To identify June’s top ad for Attention, we used our Creative Attention Score (CAS), to determine how well creative breaks through. These are the ads that drove the greatest audience engagement - isolated from the effects of media placement. We identified the top ad overall, as well as for men and women.
June's Top Ad - Overall
PetSmart - 'Online Booking. It's That Easy!' (109.4 Creative Attention Score): In this ad PetSmart unveils online booking to make scheduling easier during the pandemic. The ad draws viewer attention to the easy booking process with a loud “what?” from mom.
June's Top Ad - Women
Amazon - 'My Spy - Coming Soon' (111.6 Creative Attention Score): In this ad, Amazon combines a movie trailer and a commercial for their streaming services. Women increase Attention to the ad when the narrator’s voiceover begins and it is maintained as the young girl shows her smarts.
June's Top Ad - Men
Lowe's - 'Summer is Open' (112.4 Creative Attention Score): This ad from Lowes was the one that men paid the most attention to, but it was a well-performing ad with women, too. In fact women paid more attention than men. Men's attention to the ad peaked at the brand mention. .
