Media combines the views of 5,213

France, Brazil and China and 40
leaders* from all sides of the industry.
This deck highlights 10 killer facts

  1. Building upon its extraordinary growth over the last 5 years both in available channels, and in the ways in which these channels can be accessed, the media market continues to innovate and to evolve.  In this study we consider the impact of communication innovations on those whom they’re designed to engage – the connected adult consumer. At the same time, we consider the views and opinions of a wide range of industry leaders: media sellers, creative, media and PR agencies, advertisers and adtech professionals among them. Our aim is explore the challenges and opportunities faced by these leaders, and to set these alongside the views of those consumers they are trying to reach and influence
  2. However, whilst advances in technology have driven some positive sentiment, retargeting increases frequency amongst those reached. 71% of the total sample agree (or strongly agree) with this statement: ‘Sometimes I see the same ad over and over again, it's too repetitive’. Consumers are reporting to the industry that they see excessive frequency as an issue. As one respondent put it: “We have become so bombarded by advertising I don't take any notice of it anymore.”  These responses from our consumer sample send a strong message: excessive frequency, and an unsophisticated use of retargeting to contact those who’ve already purchased may very well be among the reasons that 20% of connected adults choose to use blockers.   The industry’s progress in using data and programmatic techniques to target existing and prospective customers is in danger of being undermined by these same customers rejecting or actively avoiding the messages sent their way.
