According to the president of CBS’ research unit, the Internet enhances TV advertising. David Poltrack points out that while the Internet is an efficient medium for turning consumers into purchasers, it’s useful only if the consumers are already aware of the products. Simply put, consumers turn to the Internet to learn about products that they are already aware of.
That is where television advertising plays a key role. It is Poltrack’s opinion that, as a medium, TV is still unrivalled when it comes to developing awareness of a product, service or product feature. To leverage this connection between television-based awareness and internet-based information gathering, marketers need to coordinate the TV and Internet components of their ad campaigns.
