More details are starting to come out about the immense advertising plans Microsoft has for MSN Search. According to Online Media Daily...
The ad campaign aims to reach 90 percent of U.S. households 40 times in the next eight weeks, said Chris Cocks, MSN's director of global campaigns. "This will be our biggest campaign since the introduction of the MSN Butterfly in 2000," Cocks said. The initiative will hit 25 markets in 10 languages concurrently.
Be prepared to get sick of hearing about MSN Search...
MSN will primarily buy ads on cable TV, but also plans to purchase air time in the top 12 metro markets during heavyweight television events like the Superbowl this Sunday, the Academy Awards, and the NCAA finals in March.
Can Microsoft's billions help it achieve in months, what it took Google years to do virally?
