Imagine you having a neighbour you haven’t seen for a while, let’s say two months. You work, they work, you go to sports, they go to their hobby club, you have your own lives.
You haven’t seen or heard from them in a while yet they’re your neighbour: how do you feel about your relationship with them? Just fine? Too thin?
Could it use some attention to enliven the hood?
J-P De Clerck looks at the role of display ads in the inbound marketing and social media era. Please share your thoughts.
Next month, IAB Europe organizes its annual Interact Congress, this time in Barcelona. As you know, the IAB, in Europe at least, is predominantly about interactive advertising (yes, it’s in the name of the organization).
