Super Bowl 2023

Super Bowl ads are about getting press, celebrity, being part of the conversation, tapping into social media engagement, highlighting corporate values... and so many other things. But do they actually work? Do they make people like your brand better and want to buy from you?

The answer is yes. We have found that a Super Bowl ad is typically more than 20 times as effective as a typical TV ad when it comes to driving brand perceptions. Further, we found that 'Strong’ Super Bowl ads receive three times the ROI of ‘Average’ Super Bowl ads and drive 40% higher ad recall. In our latest research, we explore the secrets behind the best Super Bowl ads of all time, what consumers are looking for from brands, how ads during the 2023 game performed, and more!
