INSY 440: Post 7: The end or a new beginning for Facebook? Facebook Video Ads?


Facebook, yesterday, unleashed a secret weapon! That is to say, it introduced a new advertising method, known as the 15 seconds Facebook Video Ad.

Some key characteristics:
It will run for only 15 seconds!
It will bother your news feed for only a maximum of three times a day!
It will have a daily (happy or not happy) audience equivalent to the super bowl, according to some ‘FB Analysts!’

In fact, one would challenge the viability and longevity of such ad methods, especially on a platform where people are already double annoyed and despise ads more than ever.

Has FB committed a major error by introducing a product that competes with the “super bowl?”

Regardless, one thing seems sure, FB will have to overcome very challenging obstacles in order to continuously update and renew its digital advertising revenue streams.
