Real-time data from Super Bowl auto industry commercials exposes insights that highlight opportunities for campaign optimization
NEW YORK, March 06, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research by Barometric, MRC-Accredited provider of the industry’s most advanced cross-environment tracking and measurement solution, today revealed a collection of real-time insights about automotive companies that ran ads during this year’s Super Bowl LII. Using its innovative cross-environment device graph, Barometric integrated with Mobiquity Networks and DataPulse in order to track and compare dealership and website visitation patterns, for auto companies that aired Super Bowl ads, and those that did not.
Barometric measured nine different automotive brands, five aired ads during the Super Bowl and four did not. The measurement took place the week leading up to the game through the week after the game (January 28th to February 12th). Key insights resulting from the tracking include:
Monday (1/28) versus Monday (2/5)
- After analyzing data on the Monday before and the Monday directly after the Super Bowl, advertisers that ran a TV ad saw a significant bump (net total +41.81%) in immediate website traffic
- Two of the five automotive companies that ran commercials during the Super Bowl saw an overall increase in website traffic by as much as 22% and 25%, while those that did not air commercials had little to negative change to website traffic
- Two out of five of the ads tracked focused on a “social cause” message. Of those two ads, one company stood out with a 26.54% increase in website and dealership visits
- Interestingly, the automotive companies that did not air TV ads saw a greater increase in dealership visits vs. those that did air TV ads
Week before versus week after
- Comparing the week prior to the Super Bowl to the week after, the auto companies that aired TV ads saw a decrease in dealership visits (net total -15.75%)
- Whether they aired a commercial or not, almost every single auto manufacturer had more dealership visits and website traffic the week leading up to the Super Bowl than the week after
“Having the ability to measure this type of data is vital because it provides insights that help clients leverage the awareness they’ve created and track their converting customers, allowing advertisers to best capitalize on their ad spend,” said Anthony Iacovone, President and CEO of Barometric. “It’s critical to have a platform that delivers unified measurement and truly analyzes the effectiveness of their media, and Barometric empowers brands to view real-time insights right in the platform, allowing advertisers to shift strategy when and if needed.”
Whereas other services take months to turnaround recap reports with this type of data, Barometric delivers this raw data in real time with digestible insights available for download from its UI within days. “We give the agency or end-client the entire package of data, whether they want to see lift reports or specific data on a one-to-one scale,” continued Iacovone. “We can do both – we’ve responded to the market because we’ve found that’s what clients want and need.”
