thinktv is pleased to welcome back Richard Shotton, behavioural science consultant and author of The Choice Factory. In this session Richard will highlight how behavioural science can be used to optimize media and creative development, including new research that will give marketers the edge.
As an industry we pride ourselves on staying on top of the latest trends and gadgets – but it turns out that those technological and culturally forward behaviours are impacting our perceptions about how Canadians use and perceive different media.

Our new report TV in a Pandemic, developed in partnership with Ipsos, outlines Canadians’ perceptions about television, advertising, and buying behaviour. The research reveals the top reasons for watching TV (it’s not just news!), who Canadians trust, and – importantly for advertisers – their attitudes towards trying new brands and the media that’s most likely to influence them.

To that end we have put together a collection of insights from industry experts to help you navigate in this uncertain time, and to ensure that the brand decisions you make today set you up for success tomorrow.
