Many of their expenditures will most likely be wasted on bad planning and even worse creative. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s like <a href=\"https:\/\/adpulp.wpengine.com\/why_is_advertis\/\">Bob Hoffman<\/a> said in 2010:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>With all the amazing advances in technology and communication, you would think there might be some concomitant blossoming of creativity. But there hasn\u2019t been. Not in advertising, not in music, not in art, not in literature, not in movies.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe that\u2019s why our industry has become obsessed with technology and media. There have been impressive, sometimes startling, leaps of innovation and inspiration in these areas.<\/p>\n<p>But, sadly, the &#8216;content&#8217; is just as crappy as ever.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yet, advertisers persist, sometimes to their own detriment.<\/p>\n<p>The Dentsu research also shows that people&#8217;s intolerance of advertising is a primary concern: 46 percent said this is a key barrier. &#8220;One of the most challenging trends facing marketers within global brands is the creeping realization that often consumers don&#8217;t really want to see advertising \u2014 at least, not in its traditional form.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Creeping realization?<\/em> Ads have been highly offensive for more than a century. With digital proliferation, the onslaught of meaninglessness is simply too much for most people to take. <\/p>\n<p>IN RELATED NEWS, P&#038;G, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/a4010798-73a8-11e8-b6ad-3823e4384287\">under pressure from slow sales and activist investors<\/a>, is cutting $400m from agency fees over the next three years.
