The Meddlesome Click ….Some Agencies Get It

“A click means nothing. A click earns no revenue and creates

no brand equity. Your online advertising has some goal – and it’s surely not to generate clicks. Regardless of whether they

clicked an ad or not, the key is to determine how that ad unit influenced a consumer to think, feel, or do something they wouldn’t have done otherwise.”

John Lowell

SVP Director, Research & Analytics

Starcom

What We‟ve Learned

E-commerce is growing strongly and gaining share of consumers‟

wallets

– Has pricing power moved to the consumer?

Online advertising is effective, both as a direct response and

branding strategy – The click is at best an incomplete and at worst a misleading metric

– Accurate delivery of media plan is critical

– Digital ad campaigns lift in-store sales

– Creative remains extremely important – For CPG: “Is Display Advertising the New Print?”

– Video holds the key to more powerful online branding campaigns
