2017 Survey Results

Our 2017 survey of local advertisers was Launched April 3 and completed in July, yielding some fantastic insights. Our annual survey is the largest of its kind in North America. Most SMB surveys encompass a few hundred to perhaps 1,000 advertisers, or contain only a handful of questions. Ours reaches more than 7,500 advertisers who answer all 40+ questions, yielding unique insights about current and future marketing plans. Check out the 2017 insights from the Chart of the Week series (below), or learn how to get these insights for your market in our next wave of surveys by emailing us at info@borrellassociates.com.

2017 Insights From Our Local Advertiser Survey

[sc_textbox content_background_color=”#a9d8d7″]

What’s Asked?

This year’s survey asks 44 questions. In addition to the base questions about gross revenue, number of employees, and business type, we ask about advertising expenditures on each of 13 different types of media (digital, mobile, newspapers, cable, direct mail, etc.), and what they’re planning to increase or decrease. We also ask detailed questions about digital media expenditures, including spending habits on digital services, social media, SEM, mobile, and banner advertising.

Can My Market Participate?

The survey is open to any company with a customer list of 100 or more locally-based businesses in the U.S. or Canada that purchase advertising and marketing services. Typical participants are local media companies (radio, TV, newspapers, cable, direct mail, yellow pages, and Internet pureplays), as well as ad agencies and national companies with local businesses as their customers.

What Are The Logistics?

The survey is turnkey to participants. All that’s required of the participant is emailing a link to its customer list to solicit participation in the survey. Borrell provides a customized link for each participant (or each market). Participants are asked to one initial email solicitation and two follow-up reminders to ensure high participation. Completion is typically within 30 days of initial solicitation. Borrell monitors survey progress and communicates with participants along the way, and compiles responses and analysis within two weeks of survey close.
