Media Deliver Consumer Response

When it comes to driving customers into a store, every media works differently, with magazines more effective than newspapers or radio in terms of driving retail purchasing, even though more than a quarter of people have gone to a store after seeing it advertised in a newspaper. Two thirds of adult Australians have explicitly responded to some kind of TV advertising, and most people have responded to newspaper and magazine ads. Internet ads are still only effective amongst a quarter of the total population. These findings come from the most recent round of Ingenuity's ongoing research programme, Australians Today Consumer Insights.
