Case for Advertising

New Business Case for Advertising

What does £1.8bn in advertising spend tell us about profitability?

Nic Pietersma from Ebiquity will be sharing the key findings from Profit Ability 2, an econometric analysis of 141 brands, with a total spend of £1.8bn.

The resulting study provides key data to help build the case for advertising investment. It provides clear evidence of the impact of advertising on profit, the varying impact by industry vertical; uncovers three distinct dimensions that impact profitability; and reveals how changes in advertising effectiveness resulting from the changing media landscape have been gradual rather than seismic.
