When you allocate that across the 2.4 billion internet-connected persons on the planet, it means there are 417 web pages and 2,502 display ads for each! It's simply bonkers to think pumping more interruptive ads into the internet is going to work.
Want some more reasons why? Here, lemme tell you:
In 1920, there was 1 radio station. In 2011, there were 14,700.
In 1946, America had 12 broadcasting TV stations. In 2011, there were over 1,700.
In 1998, the average consumer saw or heard 1 million marketing messages – almost 3,000 per day. It’s even more than that now. Just imagine how many Facebook posts or tweets you scroll past every day. Each of those are messages, and now, oftentimes ads.
