YanHaas is a Colombia-based market research firm that performs advanced studies for clients in South America. The company uses Tobii Pro eye tracking to better understand how consumers perceive and engage with clients’ assets, such as ads and other marketing material.
“Eye tracking is more than just another research tool; it has enabled us to gather more insights about commercial content than any other traditional methodology. The commercial success of our clients is always our main goal, and eye tracking is an important component in this pursuit, very much so in this particular project.”
Catalina Mejia
CEO at YanHaas SA
YanHaas worked with multinational brand owner Team Foods to help optimize a TV commercial for a newly released cooking oil. The main objective was to evaluate the animatic before production of the final commercial to ensure a positive response and a 5% increase in ‘Top of Mind’ awareness. The company wanted to better understand the level of attention towards various elements of the ad, how effective the branding and messaging was, and what meaning viewers took away.
The study identified several elements of the TV commercial that were more appealing to the target customer, including the types of angles and imagery used in the commercial. The performance of the final commercial achieved a higher than average attention rate, and in some cases delivered a brand recall rate of 70%. The oil product featured in the commercial sored a total of 8 points in Top of Mind awareness evaluations among 100 brands. Testing advertising material is essential to ensure ROI is optimized, as even slight increases in attention can result in a higher brand recall and increased sales.
