    E-commerce is in need of a deeper strategy with social

    (Source: The DRUM) Until recently, shopping on social media typically meant being redirected to a traditional e-commerce website. Online shopping is big business, and stronger integration with social could further propel success. It is not hard to love online shopping: it’s quick, convenient and infinitely more peaceful than braving a crowded mall. Indeed, online shoppers worldwide spent US$15trn in 2017, and that figure is set to grow further in 2018, according to the Hootsu

    Are Taglines still relevant? Heineken says No

    (Source: AdAge) Taglines have been a hallmark of beer advertising for decades. Some of the classic ones, like "Great Taste, Less Filling," "This Bud's For You" and "Head for the Mountains of Busch," endure even when they aren't actively used in ads. But Heineken USA with its newest campaign is putting an end to the practice of concocting a pithy phrase to sell suds, believing that the practice has gone staler than last week's beer.

    Facebook廣告效果好差!怪罪演算法前,這些素材設計眉角掌握了嗎?

    (Source: 數位時代) 有些基本功沒做好,就不能一味怪罪Facebook演算法了。 Facebook平均每一到三個月就改一次演算法,觸及率近來更是不忍卒睹,但為什麼有的粉絲團還是活得好好、你下的廣告卻往往石沉大海? 當社群紅利時代過去,該做的其實是回到基本功。在Facebook上,用戶對有興趣的內容平均只給3~5秒的注意力,能不能在這3秒內吸引用戶,就成了社群經營的蹲馬步。 只要有人社群顧問創意總監洪資皓(Ryan Hong),今(6/6)日在Facebook精準行銷術的課堂上分享社群素材設計的各種眉角! 社群素材設計3大誤區 紙本素材轉檔直貼 用戶看不懂的,就不會看了! 很多人習慣將海報、雜誌等紙本內容直接轉檔放上網路,通常會產生文字過小、排版錯誤、閱讀困難等問題,尤其解析度不夠,還會讓文字產生毛邊等,太細、太小的字在數位螢幕上都會造成閱讀的不舒適。 要在極短時間抓住讀者注意力,就要適時裁減內容,例如雜誌內容轉成社群圖片,只要抓出一個可以吸引讀者的畫面輔以標題就可以了。此外,還要針對不同螢幕去調整設計,重新排版、調整文字比例等。 重點太多

    The future of television advertising is up in the air, on the air and also on mobile

    (Source: The DRUM) There is no doubt that television has seen disruption over the last few years. Second screen viewing is growing, and traditional cable and network TV are getting squeezed by paid streaming services. This has altered the way television advertising is being approached, both by viewers creative agencies. Many have already called the 30-second spot dead, and the younger generations don’t even think about traditional TV ads versus digital. But new forms of ads —

    InMobi發佈《2018中國移動APP程序化視頻廣告白皮書》 聚焦高效投放

    (文章轉載:tech.china.com) 近日,全球最大的獨立移動廣告平台InMobi發佈了《2018中國移動APP程序化視頻廣告白皮書》,對移動APP程序化視頻廣告在中國的現狀及發展趨勢作了詳盡解讀,並對於如何做好程序化視頻廣告,使廣告主實現高效的投放,提出了關鍵的洞察。 眾所周知,移動屏幕已經是當下的主流。據數據顯示,僅僅在5年前,中國成年人花費在桌面端的數字媒體時間還是移動端的2倍,而現在,情況已經反轉,他們花費在移動端的時間更多了。到2017年,中國成年人平均每天花費在智能手機上的時間已達到1小時38分鐘。據eMarketer預測,到2019年,中國成年人平均每天花費在智能手機上的時間將達到2小時9分鐘,僅僅比平均花費在電視上的時間少25分鐘。在中國,傳統媒體近幾年整體上已漸漸失去了消費者的關注,電視在數字媒體的衝擊下,將繼續面臨用戶使用時間的流失。 這種轉變對於移動視頻廣告的發展來說,起到了極大的促進作用。程序化廣告購買者也能通過擁抱專為移動設備和移動用戶習慣而打造的視頻廣告,達到優異的投放效果。移動視頻廣告程序化已然成為了一種趨勢。

Research regularly pops up which more often than not unearths cases of fraud, bots and misleading reporting, with the latest results putting display viewability rates at just under 50%. However, many of these studies combine desktop and mobile ad viewability under one umbrella, meaning that opportunities are being missed by brands and publishers to take advantage of the different behaviours
