Reveal Mobile: How Advertisers Allocate Holiday Ad Spend - 2019 Survey Results

We surveyed 243 SMB advertisers in July 2019 to understand when, how and where they are spending their holiday ad dollars. We conducted a similar study in 2018 as well, so we have the unique ability to compare 2019 ad spending trends to last year.

 

1. During the holidays, my advertising budget (or my clients’ ad budget):

Our research shows that 44% of SMB advertisers are increasing their ad spend for the holidays in 2019. This represents an 18.3% increase over last year. We have a few hypotheses as to why this is:

When the economy is doing well, consumer confidence index goes up. SMBs tend to capitalize on that optimism by spending more on holiday advertising. With the CCI being fairly durable ad spending is up.

The “retail apocalypse” seems to have slowed as well. The National Retail Foundation reports “for every retailer closing stores, five retailers are opening stores”.  With more stores, there is more competition and the need to advertise.

IAS_Human Bots

For those of us in the digital advertising space, bots are a familiar and always evolving, challenge. They can engage in convincingly human-like behavior (clicking on ads, playing videos, performing searches, and on and on), and for that reason are a favorite tool of fraudsters seeking to mislead marketers, publishers, and agencies about the real impact of their ads. IAS offers a range of solutions that help identify these malevolent bots, spotting when online behavior is not that of a human, and helping advertisers avoid the corruption of their metrics by such deception.

But what if the bot is a human? No, we’re not talking about some dystopian, Terminator-like scenario in which the line between human and android becomes blurry. Rather, it’s a case of humans being rewarded for taking bot-like actions — and it’s a fast-growing concern for our industry.

Indonesia is home to the largest Islamic population in the world, with 87.2% of people identifying as Muslims - who observe the holy month of Ramadan as a commemoration of their beliefs.

As consumers buy gifts and presents for family, relatives and friends, there’s a significant uplift in online retail sales during the Ramadan month, and particularly in the last couple of weeks before Eid al-Fitr. Consumer patterns change, demand is at an all-time high and shopping budgets soar across households.

With almost 100 million smartphone users as of 2019 and the country spending more time on mobile than ever before, it is of little surprise that the Indonesian consumer will be increasingly using mobile as the primary device for shopping during the Ramadan season. Mobile is the constant companion during Ramadan, with Indonesians turning to their mobile in this period more than any other part of the year.
