In this day and age, TV ads are no longer just “TV ads.” Their success is now also based on how engaging they are across social platforms. Here are this week’s top 10 most-talked-about TV ads on social (before the new Super Bowl ads came and smashed everything…)
Which advertiser is really getting the most bang for their buck on TV? Yes, TV views matter, but what happens on social media, counts even more nowadays. Consider this:
- 64% of people are active on social media during a TV show
- TV ads drive 1 in 5 social media brand engagements
- More than 8 billion videos are viewed on Snapchat and Facebook alone
Is there a future for TV advertising? Of course, YES. But each TV spot will have to take into account its social media potential. As you will see from the top 10 below, the amount of media spend does not always link to how successful a spot gets to be on social!
This week, GEICO says on top, Truth ranks at #2 with its anti-tobacco campaign (❤️) and Google takes the podium with its new Pixel 2 TV spot.
