The Effects of Online advertisung



     Investigates the effects of online advertising on human behavior: clicks, new-account sign-ups, and retail sales. Five chapters cover natural and field experiments used to measure these effects for both display and search advertising. The first uses a natural experiment on the Yahoo! Front Page, aided by a flexible semi-users model, to identify the causal effects of display ad frequency on internet users' responses as measured at the individual level by clicks and new-account sign-ups.
       Performance is heterogeneous regarding frequency and click ability; some campaigns exhibit significant decreasing returns to scale after one or two impressions while others show constant returns to scale even after fifty impressions. For some campaigns, a simple  regression which ignores selection bias finds increasing returns to scale, but none is found with the model that uses exogenous variation in views.
       Conversely, many campaigns that appear to exhibit diminishing returns when failing to account for selection, in fact, show little to no wear-out. A controlled experiment on  existing customers measures the causal effect of advertising on actual purchases, overcoming the major hurdles regarding attribution typically encountered in advertising effectiveness research by exogenous varying exposure to the ads.
      Each customer was randomly assigned to treatment and control groups for an online advertising campaign for this retailer. Online brand advertising generated a statistically and economically significant effect on in-store sales for this retailer. The design of the experiment permits a demographic breakdown of the advertising's heterogeneous effects. Somewhat surprisingly, the effects are especially large for the elderly. Several possible explanations are proposed for this phenomenon, and directions for new theoretical models of sponsored search are suggested.

The Disadvantages of alcohol & sport advertising



      Sponsorship, in most cases, is not meant to be; it is a mutually beneficial business arrangement. In the competitive sponsorship environment of sport, a company wishing to advert their brand with a sport does so to gain a host of economic, public relations and product placement advantages. Sponsors also hope to announce their association with an athlete, team, league, or the sport itself to gain public trust, acceptance, or aware with the perceived image a sport has created or acquired.In return, sports receive financial benefit for their association with a company, product or campaign. There are usually additional non-financial advantages to be gained as a consequence of a sports association with a sponsor.





      Advertising may be linked to sponsorship, or act as a stand-alone investment strategy by a company or organization. In contrast, a company may choose not to sponsor a sport or team, but purchase parallel advertising at a sports venue or during broadcasting of those sports events. Thus, the association between a company or product and a sport or event may not always be under the control of the sport or team because venue or broadcast advertising may not be the same as the sponsorship of the athletes or teams competing.
        When sponsorship and advertising are linked by a single corporate message, the net exposure of the company or product is optimal. Sponsorship and advertising of sports has become a high-stakes business and decisions made by both parties are carefully constructed and critically analyzed. The company wants to associate their brand or product with all the 'feel good' aspects of sport, particularly a successful sporting team or athlete. In turn, the sport wants the financial benefits of sponsorship and advertising as well as the association with a 'successful' company or a well known product.
       The ethics of a sport’s decision to enter into a sponsorship agreement reflects the sporting organization’s values. However, ethical decisions may conflict with a sport’s need for financial gain. The question may arise, "When does a sports association with a company or product diminish the sport’s image?" The evidence of the health risks, both short-term and long-term, associated with significant levels of alcohol consumption is substantial. The evidence base underpinning the social and economic impact of alcohol use provides a compelling argument for rejecting the association between ‘sport’ and ‘alcohol’.
     Strong anti-sponsorship and advertising arguments are based upon the available world-wide evidence that children and adolescents exposed to alcohol marketing (even if this is indirect) are affected in terms of their attitudes and behavior toward alcohol products. Sport attracts the attention of children and youth like no other sector; in fact governments actively promote the involvement of children and youth in sports.

Advertisements aren't inherently bad


        Advertisements aren't inherently bad, but many use manipulative tactics that influence in ways we don't even realize. Despite how much you think you ignore them, and how little you may believe they affect you, that's not necessarily the case. Here's a look at how manipulative ads work, the problems they cause, and what you can do to avoid these negative consequences.You see ads every day, whether it's on a web page, before a movie, or in the middle of a TV show, and it's easy to say "they're just ads" because, at worst, they feel like a nuisance or interruption. A lot of people have difficulty accepting the idea that ads are manipulative because we want to believe we're in complete control of our choices.

      While the concept of advertising isn't inherently problematic, we've moved on from the "Eat at Joe's" sign to far more complex and sometimes even moving, cinematic messages that are designed to create significant memories of a product. These memories are created because an ad succeeds at making us feel something—whether it's good or bad—and that emotional response can have a profound effect on how we think and the choices we make.
     
Not all advertising is bad, but we're going to take a look at what's problematic, what isn't, and ways you can avoid the negative effects associated with so much of what you passively experience. Advertising exists because there's a product a company wants to sell and they want people to know about it so they can buy it. This much is obvious. Sometimes that product is a cleaning spray or a microwave oven, but often it's yet another article of clothing, a gadget, another meal out, or something else you don't necessarily need. These advertisements aren't for the average person with a small amount of spending cash, but rather they're for the rich.

Advertisement

Rich people don't make up a large portion of any population, but they're the ones with money to spend. They can see an ad, decide they want a product, go buy it, and it has very little effect on their wallet. The problem is that we all see the same advertising but can't necessarily afford the purchases. We all want the lifestyle of the rich, as we see it depicted in television, film, and commercials.

The Role of Advertising in Media



       In the recent 21st century, media such as television, print and radio attract the public by improving knowledge and awareness of the product and service companies. Although costly, such avenues are the preferred mode of advertising .companies relies on media to market their products and increase sales, as the media plays a significant role in advertising.
    An advertisement could alert you about new products that come in to the market.it contain information about what the product is, what it does and why you should buy it.it brings to your attention where the product can be bought, how much it cost or who may use it; in terms of age and the lethal effects if used improperly.
   Advertising popularizes brand. The media popularizes the brand by constant replay and in print media, through repetitive publication. Thus the target customer remembers the brand and buys the product.
    The form of media is print or broadcast, the target audience is large. Where the advertisement persuades and convinces the public about the goods offered or service rendered, more people will be inclined to purchases or go for the said service. The product already in   the market get exhausted and the service crowded.
