In its latest interactive call-to-arms, Procter & Gamble last week said it had reaffirmed its commitment to online marketing. But, to bring some order to the chaos of online advertising, the Cincinnati-based packaged goods giant simultaneously announced plans for a summit of major advertisers to consult on the future of Web advertising.
“The Web has the potential to be a dramatically more effective way for us to communicate with the people who buy and use our products,” said Denis Beausejour, P&G vice president of advertising, speaking at the d:tech conference in Chicago.
