IS YOUR CREATIVITY PAYING?To learn how better creative generates stronger sales, contact us.

Millward Brown and Kellogg's used Link™ copy testing along with tracking and sales data to isolate the effects of creative on long-term sales.

We found that better creative, as defined with Link measures, grows brand predisposition faster – and this predisposition can predict long-term sales outcomes.

SALES AMPLIFICATIONS

The work helped Kellogg's to:

PROVE the value of brand-building focus in advertising;

ESTABLISH the value of consistent investment in equity-focused advertising;

ENSURE better action standards are set for achieving strong advertising.

For Kellogg's, taking an "average" ad in Link, and making it a "very good" ad increases sales between 30 and 60%.
