The results make me question whether how feminism is portrayed in advertising might actually be widening the gender gap, rather than closing it. by Rio Cook- Global Neuroscience Innovations Manager / Kantar
The research revealed the human brain needs 400 milliseconds (or 4/10th of a second or less than ½ second), to engage with mobile advertising and trigger an imprint, positive or negative. This means consumer time and attention can´t be taken for granted. Essentially, by the time a consumer blinks, their brain has already seen and processed a mobile ad. And more so, by the time it takes for their heart to beat once, they have very likely formed an emotional response (under 7/10ths of a second).

When implementing advanced attribution models to better assign marketing credit across touchpoints, marketers grapple with choosing the best metrics among overabundant data points. To avoid getting overwhelmed by a sea of clickthrough rates (CTRs), impressions, likes, shares and viewthrough rates, marketers are performing metrics mapping exercises to assess the relevancy of these channel-level metrics against a larger company goal.
A couple of weeks ago, I posted about Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) brands and suggested that in order to scale they would eventually have to reach out beyond their social media audience to bring in new customers.
