AdMax Pre/Post Program – A customizable solution measuring changes in awareness, consideration, and opinions of a brand. The survey follows a standardized structure, with room for customization to optimize clients’ marketing objectives. The ‘pre’ study runs before the campaign launches, and is followed by a ‘post’ study at the conclusion of the advertising campaign. To assist in interpreting any measured changes, the post survey also asks about recall of the brand’s ads and about the perceived messaging of those ads.
