26 TV Adverts Pushing You Online & Social

15th January 2014

Christmas is a time for food, drink and a whole lot of watching TV. I couldn’t help notice this year how many TV adverts contained links persuading you to download apps, website addresses pushing you online, mentions of social media hash tags to discuss and  the prominence of mobile alongside online and in store throughout the advertisments.

This just goes to show the importance big brands are putting on online advertising, smart device use and the power of social media.
