IAB Turkey’s Chairman Dr. Mahmut Kurşun said “IAB Turkey’s Multiplier Effect of Digital Advertising Report prepared in cooperation with IPSOS Turkey and Bosphorus University Administrative Sciences Faculty, states that every TRY 1 invested to digital advertising increases national income by TRY 17.2. Keeping in mind this fact, double-digit growth means a lot to the advertising industry and the economy.

Until now Digital was accepted as fueling the advertising industry in general, from now on a more important concept will be in our agenda: Direct Brand Economy.  Direct Brand Economy was first explained in the opening speech of IAB Annual Leadership meeting as being a huge change or rather a revolution.   

Direct Brand Economy has an infinite number of stores and shelves, infinite production capacity and all goods are delivered to the door for 7/24. In this economy small businesses, start-ups can compete with giants. Cloud technology, data, and insight are more important than investment capital. And digital advertising being at the heart of Direct Brand Economy takes the lead of this groundbreaking change.

Direct Brands of Direct Economy have lots to do. As IAB Turkey, we’ll be working to contribute the success of the brands where fluency of Internet is a must.”
