Advertising & Branding Industry Overview
by Plunkett Research, Ltd. 2010

For advertisers willing to adapt to today’s rapidly evolving environment, there is good news.

Advertisers are faced with daunting new realities when considering the various media they might use to get their messages across. Traditional media are losing control over their audiences. That means that advertisers can no longer feel secure that their ads on TV, on the radio or in print are going to receive mind share.
Gone are the days when television and radio programmers enjoyed captive audiences who happily sat through ad after ad, or planned their schedules around favorite shows.

Consumers, especially consumers in younger demographics, now demand more and more control over what they watch, read and listen to, and thus more control over the advertising they might be exposed to.

Never in history have there been so many unique opportunities for targeted marketing based on consumers’ tastes, interests, special needs and passions. In fact, asking consumers to respond by going to a specific web site page may finally make advertising truly track able and results-based—long the holy grail of marketers.

The business models upon which most media have traditionally run are becoming obsolete.

Media companies and the advertisers that rely on them are being forced to radically change to deal with new technologies and new demands from consumers.

Rapid changes in viewing habits are already occurring. Network TV news, radio news and newspapers all find that they have to compete fiercely against Internet-based news content.

Globally, more and more households are gaining access to the Internet, creating even more opportunities for online advertising, with an estimated 1.7 billion Internet users worldwide as 2010 began.
