NEW YORK — George Hammer has hit on the recipe for online video ad effectiveness: it’s all about empowering preroll-weary viewers.<\/p>\n

“We at Publicis’ looked at about 50 different types of online video formats and 100 different executions,” said the VP<\/a> and media group director of Publicis’ Digtias agency.<\/p>\n

“What we found was, when we give consumers choice of which video they want to see or how they engage with the video, it performs the best – 2x better than preroll in certain stats.<\/p>\n

“People want choice on how to choose their own adventure. Midroll has the best completion rates – you’re more likely to keep watching.”<\/p>\n
