605 Launches The Impact Index
605, an advanced data and analytics company focused on the media and
entertainment industries, today announced that it has launched The
605 Impact Index™, a new, scientifically-based approach for
measuring the impact of TV advertising on both branding and sales, also
known as the 'top and bottom of the marketing funnel.' Building on its
pioneering TV analytics work with blue-chip clients like Walmart and
Uber, 605 developed the Impact Index as a more complete measure
of the business impact of TV advertising which will deliver clients
actionable insights to optimize both brand marketing and sales outcomes
from their TV advertising investments.
"It's no secret that the legacy TV measurement system has not kept pace
with modern day marketing demands," said Ben Tatta, Co-Founder and
President of 605. "Although recent developments in the field of TV
attribution are a move in the right direction, most of these solutions
focus on sales attribution only. These 'bottom-funnel' methods fail to
capture the enormous impact TV delivers in terms of brand awareness,
perception and favorability. After years of conducting full-funnel
attribution, 605 developed the Impact Index as a turn-key
solution for measuring the total impact of TV advertising in a
scientific, yet easy-to-implement way."
Unlike attribution models derived from sample data, the Impact Index
leverages one of the industry's largest matchable TV datasets combined
with custom, first-party research, to benchmark qualitative brand
metrics such as brand awareness and favorability. The result is a new,
expansive set of metrics designed to measure TV attribution, from the
top to the bottom of the marketing funnel. These metrics are organized
into two distinct categories based on campaign objectives, including:
-
Brand Impact Metrics, which are designed to measure the 'upper' and
'mid-funnel' impact including brand awareness, brand perception, brand
favorability, and net promoter score (NPS)
-
Sales Impact Metrics, which are designed to measure the 'bottom
funnel' impact including ad engagement, ad response, sales conversion
and conversion lift
Commenting on 605's approach to data, research and insights, Aaron
Bernstein, Senior Director of Insights and Advocacy at Walmart said,
"Over the past few years, 605 and Walmart Corporate Affairs have worked
together to identify the relationship between television, brand
reputation and consumer purchasing behavior, which has yielded
tremendous results."
"While we all still call it TV, what those two letters mean for
data-savvy advertisers has greatly evolved in just the past few
quarters," said Sean Cunningham, President and CEO of the Video
Advertising Bureau (VAB). "What hasn't changed is consumers spending the
vast majority of their viewing time with premium TV video content. TV
continues to deliver real impact against all audiences in scale, just as
more advanced TV data insights for advertisers are rapidly rising."
To demonstrate how the Impact Index works, 605 is releasing
findings from its Brand Impact Study that uncovers unique
insights on brand favorability for leading television advertisers across
auto, telecom, insurance, quick-service restaurants, pharma and
cosmetics. Key findigs include:
-
GEICO: Well-known for its ads featuring the bright green Gecko
with the English accent and other humorous spots, two of its top three
indexing prime time shows are niche programs that appear on PBS.
What
it means: In addition to GEICO's mass audience reach on
TV, it achieves high brand favorability ratings among
specialized, hard to reach audiences such as those on PBS. Supporting
evidence: 605's study found that GEICO's highest favorables in
prime time included "Great Performances" on PBS, "All in with Chris
Hayes" on MSNBC and "Finding Your Roots" on PBS.
-
NISSAN: Those favorable to the Nissan brand tend to watch a lot
of Spanish-language television which reflects the company's strategic
investment in a targeted audience market with growing economic power.
What
it means: Nissan's unique approach and continued
investment in reaching Hispanic audiences is paying off. The company
is using creative advertising, planning and strategic partnerships to
help drive brand awareness that supports sales outcomes. Supporting
evidence: Nissan maintains a multi-year strategic partnership
with Univision which has enabled the company to capitalize on
award-winning creative ads focused on the Hispanic community from
Omnicom's (News - Alert) multicultural agency, fluent360 and its media planning
agency OMD. In fact, Nissan won the Spanish Advertiser of the Year
Award for its "First Impression" ad that promoted the Nissan Rogue.
Hispanic customers now comprise 21 percent of Nissan's annual sales.1
-
SAMSUNG: Those favorable to the Samsung (News - Alert) brand watch more
youth-oriented programming on networks including Comedy Central,
Freeform and MTV.
What it means:
Samsung has garnered a unique affinity among younger, hard-to-reach
audiences on TV, which will lead to loyal followers of their products
over time. Supporting evidence:
Samsung invests heavily with Viacom (News - Alert) and youth-oriented programming
which is clearly driving favorability to the brand with key audiences.
-
AT&T: The audiences most favorable to AT&T (News - Alert) over index on
Viacom's TVLand network, but it is the only Viacom-owned network that
has no AT&T advertising.
What
it means: Based on these findings, AT&T's investment across
Viacom's networks could drive its favorable even higher if it targeted
some of its advertising on TVLand. Supporting
evidence: AT&T has been a significant advertiser across all of
Viacom's networks with the exception of TVLand.
