media effectiveness in Canada

 

a TV playbook for online brands in Canada

e-Commerce has exploded over the past few years, with new direct-to-consumer brands launching all the time. The entry point into advertising for most online businesses is in online channels – using search, social media, display – but that only takes them so far; eventually, most hit a ceiling, and when that happens, TV advertising offers an opportunity to take their business to the next level.

In this webinar, Dr. Grace Kite and Sarah Stallwood will unveil the results of a brand-new econometric study, conducted by Magic Numbers, that tracks the effect of TV on a number of Canadian online businesses: The increase in website visits, the types of online journeys TV initiates, and the role TV plays in improving SEM outcomes. Grace will also share advice from top marketers who have been through this journey.

With more than 20 years’ experience, Dr. Grace Kite is a business economist who’s worked on more than 120 econometrics projects across all the main advertising buying categories. In each of these categories, she has developed deep knowledge on market trends and the true nature of competition.

Grace is a columnist at marketing week and WARC and a regular speaker on marketing effectiveness. With over 4,000 social media followers, she now appears alongside the likes of Mark Ritson and Les Binet.

Her writing and talks set out to ‘lift the lid’ in a way that normal people can understand.

After earning a PhD in Economics, Grace took on increasingly senior roles at Mindshare, Millward Brown, Holmes & Cook, Mediacom, PHD and OMD. In 2010 she founded the business now known as magic numbers.

Her work has led to twelve IPA Effectiveness award winners plus a Cannes Grand Prix. She was a technical judge for the 2020 IPA awards, and will judge for WARC in 2021.
