  9. Brand-building advertising can drive traffic • Traditional media • 60% of consumers enter addresses of merchants directly into browser. Harris Interactive, 2000

  10. But it does “little” to effect online spending • Only 6% began search online after seeing an ad “offline” such as radio, print, television. • Not bad considering thin market concept. Harris Interactive, 2000 1

  11. On-line advertising drives traffic • Key word banner ads for Kentucky.com at Yahoo.com • Highly trackable by ad, day, hour of day, referring domain, etc.

  12. On-line Advertising drives traffic • On average, across multiple advertisers and campaigns tracked by AdKnowledge over the last 6 months, there are more conversion events from users who only viewed an ad, but did not click, than from users who clicked. • This yields three important conclusions: • 1. The potential ROI impact of Internet advertising is much greater than previously thought, because advertisers only track sales from clicks and tend to ignore the brand impact on sales. • 2. Advertisers who base decisions only on clicks or even post-click conversions may miss important effects of their campaign, including the impact of an impression on the propensity to convert. • 3. As noted in our Q# 1999 Online Advertising Report, Repeat Conversions are also a significant source of returns on an advertising investment.
