television advertising
7. RESEARCH QUESTION
FINDINGS
BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW TV’S IMPACT IN DRIVING KPIs
HAS CHANGED, AND HOW TV’S IMPACT COMPARES WITH
OTHER MEDIA
IN SPITE CHANGING CONSUMER BEHAVIOR, THE ROI FROM
TV SPEND HAS NOT CHANGED OVER THE LAST 5 YEARS
TV’S ROI IS DRAMATICALLY HIGHER THAN OTHER MEDIA
8. RESEARCH QUESTION
FINDINGS
MANY BRAND ADVERTISERS HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY CUT
THEIR TV SPEND. WHAT IMPACT DOES THAT HAVE ON SALES
ATTRIBUTED TO TV ADVERTISING?
REDUCED TV AD SPEND YIELDS A $94M COMBINED LOSS IN
SALES, REPRESENTING 68% OF THEIR ORIGINAL SALES
AVERAGE SALES LOSS IS NEARLY 3X THE AVERAGE DECREASE IN
AD SPEND
WHILE BOTH REACH AND FREQENCY WERE DIMINISHED BY THE
REDUCED BUDGET, THE LOSS OF EFFECTIVE FREQUENCY HAD A
LARGER IMPACT ON REDUCED ROI
9. RESEARCH QUESTION
FINDINGS

25. DEVELOPING SUCCESSFUL TV CAMPAIGNS
IPSOS, “10 RULES FOR TV STRATEGY”, ADMAP, 2014
(WE FOCUS ON THE 3 MOST IMPORTANT ONES)
Proposition #1 & #2:
- 75% of TV cut-through is due to creative
- Half of all TV ads fail to achieve objectives due to weak branding
IRI Norms:
More closer to 60% actual sales impact vs. survey-based
breakthrough and recall measured by IPSOS ASI.
Proposition #3
- Campaigns with fewer executions tend to be more effective.
IRI Norms:
Too many creatives are indeed sub-optimal, generally 3 is optimal
26. DIGITAL VIDEO CAN EFFICIENTLY ENHANCE THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF TRADITIONAL MEDIA CAMPAIGNS
Digital is a great Creative Incubator
Creative can drive over half of the overall campaign lift, but finding the right creative is not easy,
Digital makes ad-testing a much more iterative process
Successful TV Campaigns that started out as viral videos

32. FINDINGS
• Media ROI beats Promo ROI in both the short and long term but spending is
heavily tilted towards trade
- Trend is consistent across CPG categories
- High Promotional investment also negatively impacts brand equity
• Larger brands and brands with higher penetration generate the most Media ROI
however Media is important for smaller brands as improvement in Media ROI is
related to better growth for them
• As expected Media generates higher ROI among more involved categories where
the messaging resonates more
• TV is highly synergistic to digital and more investment in TV helps boost digital
performance
