attention in advertising: Karen Nelson-Field
not all attention is equal
Not all attention is equal. That seems intuitively correct, but it’s something Karen Nelson-Field was determined to quantify, and on Nov. 16th she shared the results of her latest research on video advertising effectiveness.
Attention is a critical, but often overlooked, advertising metric: Not only is attention directly correlated to an uplift in sales, but unsurprisingly, if no attention is paid, there is no chance that an ad will work.
Karen’s research – conducted in a number of countries including the US, Australia and Germany – found that in all markets, TV delivers more ‘active attention’ seconds, and subsequently more sales uplift, than any other platform.
Furthermore, TV ads have a longer impact on sales than any other platform.
To fully appreciate the scope and implications of this research, be sure to watch the short presentation.
