Distrust about advertising is endemic

posted in Advertising, Branding |

Liz Bigham SUP/Director of marketing for Brand Marketing for Jack Morton Worldwide tells us just 9% of the 91 million viewers who watched the 2006 Superbowl ads could remember the ads a week later.

Combine that figure with the massive increase in consumers who distrust advertising (the number or complaints about deceptive advertising doubled between 1997 and 2001) and you have a serious disconnect.

If consumers can’t remember what you’ve said and don’t trust the medium you’re using to talk to them its time to change. Its time to reallocate your brand dollars to experiential activities that will generate advocacy for your brand.

    Thanks for these tips. One thing I should also believe is the fact credit cards offering a 0% interest rate often attract consumers together with zero monthly interest, instant acceptance and easy on the net balance transfers, nevertheless beware of the main factor that is going to void your own 0% easy streets annual percentage rate plus throw anybody out into the terrible house rapid.

    Thanks for your concepts. One thing I’ve noticed is that banks as well as financial institutions are aware of the spending behavior of consumers and understand that the majority of people max out their credit cards around the vacations. They sensibly take advantage of this kind of fact and commence flooding your inbox along with snail-mail box using hundreds of Zero APR credit cards offers soon after the holiday season finishes. Knowing that in case you are like 98% of the American public, you’ll leap at the chance to consolidate consumer credit card debt and transfer balances towards 0 APR credit cards.
