Top Ads Focus on the Holidays

By Steve Safran 

It’s all about the holiday shopping season suddenly in advertising, as we look at iSpot’s weekly rankings. The company looks at how effective ads are by how many online actions were taken online that were associated with when the ad aired – what it calls the Digital Share of Voice (SOV).

Leading the list is an ad about Temptations Cat Treats, where we see cats wrecking a room decked out for Christmas. Only the sound of – that’s right – Temptations gets them to stop their rampant wave of kitty Christmas destruction.

At number two is Amazon with an ad called “Old Friends,” featuring a priest and an imam. It will actually give you a smile. Here’s the list. Happy Thanksgiving.
