These days, a growing number of online brands are utilising TV adverts to market themselves. It seems, spending on TV marketing by such firms has reached Rs.12,143 million in the past five years and this sum is set to grow further as brands wake up to the fact such measures can drive online traffic.

Few days back Google launched its Google Bowl advertisement which gave it a profit of $ 5 million. And as everyone sees frequently, Yahoo also shows so many ads on TV.

So users, what do you think is the reason for online brands embracing TV marketing these days?

TV reaches every corner of the world

idea posted by Meena Deshmukh Product/Brand Manager, Videocon Inds

Online brands see the effect of TV advertising on their business immediately. They see that it works, so they have raised investment. They are voting with their budgets. In my view, the reason for this is, TV reaches in those places where even Internet has not yet reached. TV is there in each and every corner of this world and thereby, more people can see the advertisements than in Internet.

I agree with you Ms.Meena Deshmukh. It is very good Ad appeal to the viewers across the world and it is an instant reach and eye catching.It also helps to know the different types products from different countries. The man in the rural areas as well as in the urban areas will surprise/wonder and also knowing the new, different, unknown products which are not available in their region. It facilitates and enhances immediate reach/knowing about.

Yes, they are going to TV ads because of its wide access. Though for companies like Google, Yahoo or Accenture, Its more about recognition just because their products are not sold in real market. Yet with the help of television they can reach to the masses.

Active Clicks and participation leading to MORE USAGE

idea posted by Makrand Bhave Marketing & MICE, WIZCRAFT International

Its the time for online brands to go VIRAL!! :))

The more people see and get affected by the ads the more they will at least visit the site online. Its their way of going viral now through electronic media. What these sites need is more usage in terms of clicks on the site where they have made all the necessary tools avilable for the audience to be engaged in an activity and make them come back for MORE!!

TV has a mass appeal - may exert peer pressure

idea posted by ASOKE KUSARI Domestic Private Banking-Executive/Manager, A large leading PSU Bank - India

On-line ads, e-mail campaingns etc. is targeted to a "single soul" - whereas TV ads, shown in our living rooms have mass appeals. Being viewed by all, this has a mass apeal. TV viewrs are class-less and may exert peer pressures.

I absolutely support this idea. It is mass appeal rather than a focussed appeal through the press media that would rule in its favour. This despite the cost limitations over the press.

But one needs to see how far it is going to be successful what with the huge number of channels available nowadays. The finger of the consumer is always on the remote.

I would like to see some results shared on too step as to its effectiveness. But there is no denying its reach.

Add your argument:

Every medium plays a specific role

idea posted by Mukul Bhartiya Head-Sales & Marketing(Organic Food Business), Arvind Ltd.

Every medium plays a specific role in brand building. While online marketing is directed towards very specific and information seeking consumers, TV media creates curiosity among mass at large. Moreover, a brand creation will not be complete without point of purchase advertisement and positive print media review.

TV marketing is of higher quality & higher impact: larger audience, brand building & positioning,

idea posted by Arun Raj Idea Engine. Product Development

TV being an older form of media, has a large audience that even includes ppl who use and dont use the internet. Ads on TV have advantages like:

1. VIDEO ADs:

      - very effective. helps in building brand identity, quality assurance, and trust

2. Narrow Channel, Focused Audience:

     -  taken a  geographicsal region, there's a limited number of TV channels... meaning, perfect medium to influence community

idea posted by Manish Chauhan Asst. Manager- eMarketing, Vinove Software & Services

The only reason I feel is that watching videos requires less effort than reading and offers a richer experience.

Online media has not proven its potential

idea posted by Amit Kumar Design Engineer, Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited

Online media has still not been able to break into the common man's home.Moreover ,quite more than often, its reputation has been marred by fake clicks .Another factor is in the vast jungle of every conceivable type of web sites,the ability of the Ad to reach its potential customer is debatable.
