Premium Online Video Ads Generate Greater Brand/Message Recall than Video Ads on Non-TV Content Sites and Ad Networks(demo expanded to increase available sample size); specific brands/ creative executions vary between streaming full episode and other online video sites/ad networks. Non-premium online video includes a combination of in-banner/in-stream video ad formats.
In a recent presentation at the Advertising Research Foundation’s annual RE: Think conference, Dave Kaplan, Senior Vice President, Product Leadership at Nielsen IAG, and Beth Uyenco, Director of Global Research at Microsoft, discussed the ins and outs of online advertising and how to effectively reach video viewers. Evaluating 238 brands encompassing 412 products in 951 ad executions in streaming full-episode TV programs, Nielsen IAG used the key brand impact metrics of ad recall, brand recall, message recall and likeability to determine the effectiveness of ads. More than 14,000 surveys were conducted.The patterns they uncovered were consistent: video ads run during online full-episode TV programs yield deeper brand impact than corresponding on-air TV ads, with the difference most pronounced among younger viewers age 13-34
But the results of the study don’t point toward an “either or” approach to advertising dollar allocation, especially given that audience reach and CPMs can vary greatly between linear TV and online streaming TV. Instead, the data suggests the benefits of utilizing both platforms in tandem to achieve advertising objectives.“It appears that leveraging the large reach of TV in combination with the standalone impact and amplifying effect of online video makes for a successful marketing strategy,” said Kaplan.Specifically, online video ads help to reinforce and strengthen the impact of a traditional TV campaign. Including online video advertising in the media mix and synchronizing with TV greatly improves all key brand metrics, especially message recall.
