Ad market ‘surprisingly’ resilient despite 13% slump this year

Posted on 19/06/202015/04/2021 by Alva van Beek

The UK advertising market is forecast to decline by 13% year on year in 2020, according to media agency GroupM, but it is expecting the sector to bounce back next year with growth of 13%.

While the figure shows a steep fall this year, GroupM believes the extent of the decline is “potentially surprising” given the economic outlook for the year. EY’s chief economist forecasts that UK GDP growth will fall by 8% this year, compared to the 4.2% drop experienced during the 2009 recession.

Yet the decline in UK ad spend is not expected to be commensurately worse, with this year’s decline only one percentage point below the 12% decline experienced in 2009.

Gen Z acquires a TV habit

Posted on 19/06/202015/04/2021 by Alva van Beek

Gen Z is typically less engaged with traditional media, but COVID-19 is drawing a younger audience to TV and is likely to change their media consumption habits permanently.

That’s the view of Daniel Bischoff, chief marketing & operations officer at RTL AdConnect, part of the Luxembourg-based media group RTL Group.

Writing for WARC, he notes that “all over Europe, television … is regaining its role as the ‘family hearth’” – a place where people come together to catch up on the day’s news and seek out entertainment.

He reports that while the data indicates a rise in viewing is apparent across all age groups, this is most significant among the younger population.

“Figures from the Netherlands, for example, show a 155% increase in the amount of kids TV being watched; in France there is an increase of 21 percentage points in the number of 15- to 24-year-olds watching TV each day.

62% of advertisers are cutting brand-building investment

Posted on 04/06/202015/04/2021 by Alva van Beek

Three-fifths (62%) of brands say they will decrease their investment in brand advertising in the coming months, according to the latest survey of brands across the world from Ebiquity, conducted in May.

Just 16% of brands surveyed said they will be investing more in brand advertising, with one-fifth (22%) reporting no change. Brand-building was expected to get more attention from marketers this year but the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and an incoming economic recession has forced brands to refocus on short-term survival.

Performance advertising has also seen a steep hit, with 41% of brands cutting investment and just 10% reporting an increase. Overall, advertising spend is now expected to drop by 8.1% – or $50bn – this year.

Instead, brands have shifted their investment to e-commerce. One-third (32%) report more spending on e-commerce, the highest share across all seven business areas. This shouldn’t be surprising given the surge in online shopping – half of all consumers plan to shop online more after COVID-19 ends.

Half of online adspend never reaches publishers, new study finds

Posted on 07/05/202015/04/2021 by Alva van Beek

A major study has revealed the alarming extent of the labyrinth-like supply chain involved in online advertising, and reveals that around 50% of the money spent by advertisers is gobbled up by middlemen.

The two-year study, published by the Incorporated Society of British Advertisers (ISBA) and carringied out by PwC, is the first to look in detail at the supply chain of online advertising, a market worth around £2 billion in the UK, and some £100 billion worldwide.

In addition to discovering that half a brand’s adspend never reaches the publisher, researchers also found they were completely unable to trace 15% of the money spent by advertisers.

(Blogpost Marc van Eck) ‘Snij niet in advertising & promotional spend’

Posted on 06/05/202015/04/2021 by Alva van Beek

Het lijkt wel of de crisis maakt dat we alles vergeten wat we ooit in de collegebanken hebben geleerd. De korte termijn overheerst en tegen beter weten in zetten we de toekomst even uit. Dat is zonde. Waar de merkbelofte richting geeft aan het wát, kleurt je merkkarakter het hóe. Dat werkt in de kern heel eenvoudig. Een hartelijk merk moet hartelijk zijn, een avonturiersmerk moet het avontuur opzoeken.

Een crisis is heel naar, zeker deze. Angst regeert, maar blijkt vaak een slechte raadgever hoewel achteraf het natuurlijk makkelijk praten is. De vraag is wat nú wijsheid is om te doen. Mag je als merk commercieel zijn terwijl iedereen pijn leidt? Mijn mening is duidelijk. Het mag niet, het moet. Je moet dingen doen die je merk sterker maken en waar de wereld beter van wordt. Dat is de duurzame manier om samen uit de crisis te komen.
