Dear Members and friends of ADMA

Well, now that we have opted out of 2007, I wanted to highlight the results of our recent Asia Pacific Digital Marketing Survey. This is the fourth time we have run the survey, which (it will not surprise you to learn) was conducted online. Thanks to Digital Media magazine, HKDMA, Hong Kong 4As, IAA HK and the HKIM for helping us reach out to advertisers, marketers and their agencies regionwide.

The full survey results are available online here.

The headlines are:

  • 39% of respondents said they are spending more than 15% of their ad budgets online -- and 70% continue to increase their digital marketing budgets

  • in 2007, marketers are using a more diverse mix of digital vehicles than ever before, including online advertising, blogs, viral, mobile, search engine marketing, e-newsletters, corporate/marketing Web sites, and of course good "old fashioned" online advertising beefed up with rich media and new ad formats

  • despite the YouTube hype, two thirds of marketers haven't used video file sharing sites to host brand or company videos

  • despite the blog hype, only 38% maintain corporate blogs
  • mobile shows great promise with a long way to go - most marketers using mobile (83%) use SMS text messages to reach their prospects


  • Speaking of useful industry data, the ADMA Yearbook will be back again in 2008. The first edition was given a huge welcome. Printed and PDF copies found their way onto the desks of marketers, agencies, analysts and Internet executives around the world. It's not too soon to start providing data for this valuable resource - please share data, trends, and insights with Kay Bayliss. We'll also be offering sponsorship and advertising opportunities to help fund this venture on a bigger and better scale for 2008.

    Stuffed with data on the Internet and user trends, last year's Yearbook also include perspectives on the way forward for advertisers in 2007, case studies and individual country profiles. The Yearbook has proven a valuable resource for marketers, online publishers, ad agencies and media buyers, interactive media houses, and technology solutions providers.

    We’re looking for:

  • proprietary research results (share your topline non-confidential business information with the industry)

  • research and data references (ADMA will get any necessary permissions or rights for usage)

  • case studies

  • trends and tips


  • Please contact the ADMA Director and let us know what you can provide and how we can follow-up.

    Your contribution to the publication will be acknowledged, and your participation will be a great way to show your company’s industry leadership.

    Please take a moment to think about what you can contribute.

With just a few clicks, they can calculate rates for standard and creative ad units; local editions, multiple editions and full-runs in Asia; and single or multiple frequencies.

    The new online media guide also provides useful information such as the most recent audited circulations figures; the 2008 editorial and events calendars; and research highlights sorted by category.

    The 2008 online media guide and rate calculator can be accessed here.
