📢 Challenging the ‘Brand Suitability’ Myth in Advertising A new multi-study report by ThinkNewsBrands debunks the belief that avoiding news media for ad placements protects #brand reputation. The research shows that this “brand suitability” notion actually limits #advertising effectiveness and stunts brand growth. Key findings:  💡 There is no negative impact on a range of performance and brand perception measures from advertising in ‘hard news’.   💡 Advertisers are sacrificing significant ROI and profit growth by avoiding news  💡 Dangers of social media are being ignored by the industry’s brand sustainability actions reserved for news.   💡 Contrary to popular belief, ads placed next to sensitive topics like crime or politics had no negative impact on brand perception. It’s time for #marketers to rethink their #strategies and invest in news media, not shy away from it. ThinkNewsBrands is the marketing body for premium news publishers.
