The Fight For Consumers’ Attention
Media and advertising are now unavoidable parts of daily life. While advertising has existed for centuries, starting with newspaper ads and evolving through radio, TV, and billboards, the digital age has dramatically increased our exposure. In the 1970s, people encountered around 500 ads daily. Today, that number has skyrocketed to over 5,000 ads per day, creating new challenges for reaching increasingly distracted consumers.
It’s getting harder to catch people’s attention with ads in 2025. Many people are tired of seeing the same old marketing tricks, especially online. Looking back at online marketing, we can see how things keep changing. Companies have to come up with new ideas to stand out from their competition.
Take pop-up ads, for instance. When they first appeared on the internet, they were everywhere. But people got so annoyed that they started using pop-up blockers. Then companies started using personal data to show people specific ads based on their interests. This created new problems, like worries about privacy. Now, people see so many online ads that they’re becoming less likely to pay attention to them.
Even real-world ads, like billboards and signs, face challenges. While these ads don’t disappear like online ones do, people are getting better at ignoring all types of advertising, whether they’re scrolling through their phone or walking down the street.
