MRIA Speaker Series:
Secrets to Making the Most Effective Ads

January 24, 2007
Vancouver, BC

Talk is Cheap. Advertising Isn't.

It is estimated that in the U.S., over 1/3 of the nearly $300 billion spent on advertising each year is wasted. Ipsos ASI knows that 75% of an ad's in-market success has to do with the creative itself. No additional amount of media weight will make the ad more effective. Getting the creative right is imperative.

Join Ipsos ASI's Jacquie Matthews for an engaging presentation highlighting some of the "secrets" that Ipsos ASI has learned by mining their database of over 35,000 ads tested in North America, and drawing on over 30 years of extensive learning about how advertising works to impact brands. The presentation is complete with ad examples, and leaves the audience with some thought provoking ideas to help them "tilt the playing field" in their direction for better advertising results. Both key drivers for effective ads, and those things that limit performance, will be discussed.

The final section will highlight some differences between what makes for effective advertising in Canada vs. the U.S.
