Idea from Ralf Maeder (client partner for Kantar Germany):
Can you imagine to incorporate aspects like celebs, e.g. by plugging in the name of the celeb at the beginning, with the machine searching the Internet to estimate attitude towards the celeb - as the most important determinant of celeb effectiveness in ads?
Context is we tested a bunch of ads in prep for the meeting with Allianz, mostly featuring celebrities (e.g. Usain Bolt) or popular characters from Disney movies (e.g. Up, Finding Nemo, Ratatouille, Monsters Inc). Link AI results on measures like Branding were comparable to the Link tests. But AI result on measures like Enjoyment, Persuasion and STSL tended to be a lot lower, likely because of the star power of these partnerships on consumers in Link which is not being factored in by the machine.
Is there any way for the machine to incorporate the celebrity or popularity factor when they are intentionally used in ads through investment in licensing rights? Perhaps there's a publicly available dataset that is maintained online, and where things like celebrities are given a score based on popularity.
