marketing professional here, but I'm surprised at how almost all of the budget went to payroll related expenses. I would have imagined higher percentage spent on advertising spot, online and offline.

Yeah, it's cool to see a budget. But then it's puzzling because I don't know what a marketing team does besides advertise.
