Members MarkH Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 No. Viewers reported seeing commercials on E!. So, I think the television promos went further than CBS daytime. Did they do any print promotion this time? I know they did for OOTA...but I didn't see any print this time. If SON _was_ the exclusive genesis on online promos, then YOU DO deserve credit Toups. This is worth investigating, because it could have REAL implications for your ad value. ETA: I am very surprised that promos worked. PROMOS NEVER WORK any more. Therefore, I am of the opinion that something different--e.g., viral marketing originating with SON--made the different. And since I am so shocked, I think this is REALLY worthy of investigation.

Members Soapsuds Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Well if this is true...you need to promote ATWT more....LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted July 31, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted July 31, 2008 Prior to our change over to YouTube towards the actual airing of Sudden Impact, the videos shown on the SON server were viewed 29,555 times collectively. We changed over to YouTube promos and ceased posting on the website server on Thursday, July 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted July 31, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'll give you that...but they didn't do my countdown like Toups said, lol. That was a pain in the ass to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Youtube should give you hit data, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 31, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted July 31, 2008 LOL Thanks for backing up SON but I highly doubt we had some impact (no pun intended) in the ratings. And SON having a bigger effect than E!? Come on. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted July 31, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted July 31, 2008 YouTube hits weren't really all that. Okay, but considering we just started using it for this purpose, I didn't expect much out of it. Maybe in the long-term though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'm glad B&B went up. they been doing good especially with lest Katie, Bridget, & Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Do people actually watch E!? Was there actually an E! commercial, or is that just hearsay? Well, let's just say the data analyst in me is ITCHING to know some hard 'hit' numbers and to do the experiment. The vicarious entrepreneurial spirit in me wishes, for you, to aggressively claim the Sudden Impact victory as yours, and to use it for your success. Errol, you obviously have some contact with marketing at CBS (for your countdown). So, I hope you're conversing about this :-). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted July 31, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'll give you that, but how much of the people that saw the promos on E! actually tuned in because of the promo airing there? Let CBS spin that, lol...wait they don't spin anything! lmao Thank you Mark, lol. I'm actually working on some stuff in that area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webmaster Errol Posted July 31, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'll say this, if GH/ATWT go up for next weeks ratings...I'd like credit, Now if they go down...we didn't promote them THAT much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapfan1 Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 i don't get it those rating days got +200 in total viewers and there still 1.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 It's not rocket science, DAYS rose in viewers, but households stayed the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted July 31, 2008 Webmaster Share Posted July 31, 2008 Think of it this way, collectively more people tuned into Days of our Lives last week, but the amount of households tuning in did not change. Simply put, more people stayed home (or recorded the show and watched later) to watch DAYS with a group of people than they did the week prior.
