Why Are Commercials Still So Effective?

 

Commercials are effective because they are short.

The average commercial is 30 seconds.  Some are longer at 60 seconds but a growing trend is the 15 second and 5 second commercial.  So how can you connect with your audience in 5 seconds??  Music. Specifically a slightly annoying song with a phrase or slogan associated with the company name.  They call them JINGLES!  If you find yourself humming that annoying tune later in the day then you have felt the power of Jingle Commercials.  We have been producing these types of spots for more than a decade in the Washington DC area.  Our Media & Ad Buying Team work with Creatives to come up with effective commercials to get the phone to ring.  Just remember, it takes time to build up that annoying presence on TV.
