VPP Increases Retail Sales
Industry-First Measurement of Sales & Shopping Sales Incident Data Showcases the Power of Virtual Product Placement Against TV Spots
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, October 31, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- Mirriad , the leader in virtual product placement (VPP), today released groundbreaking research demonstrating the power of VPP to directly drive sales and store visits for one of the largest US advertisers. The campaign drove a 51% increase in average transaction value. These results, as revealed by iSpot data, mark the first time virtual product placement has been measured using pixel tagging methodology aligned to standard TV ad reporting in the industry.
The iSpot data highlighted the campaign's elevated ROI, growth in advertiser transactions, and strengthened connection with the advertiser's target audience:
5:1 ROI
Credit card sales data showed that a large advertiser's six-figure VPP campaign generated an impressive seven-figure return on investment-delivering a 5:1 ROI.
Store Visits and Sales
The innovative ad format drove significant increases in actual sales activity among core adult audiences:
27x increase in shopping incidence within households compared to the TV spot campaign*
16% increase in transactions per household
51% increase in average transaction value, which exceeds prior Kantar studies showing that VPP can boost sales by up to 35%
Stephan Beringer, CEO at Mirriad said,“This research underscores the power of virtual product placement, and the value of this net new video inventory that Mirriad creates. By diversifying video investments with our VPP ad format, advertisers will fuel significant sales growth and achieve higher returns compared to traditional formats. VPP outperforms standalone traditional ad formats dramatically, delivering a winning solution to everyone.”
“At iSpot, we're committed to providing the most accurate and actionable measurement for today's evolving advertising landscape. This study highlights the impressive impact of virtual product placement, proving how this innovative format can significantly elevate transactional outcomes and drive store visits,” said Tom Keaveney, EVP Business Development at iSpot.
Methodology
Household data was gathered through iSpot pixel tags the moment the brand appeared as Virtual Product Placement (VPP) in the content. A follow-up analysis tracked credit card activity over a 14-day window for these exposed households, evaluating the impact of exposure on actual sales. The study compared households exposed to VPP, the advertiser's TV commercial, both the TVC and VPP, as well as households that were not exposed to any advertising of the brand.
