We live in a society that has an abundance of digital advertisements, but as consumers, what do we prefer?
One thing for certain, is that printed advertising material is not dead. Research has shown that physical printed ads are more effective than digital advertisements. Data shows that we take our time and review over printed ads longer. Statistics also show that consumers have a 70% higher percentage of memory retention and recall compared to digital advertisements.
It seems that printed ads are easier for our brains to process and trust compared to digital advertisements. When it comes down to making a purchasing decision, consumers trust printed ads more than they do search engine ads. This isn’t a surprise, considering that there are countless amounts of scams and cyber criminals around the internet.
Promoting business, while decreasing advertisement expenses is definitely possible. Businesses don’t have to outsource any of their printing jobs. Making printed advertisements such as posters, signage, banners, and other materials, can all be done in house.
