Direct response ads win at Christmas

1st December 2016

DIRECT Response advertising is something that is forever effective at eliciting sales from consumers especially around celebrations such as Christmas.

Emotive advertising when delivered in the correct context is correctly seen as the greatest brand affirming mechanism, for the purpose of temporal success though, direct response when seizing upon popular events will deliver results.

Space City has released the forthcoming Christmas campaign for Snapajack, a company offering products which embody the cultural significance of the time posted: greetings gifts.

Having products that encompass these values entirely can lead to inviting direct response ideas: from focusing on the emotion of the occasion, to the expectation that spending needs to occur during this period.

Direct response will only work with contextually appropriate products.

If your brand is associated with such positive connotations of the season it is broadcast, your product will resonate with consumers contextually, forming a lasting rapport yet with the instant results delivery of direct response.
