Interactive Video Ads Increase Effectiveness?

Late last year, Marketing Sherpa, released an in-depth report geared on the fast-growing landscape of video marketing titled, “Marketing With Video Report: Online, TV & Mobile.” In their research for the report, they asked a sample of marketers using video advertising, either online or on TV, what effect various tactics would have on their video ads. The answer was a resounding, “We Want More Interactivity in Video Ads.”
73% of video marketers agree that adding interactivity to a video ad will increase the effectiveness of the ad. And thank God for that answer. I do wonder about the other 27% who disagree. I mean, how the heck would you get the idea that incorporating greater interactivity might not increase conversions/effectiveness/etc…? Not to say that the question shouldn’t have been asked. Clearly it is important for companies in the video advertising space to understand what is most important to the marketers that are leveraging video advertising.

Mixpo Partners with Major Media Publishers to Bring Online Video Marketing to Local SMBs

As newspapers and media companies continue to struggle with overall revenue declines and as the economy has many small and medium sized businesses watching their advertising budgets much more closely, it is critical that media publishers diversify their interactive product portfolios in such a way that they focus on offering the local SMBs competitive, effective and measurable interactive advertising solutions.
For many media publishers, and newspapers in particular, a large majority of the interactive revenues that are generated are tied to either classified advertising products (which continue to suffer against strong competition like craigslist, autotrader, etc…) and static display banner advertising sales. This is important to mention because there has been a multitude of research published in the last year that points to a coming steep decline in the popularity of online static display banner ads.
