Recommendations

Actionable guidance to optimise media choices and enhance creative effectiveness based on your results.

Media recommendations

If creative cannot be changed, which media choices maximise attention?
Recommended format
Snapchat
commercial

With 4.41 seconds of Active Attention, Snapchat commercial delivers the strongest potential for a category leader to drive brand-building goals. More than 74% of the ad is actively viewed, ensuring the message is absorbed before users scroll, skip, or disengage.

Complementary format
TikTok
in-feed

A well-suited supporting platform to extend engagement and reach is Tiktok in-feed. With 1.84 seconds of active attention and 0.06 seconds of passive attention, it reinforces awareness effectively.

Reconsider format
Pinterest
standard video

With just 0.3 seconds of Active Attention, this format is ineffective for brand awareness, regardless of brand size. Reconsider formats offering less than 2.5 seconds of Active Attention, as they fail to sustain audience engagement before viewer drop-off.

Creative recommendations

If you can't influence the media, but can influence the creative.
Branding
Ineffective

Branding appearing after 4 sec significantly reduces impact in awareness campaigns. By this time, only 72.1% of viewers will still be engaged—urgent changes needed to maintain visibility.

Ad length and format
Ineffective

These formats aren't ideal for 10-second ads, as users disengage quickly on scrollable channels. Switch to high-retention formats.
