  1. More people than you think do

  2. They can correlate ad buys with sales pretty effectively, so even if you don’t click, if you make a purchase later, they can still see that the ad had an effect.

    The biggest thing for many ads is brand recognition. It helps the early stages of businesses just trying to get their name out there. It also help larger businesses stay relevant vs all the competition.

    Like, I would never use mail chimp but I know mail chimp is a thing because of advertising. If someone asked me I would rkep for them because it was funny for all of 2 seconds.

      Oh absolutely. It’s much harder to put a dollar amount on that, but it’s a substantial effect.
