“Our research shows that if you give users what they want, you'll get better performance,” said Terry Taouss of AAC at Cannes. “Better engagement means better recall. Respect from the user comes through, not just in performance, but in brand equity. It takes a long time to build that brand equity, and you can lose it very quickly with constant annoying ads.” Discover why it's crucial to rethink advertising strategies for improved recall, performance, and brand trust. Read the full article from Campaign US on the insightful panel discussion from Cannes last week with Kaleeta McDade, global chief experience design officer (VML) Terry Taouss, president (AAC) and Jan Wittek, Chief Revenue Officer (eyeo).

Today, we’re proud to announce a new milestone –– the Acceptable Ads Standard now governs the browsing experience of 350 million users worldwide. This marks a 40% increase in users in the past 2 years. This increase highlights growing user preference for engaging ad formats that enhance the browsing experience, but still support the needs of industry stakeholders like publishers and advertisers. “Prioritizing the needs of users has, and will continue to be, essential. Intrusive advertisements alienate users, and this ultimately affects both publishers and advertisers. The growth of the Acceptable Ads Standards is proof that users are not necessarily opposed to advertising, but rather they are opposed to the types of ads that do not respect their choices. The Standard offers clear research-backed guidance for industry stakeholders that aligns with user preferences and sets an example for creating engaging digital experiences." - Terry Taouss, President of the AAC.
