The average American is exposed to ten THOUSAND [10,000] ads every single day all as part of an industry that is worth nearly a TRILLION dollars run by some of the biggest companies in the world. [Google, Facebook META, Linkedin, CBS, NBC, Fox]
But you probably don’t even remember the ad that played before this video, so how many more ads can companies cram in? or are we already past the point of no return? You can only learn so much in a day and according to research conducted by the National Institute of health you will forget half of everything you learn within an hour. There is no possible way that even if you tried to listen to every single ad that you are exposed to on a daily basis that you would remember everything, they were trying to sell you. MOST people are NOT trying to pay as much attention to advertising as humanly possible, they are doing the opposite. MOST people try to avoid it by skipping the ads, getting up from their TV during commercial breaks and becoming wise to carefully disguised product placements.
People also get annoyed by the constant interruptions. Nexxen an advertising technology platform and Magna Media conducted a survey on participants that were exposed to a different frequency of the same advertisement one, four or SIX times in a one hour viewing session.
Participants who only viewed the advertisement once reported a higher intent to purchase an advertised product but participants who saw the ad six times said that they were actually sixteen percent [16%] LESS likely to purchase it because they found the product disruptive to their overall experience. So if we can’t possibly remember all of the ads shoved in our face AND they become less effective the more they are served to us, the means we must have hit peak advertising right? WRONG?
If advertising didn’t work, companies wouldn’t spend nearly a TRILLION dollars on it every year, which is an insane amount of money that is predicted to grow.
The first reason is that companies are widening the way that they can advertise to us. The largest category of advertising is probably what you think of when you think of advertising, forty-five [45] second commercials that give the audience some basic information about the five P’s of advertising. The product, the price, the people it’s for, the promotion running on it and the place where they can buy it. All advertising will have some or all of these details in the ad. Traditional advertising is still very popular because it builds awareness of brands and products that might not convert into sales for days or YEARS after the advertisement was aired.
Awareness advertising works particularly well for fast moving consumer goods, the shelves of a WalMart or Krogers are filled with products, but those products have packaging, and that packaging is like a mini billboard designed to stand out and get your attention. Competition for shelf space at big box retailers is FIERCE amongst brands, and it’s getting more heated as big box retailers release their own white label products like Sams Choice and Great Value. Companies want as much shelf space as they can get, but retailers want to maximize their floorspace to the fastest moving products so the best way for a company to get shelf space is to show retailers how much they are spending on traditional awareness advertising.
Because it’s so effective it’s also expensive and it’s what makes up a majority of googles income. Google is not a tech company, it’s an advertising company that runs a search engine on the side.
Online advertising has grown in parallel with ecommerce.
Search advertising also benefits from big data because an advert on tv is going to be seen by everybody watching if they are a potential customer or not, but advertising on a search result can use collected data and advanced algorithms to make suggestions with the highest likelihood of sales conversion.
There is also another category of advertising that has been growing rapidly and that is influencer advertising, so it’s time to learn How Money Works

Maybe things are kinda just going okay and people have disposable income, so advertising success is a false positive. Case in point. There's no cigarette ads, but the tobacco industry still rakes in billions in profits. I would take this further and hazard a guess that Toyota could stop advertising right now and people would still pay a premium for their products.

The notion that advertising must be efficient because companies continue to do it has a fundamental problem: companies engage in many stupid, counterproductive activities for a variety of reasons. Advertising is a bubble, closely linked to the data bubble. With the cost of living continuing to increase, consumption will continue to decrease See also: HR continuing to exist, corporate feudalism, and corporate real estate
@CD4017BE
@CD4017BE 7 месяцев назад
I think it is really hard to objectively measure how effective advertising is at increasing sales. And at the same time advertising companies have high monetary incentives to pretend that their advertisements are more effective than they actually are (keeping in mind that most advertisement research is done by the companies who sell the advertisement, not the ones who buy it). So it is probably safe to say companies spend much more money on advertisements than what would actually be most profitable. And then there is another factor: advertisement is a competition trap. The more resources your competitor invests into ads the more you have to invest as well in order to stay visible. And this doesn't even need to be completely true, as long as company executives believe that it is true.

yeah, I kinda chuckled at the idea that just because it's worth a lot of money, it's effective. Any honest marketing consultant (read: virtually none of them) will tell you that advertising is a scam being propped up by grifters and bots and lent credibility by status from wealth rather than results. There's a nebulous idea that in high enough volume, advertising ensures social clout like in the case of Pepsi or McDonalds, but most online advertising is bought and sold well outside of that intent because that level of presence is inaccessible without billions to take over a market. Most of it's bought to drive traffic and, in turn, sales, which are transparently available metrics that have gone down the drain over the last 10 years due to clickfarms, bots, and grifters, with no industry incentive or external regulation to tune out those forces because doing so would crash the industry. Put simply: when Twitter is revealed to be 60+% bot traffic and nothing about its advertising scheme, business worth or content model changes because of it, that tells you all you need to know - everyone there already knew it was a scam, and they're continuing to fool stupid business owners or marketing firms regardless.

A general rule of thumb is that the more money a company has to dedicate to advertising, the worse the actual product is since they have to overcompensate so much. If you need to use psychological manipulation derived from peer reviewed research studies to (hopefully) get someone to buy your product, that's a red flag.

True. And it's a mess. You can't go anywhere almost from a respite. Advertisers want our attention 24/7/365 to push crap down our throats and say buy buy buy and spend spend spend. Everywhere-from cabs wrapped in ads, to ads on buses and signs at bus stops and in the subways. Go to any sports arena or game and the field s named for a product and the ads line the outfield or the billboards etc. On planes they were hawking the credit cards but I haven't seen that on my last two flights. Thank you God. The biggest culprit now is the internet. I can't open a browser to get something done without the page covered in distracting and interfering ads. Pop up blockers have been defeated eith new technology where they embed the ads in the pages. Sometimes I turn off the images and the sound and that helps. But it's a mess. On television too. It's gotten worse and worse.

I believe Steve Levitt had a study that showed that advertising isn't really that effective when it's a product/brand that everyone knows already (e.g. Toys R Us advertising its Black Friday/Holiday sales). The main area that advertisements were effective was for new products/brands that people didn't previously know about. Ad agencies were like "yeah but look we advertise more in november/early december and our sales go up!" when in reality the sales would've gone up anyways - correlation not causation

Ad blockers all the way. Add script blockers, element blockers and sponsorship blockers on top of it (the last is for the most egregious things though). I simply cannot imagine using Internet without these big 4. Not only it's annoying, it's actually dangerous because of all the viruses, spyware and malware that riddles those ads. I still shudder at the memories of times where ad blockers weren't a thing and those blinking banners running away from your mouse cursor were trying to install some "products" without your consent.

One of the best proofs that advertising works is the American obsession with brand loyalty. There are plenty of store brands that offer comparable quality at a distinctly lower price, yet people are happy to pay extra for their beloved brands. This phenomenon is less pronounced in Europe, where no name brands are more commonly bought. It may have to do with quality. The branded product and the store brand product are often manufactured by the same company.

There is definitely some level of confirmation bias with advertising, but many companies figured out how to counter the avoidance mentality long ago by skirting the line of a monopoly and creating an oligopoly where the biggest brands basically own most of the products available. A prime example of this is how like 7-8 companies actually own pretty much all nonlocal brands of grocery goods.

I live in the American Gardens building on West 81st street. My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water activated gel cleanser. Then a honey almond body scrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then apply an herb mint facial mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me. Only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable I simply am not there.

Bear in mind that the purpose of most ads isn't to get you to rush out and buy something right now. Typically it's just the company reminding you that they exist or associating a certain image or feeling with their brand so that when you do want something, they come to mind. Take something simple like bread: where do you buy yours and why? Like _really_ why? Why do people pay $6 at the local bakery rather than $4 for mass-market bread or $2 for store-brand bread? Usually because of an idea, somewhat based in fact and somewhat in feeling, that the more expensive option is better: more nutritious, more ethical, more befitting their lifestyle, or whatever else. Those ideas seep in over time through advertising and branding.

Maybe it's just me but I dislike ads so much that I specifically don't buy products that show up in them. I've never once clicked on a banner ad. I stopped watching cable because of the commercials, and I don't use the internet without an ad blocker. The ads are so intrusive it's not worth it. What I *would* accept is just a list somewhere, just a basic webpage, where every company selling something can list themselves and their "P's", so that I can find out about companies and products I've never heard of and compare them. The fake "top 10" lists that populate at least the first page of every search result seems to be about as close as we're gotten so far, but those are all Amazon ads and the fact that they all falsely present themselves as third-party reviews does not give me ANY more faith in Amazon.

Part of the problem is most people don't research. I'm a massage therapist and constantly have people tell me they don't know how to find a massage therapist. They don't google, ask friends, search on social media or anything. They wait to be advertised to which means they end up at big chains that can afford to advertise. If all advertising suddenly went away most people wouldn't know how to find anything they want. It's the thing that surprised me the most when I started working for myself. Most people do not research the products and services they spend money on.

I am not very materialistic, so when I am walking through a shopping mall with relatives, I tend to ignore everything. It's weird, nothing can influence me. In fact, most of the things they sell in a shopping mall are useless to me. They are mostly generic products that wear out fast, that are only expensive for the brand name. Fashion generally sucks utility wise. Finding malls quite boring, I'd rather be out in the wilderness somewhere or in the ocean. Most of the products that I wear are well researched, low profile, and high tech from companies people never heard before.

Best of all are YT ads. Yesterday I got an hour long Netflix ad, and actually watched it all, bc it was interesting. Within an hour I get the same ad again. Google has alpha fold, working speech recognition, and good language translation AI. But I think the A team works in xyz R&D, and the F team works at YT, writing perl scripts to randomly select the ads with no intelligence at all. And don't get me started on their "trust & safety" team, handing out warnings and bans with no reason given, based apparently on regular expression matches with no review at all. I get the game theory of not telling ppl too much about your detection algs, but if you dont like links in comments you could just say so when the user hits submit, and save the stealth detection nonsense for ppl who try to obfuscate links and are obviously trying to sell something. Those abusive policies have made me re think relying on gmail or getting YT premium.

Very good video, HMW, as usual. Congratulations! Personally, I am unduly fascinated by the topic of advertising, which is not unlike a sane's person fascination with evil, or legal true crime, if you like. I am somewhat surprised that you skipped one of the most common form of (indirect) advertising, which is the slotting fee (sometimes called a slotting allowance or shelf placement fee). That's right, companies usually have to pay for their products to be displayed on the store shelves. They have to pay for the duration and pay extra for prominent shelves, especially the end caps (the display at the end of an isle). Contracts may also include provisions that the manufacturer must take back the goods unsold at the end of the agreed time period and pay for them. This whole practice has been in use since the 80s.

WE CAN'T CONSUME YOUR PRODUCT IF WE'RE BROKE. The most effective thing corporations could do with their advertising budgets is cut them by 75% and spend the money on pay raises for their worst-paid workers. $750 billion in wage increases would make a big difference. Brand name stuff is universally too expensive. When there's a generic alternative available at much better dollar value I buy it every time. Big corpos are so obsessed with cutting costs through cutting quality (but never by cutting bloated executive pay or egregious stock buyback schemes) that the generic alternatives are as good or better a surprising amount of the time.

Now, everyone else (radio, TV, internet) has probably caught up. I wish I HAD counted the ads per hour with my stopwatch back then, so I would have a comparison!

Yeah, there's a saying that's been around for decades that 50% of all advertising is wasted because it doesn't bring in any sales, but no one knows which 50% that is so they keep on wasting money. When you run ads on a ton of different platforms at once how are you supposed to know which ones are working and which aren't? Data tracking can only tell you so much about how effective an ad is.

Or I will buy something that maybe an influencer or a friend likes and I may like but It isnt an ad and something it seems they genuinely like.

I think something that should also be said is that while we haven't reached peak advertising, we've reached peak disposable income, as a whole. People are currently barely able to afford the bare necessities. The housing market is a mess. The divide between rich and poor is steadily increasing. The middle class is slowly being eroded. And yet, we're expected to buy more and more things that we can increasingly ill-afford. I might be wrong about all of this, of course. I am, after all, just some stupid individual on the internet whom may or may not be a dog. But at the end of the day, we're less humans and more wallets to have value extracted from by all those companies and corporations. Or, at least, that's how it feels like.

I've studied advertising and now I'm working in marketing, it's interesting to see the shift in advertising. There was a time when companies used to put in the effort to give the best product and impress the customer. Now the message is diluted, copy/paste from brand to brand, barely telling you anything new or interesting. The price is not about quality anymore, you buy a polyester sweater and pay +$200 just because it has a brand on the tag. You buy electronics that will survive only a day past warranty. Every time you search for a product you'll not get results for the one with best quality but the one with the bigger budget for advertising. It will get even more complicated if you want to open a business and have to compete with one of the Giants. The corporate idea of increasing the profit numbers but giving less and less to customer is destroying the advertising and marketing industry...
