The whys and hows of a rising star-PBR
Article Abstract:
A study sponsored by the Incorporated Society of British Advertisers indicates that payment by results (PBR) has increased the renumeration of advertising agencies and improved their performance. The study, which was conducted and is continuing in Canada, the US, UK and Germany, cites the fact that not one advertiser reported poorer agency performance as a result of PBR. It is suggested that a universal PBR scheme is not possible because of the unique nature of client/agency relationship.

When you wish upon a star
Article Abstract:
Using celebrities to promote a product can be effective in enticing a viewer to stop surfing and start watching commercials, but it also has some disadvantages. Although using celebrities lend credibility to a product, the talent fees of celebrities dramatically increase an advertiser's production costs. In addition, the company as well as the product being endorsed by a celebrity will be affected if a celebrity- endorser gets involved in a scandal.
