Impact of Advertising Channels on Brand Valuation
Different advertising channels play varying roles in driving brand recognition and valuation, particularly during mergers and acquisitions. The study highlighted that traditional media and online display advertising significantly contributed to brands being recognized as standalone assets, leading to higher financial valuations. In contrast, paid search, known for its targeted approach, tends to drive immediate sales but lacks the long-term brand equity building that traditional and display channels offer. This underscores the importance of investing in diverse advertising methods to create lasting brand value that withstands scrutiny in high-stakes scenarios like acquisitions.
