TV ad campaigns fail to reach audiences

Nationwide US television advertising campaigns are failing to reach a large portion of their target audiences, according to new research based on TV viewing data.

Wenda Millard, president at consultancy MediaLink, which works with advertising companies and marketers said: “TV advertising always has been spray and pray. Because we couldn’t do anything about it, we used to laugh.

“Now that joke is long over. It’s not funny to waste billions and billions of dollars.”
