This presentation outlines key findings from Peter Field’s 2017 IPA-related research, Effectiveness in an Evolving Media Landscape, produced with effectiveness expert Les Binet.

We are raiding our brands, withdrawing our ability to create awareness. It is an immensely damaging and corrosive trend in marketing.

– Peter Field

 


“Activation campaigns” and a focus on short-term tactics are on the rise


But at the same time, effectiveness has fallen


Short-termism is undermining advertising effectiveness

While activation campaign scan generate a short-term sales lift, it comes at the expense of brand-building.


TV has become more effective

Field also states that mass marketing – broad reach, awareness campaigns – are key to a brand’s growth.

Furthermore he & Binet found that TV has become more effective in the last 10 years, thanks in large part of synergies with digital.
