@katemorris
Your great content will be less effective if you don’t
tell people about it.

Real PR is the only “link building” of today.
@katemorris
PR budgets were revised upwards by a net balance of 3.4 per cent of clients – the highest figure over the past three quarters since PR has been specifically broken out in the IPA’s quarterly
report.…
The internet continues to be treated as a priority by clients, with a net 17.4 per cent revising up their budgets.

Our advertising forecast shows that online video for marketing is big business and is only going to get bigger. In Europe, the
CAGR (compound annual growth rate) for total ad spend from 2013 to 2018 is 2.19%, but for online video ad spend, it is a staggering 18.83%. The US shows a similar (albeit smaller)
skew, with total ad spend CAGR of 4.49% and video at 22.39%.

Indeed, on Black Friday, or the day after Thanksgiving, which is considered by many to be the unofficial kick-off to the holiday
shopping season, one in five web purchases were made with a mobile device, according to web measurement firm
comScore Inc. The following Monday, Cyber Monday, 17% of online purchases were made with a tablet or smartphone,
comScore says.
