Positivity really does matter for advertising: positive people consuming positive media are much more engaged, open-minded, purposeful and productive. They take more action and are more likely to buy advertised products. This is the main conclusion of the Gold Award winning research from Hearst in the UK. Based on these insights Hearst designed a positivity index and started a new ad product and proposition: Hearst Purpose.<\/em><\/p>\n

“We instinctively knew that it must be good for brands to appear amongst positive content in front of people who were feeling more positive”, says Hearst in their Award entry. But instinct isn’t always enough to turn the heads of the media and client community. The results from this research supported\u00a0their instincts and hypothesis.<\/p>\n

Hearst\u00a0defines their\u00a0purpose as helping people get more out of life. “Every piece of content we create, experience we deliver, product and service we provide is designed to help consumers enjoy their lives more and get so much more from it. We are a beacon of positivity in a turbulent and transformational world.”<\/p>\n

Are positive people more attractive?<\/h3>\n

The company asked Theobalds Road consulting to help answer the following questions:
\n1.Are there any positive people out there in the UK, if so, who are they and how many are there?
\n2. Are positive people more attractive to advertisers. If so, why?
\n3. And finally which media brands deliver the most positive media experiences and audiences?<\/p>\n
