Study: Bad Ads Lead to Bad Sex (And Why Brands Should Care)
Americans are fed up with the pervasive, persistent presence of bad advertising in their daily lives, and are sick of the constant interruptions to their web surfing, online shopping, and…um…their sex lives?
InsightsOne, a company dedicated to predictive intelligence solutions enabled by big data, recently announced the findings of its 2013 Bad Ads Survey conducted online by Harris Interactive. The study found that 83% of respondents felt bad ads actually get in the way of their daily activities:
- Web surfing – 51%
- Online shopping – 37%
- Working – 20%
- Having Sex – 19%
- Sleeping – 13%
