Are you frustrated with the lack of results you’re seeing from your banner ads?
Peter Platt, President of PSquared Digital, has written an article you need to read: The 5 superpowers of banner ads we’ve overlooked.
According to Platt, banner ads have gotten a bad rap over the years — and it’s mostly our own fault. It’s time to move past the “because we’ve always done it that way” metrics, like click-through rates, and focus on what banner ads do well:
- Building awareness
- Targeting
- Variety
- Uniqueness
- Cost efficiency
- Viewability and privacy
Platt concludes by challenging the notion that it’s time to move all your media to display. Like all silver bullets that have come before it, display ads are not the panacea many are trying to make them out to be. Not even close.
As we share with our MITTON Media clients, the right media mix is still incredibly important. Brand impact and awareness are important, too. If no one is aware of your product, you’re not going to get sales, right?
