There are already 19 million multi-screen consumers in Europe, a figure that has doubled in the last year and includes some of Europe’s most valuable and influential consumers*. By extending ads to PC, mobile and TV screens, multi-screen advertising is now an essential strategy for improving reach, frequency and effectiveness among this group.

 

Microsoft Advertising is uniquely positioned to transform digital campaigns into multi-screen advertising solutions:

 

 

Developing multi-screen ad solutions can be as simple as ensuring you add new multi-screen elements to existing campaigns, such as:

  • Adding video ads on MSN to a TV campaign
  • Extending an MSN Homepage takeover to MSN Mobile
  • Adding in-game advertising to online display
  • Driving traffic to a Facebook brand page from Xbox LIVE.

 

Recent multi-screen research proves the increased effectiveness of multi-screen advertising solutions through a ‘Media Multiplier’ effect that improves recall, favourability and response when consumers are exposed to ads on multiple platforms: Kia achieved a 163% lift in brand rating by adding Xbox LIVE and in-game advertising to an online display campaign; Nationwide achieved a 64% increase in awareness by adding online display ads to its mobile campaign**.
