Its a busy world and so much is fighting for our attention...
…then came Television to complicate things a bit…
…then share of voice became a little trickier when Cable TV created fragmentation…
….and then about 10 years ago this notion of digital came about. At the time, digital was limited to banner and text ads. Then along the way we got more creative, the technology became more flexible…
…so here we are today. Search Marketing, Video Advertising, Mobile, In-Game… it’s tricky. But remember, the only easy day was yesterday!Global Media Breakdown 2008 http://www.marketingcharts.com/television/ad-spend-to-grow-67-in-08-internet-to-overtake-radio-in-08-mags-in-10-2596/
What I believe will happen is that “online” in traditional form will stay consistent with slight growth overall, but there will be sift in where and how online media is split – rich will become more accessible.Emerging channels, such as mobile will cannibalise ALL media – not just traditional, but part of online too.However, as the traditional media channels take a digital connection – the concept of driving dynamic digital advertising into those channels will become the norm, and yet still remain as TV or Outdoor, albeit digital variants thereof. This will not be seen as “online” though share the same heritage.It is INSTREAM video, and the technological developments behind them, i.e. Eyeblaster, who will make this scalable – but rather then a tiny percentage of ‘online’ will be a component of the overall media matrix and therefore huge revenue potentials for what will make up the Digital Space overall.2 thoughts: Not everything will NEED to be interactive, just dynamicBehavioural sequencing will become a realistic possibility cross-channel.
According to research by McKinsey Consultants.TV impact not as effective.
We all used to go to record shops – but things are changing.All over world music shops are closing down as people turn to downloading musicAccording to some estimates, the feeling is that by 2015 CDs and DVDs will be a thing of the past as we download or stream our media..Same way as hard pushed to find camera film today...
We are seeing this already. The TV set is no longer just for passive TV viewing – interactivity is happening across devices.And its about to become a lot more interactive...

Volvo is tracking QR codes across their offline print/outdoor advertising via Eyeblaster ACM – pulling a consolidated report combining off and online via mobile phones.
http://www.i-nigma.com/personal/japan.aspThe style of barcode that was adopted is called QR (short for Quick Response) and five short years later, QR codes are recognized by over 90% of Japanese mobile users - and used by over 50% of them - for fast and easy access on the move to encoded information or the internet. More people in Japan now surf the web from a mobile phone than from a PC, and QR codes are found everywhere - in advertising and promotional materials, on product packaging and vending machines - to deliver 'Quick Response'.Almost every Japanese phone ships with a built-in barcode reader that can decode both QR Codes and standard barcodes you find on retail items.
So we need to make sense of what is happening….
It is instant in, and instant out, and then we wonder why relationships don’t last?We try to measure that with the fast paced metric of “click”
Some things have not changed. If I want to build a relationship - Whether that is friends, family, partner. Birthdays, Thanks giving or Christmas, moments when you can all come together and spend quality time.If you want to build something solid, something that is going to last, whether personal or brand, I need to invest in those relationships. It still takes time...
Basic psychology suggests the more senses involved the more you are likely to remember things.A picture says a thousand words; a moving picture with sounds says millions. That is why TV and video works – it develops stories that strike an emotional connections – linked to a person or event that is when the change starts to happen Traditional media has two senses involved – TV sight and sound. Print sight and touch. Digital connects all three – sight, sound AND touch. And none demonstrated more effectively than rich media.
A new research by Eyeblaster, Microsoft Advertising and comScore shows that Dwell does have an actual effect on brand metrics. The research investigated the differences between campaigns with low active engagement as measured by low Dwell and campaigns with high active engagement as measured by high Dwell.The study examined a sample of high dwell campaigns and a sample of low dwell campaigns and compared the difference between them in terms of their brand effects. The robust methodology ensured any positive brand uplift observed was due exclusively to the increase in Dwell.The sample of campaigns was taken out of 800 Rich Media campaigns that were served by Eyeblaster exclusively on Microsoft Advertising sites between January 2009 and June 2009. The 800 campaigns were ranked by total Dwell scores. To ensure a distinct difference between high and low Dwell, the study analyzed campaigns that fell in the top and bottom 10% of the Dwell scale. Overall, 10 campaigns from the low Dwell group and 10 campaigns from the high Dwell group were chosen for the analysis. These 20 were selected for having the largest number of impressions, ensuring the biggest sample sizes for our analysis of over 6,500 panelists. The campaigns covered 8 industry verticals.For each of the 20 campaigns, comScore identified people that had been exposed to the ads. comScore measured those panelists' subsequent online behavior across a four week period and compared those to unexposed panelists and their online behavior. These groups were pair matched—the exposed/unexposed groups were equal except for the fact that the exposed group had seen the ads, the unexposed had not. Groups were matched to ensure equality according to specific demographic and online behavioral variables.Uplift between unexposed and exposed was averaged for the 10 low Dwell and 10 high Dwell campaigns. These average uplifts were compared to evaluate the impact of increased Dwell on subsequent brand effects.To capture both the effect of Dwell Rate and of Average Dwell Time, the research examined the Total Dwell which was defined as Dwell Rate multiplied by Average Dwell Time.
The results of the study indicate that users who were exposed to campaigns with high Dwell are more likely to search for brand related keywords as compared to users who were exposed to campaigns with low Dwell. The research found that users who were exposed to campaigns with low Dwell increased brand related keyword searches by 12%, as compared to the control group, while users who were exposed to campaigns with high Dwell increased brand related keyword search by 39%, as compared to the control group. This shows that campaigns with high Dwell are 3x more effective at driving search than campaigns with low Dwell.
Furthermore, campaigns with low Dwell increased advertisers’ site traffic by 10%, as compared to the control group, while campaigns with high Dwell increased site traffic by 17%. This is an incremental change of 69% between campaigns with low Dwell and campaigns with high Dwell.
Dwell Time reveals a positive impact in favour of the brand and a new benchmark for brand building? Why because it addresses measuring those brand moments.Dwell Time will help brand marketers bring more confidence back into digital and a step closer in to showing how to measure a brand online – and set new parameters which we will be able to move across to Digital TV.And people are engaging with adverts – that is ACTIVELY INTERACTING with adverts for 1 minute!! Twice as long as TV commercial, and guaranteed emotional involvement. This is absolutely key turning point for advertising…
So where are we now? Well following on from what we have learned in 2004, this is ad for this year. Similar concept in terms of content on site, but in a way which is interesting for user to be involved with.What is amazing is the average Dwell time was 2 minutes!!! 4x that of a TV advert!!! Am amazing achievement to get users to stop what they were doing and immerse themselves in a brand experience for 2 minutes… If everthere was evidence for online effectiveness, this should be at the top of all the award tables!!!
35% of everything we do online is communicate – we talk!!
But one thing advertisers have become increasingly aware of, is that the modern consumers have a voice.
Online travel sites can be true trialogue brandsBack in 1996, I was standing on a conference platform talking to a room full of travel agents. I had a laptop in front of me with a dialup connection to the internet, and I decided to take a risk.Andrew Walmsley, co-founder of i-Level12th September 2007 I'd just spent twenty minutes talking to them about how the web might impact on their business, and frankly, they weren't impressed. "People", one delegate said, "will always want the advice only a travel agent could give them".I'd just returned the previous year from a round-the-world tour where every hotel I'd stayed at had been found online, and flushed with confidence, I asked the audience to name anywhere in the world, promising I'd find them a hotel there."Easter Island" called out one smartarse at the back.It took me an admittedly nerve-racking thirty seconds to find one and read out the details.You could have heard a pin drop.Now, travel is one of the biggest commercial sectors online. easyJet sells over 90% of its flights online, around 15% of searches are travel-related, and the European online travel market was worth €38billion last year.Not bad for ten years' work.But although technology gave consumers information about far-away places, access to airline and hotel availability databases and the ability to communicate directly with these organisations (without waiting for the next assistant to be free), it gave them something else - which until recently businesses have not got to grips with.It gave them access to each other.Through sites like tripadvisor, holidaywatchdog and myholidayreport, consumers started telling each other about their real experiences, good and bad."The manager approached us by the pool, saying the fans we'd bought were using too much electricity... we will never stay at this hotel again"The second bedroom in the Chateau had a continuous combination smell of mould and rotting flesh."The sheer granularity of these sites was unachievable before users started creating the content - the daddy of them all, tripadvisor, claims to have over ten million reviews covering 190,000 hotels and 140,000 restaurants.Barry Diller's InterActiveCorp, owners of Expedia, saw the potential back in 2004, when he acquired tripadvisor, placing real reviews next to hotel listings. In the UK, Thomson asks consumers to submit reviews, but and the company reserves the right to edit, refuse and withdraw contributions. The result is a very different feel to tripadvisor - in 15 minutes I wasn't able to find a single negative review.The latest addition to these is a familiar face from the dotcom boom, reincarnated as a travel site.Boo.com is fast, well-designed, packed with useful features that speed up the experience. It seamlessly merges data, listings and user-generated reviews and packages it well. It's honest with its readers - a one-line review read: "situated as it claims on a quiet street, this hotel is also near a noisy one".The old-world view would see this as a high-risk strategy. Placing bad reviews next to hotels you're offering for sale can't be in their commercial interest can it?But the reality is that consumers are using other consumers' opinions to rationalise purchasing decisions. There's nothing a travel site can do about this, so bringing these reviews into the site achieves the double benefit of increasing trust in the agent's brand, and not losing that consumer when they go off to check out your recommendations.Boo crashed and burned the first time round, trying to sell a product people weren't ready to buy online, using technology that users couldn't access using the slow connections of the time, and failing to control costs.This time, it's in a booming sector, with technology that puts the consumer and the users at the very heart of creating its product - a true trialogue brand.

What started with Amazon reviews is now part of the mainstream – feedback / star ratings!!!!Web 2.0 – conversation - people talk back!If you prompt for response, people will ‘discuss’ your brand… Not always positively = difficult to manage in this new 2-way conversational world…
The most significant global change is in seeing a new leader arise in the US.He utilized digital media in his campaign to connect to the masses – not just domestically, but globally.He reached to every man & woman, irrespective of social standing, and asked “their opinion”Partly because he appears in midst of a recession, partly in midst of international relations. People are ready for change.Things need to change, lets just restart. In fact lets refresh everything.That’s what Pepsi caught onto… this “refresh” aspect that he was encapsulating…
So Pepsi utilised social media to get people to say what they would like to see changed or not changed when Obama comes to power.They focussed on social networks, like YouTube, and wanted to start a conversation with the audience, backed by leading public figures, to get people to tell Obama what they thought.They did not go out with we taste better then coke, they were very subtle with the “refresh” aspect, via brand association with a sea-change globally.
http://creativezone.eyeblaster.com/#ItemName=Pepsi%20-%20Dear%20Mr%20President%20The key aspect was the messages distributed online contained the people to connect where they were…In this case, via a web cam, directly within the banner itself – that submitted direct to YouTube.People exposed to messages could get involved without leaving where they are. And it worked.When looking at the number of videos submitted to YouTube - 14% did so through the banner!
From data collected across one Automotive advertiser over a six month period, the conversion rate of campaigns using an optimization algorithm (0.63%) is significantly higher (1.25x) than the average conversion rate of rich media ads (0.51%). Consequentially it is practically double the average conversion rate for WW ’08 – 0.32%.Huge spikes are seen in optimised advertising over 6 monthsAnd is a feature that is grossly underused in digital advertising.
