Advertising consumes huge budget and yet it is often does not have tangible ROI. It focus most times is not to generate sales. So why invest inĀ it or not? Like marketing, brand advertising is to create awareness, expose differentiation and to help consideration for the service/products.

If things are done properly, the intangible will manifest in:

1. Exploiting lifetime relationships, values of a customers

2. Turning customer to loyalists.

3. Make customers advocates

But come to think of this, if customers know which half is wasted, what will be the lots of advert agencies? Giving the economic crunch, will you still invest in advertisement or conversation marketing? Which one is important to you as a brand or as a corporate brand? What will you advice your clients to do?
