Know-How Exchange : Research/Metrics

Hi Hans,

Yes, my own research for a large online travel site shows that outdoor advertising increases Google queries and display ad clickthrough, ultimately increasing sales within a few days.

发表论文主题是可用的,例如typing in 'outdoor marketing effectiveness' in Google Scholar, I got following interesting articles for respected journals:

1) [PDF] Sales response to outdoor advertising[PDF] from oaaa.orgM Bhargava… - journal of advertising research, 1999 - oaaa.org

2) Outdoor advertising as experimentsAG Woodside - Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, 1990 - jam.sagepub.com

Hans,

There is research on the subject (as Koen points out), but the real answer to your question needs to focus more on the specific product/category, strategic placement of the outdoor advertising, and the effectiveness of the creative message.

Those are the things that will most affect consumer response and sales. Great creative in the right places, hitting the right target audience, will make more difference than anything else.

事实上那t outdoor worked well (or didn't) in a research situation, or for a specific company at a specific point in time, are much less relevant.
