...AND WHERE THEY WILL GO
WHY 2014 AD BUDGETS COULD ROCKET PAST EXPECTATIONS
HERE'S WHY
Based on S&P 500 (big company) analysis, we estimate companies could spend $185 billion in advertising in 2014 - $7 billion more than the eMarketer estimate as of Dec. 2013.
Ad budgets peaked at $178 billion in 2007 before the recession, and are projected to reach $178 billion for 2014, according to eMarketer.However, most S&P companies surpassed 2007 values years ago and have kept growing.

While the US GDP was severely impacted by weather in Q1, analysts believe that the U.S. economy continues to improve - so why would ad spend as a percentage of total revenue decrease from last year?
Even if it remained stagnant from last year at 1.72%, we would see a $184 billion total ad spend.
Looking Ahead to 2014 Growth
Despite the weather, 68% of S&P 500 companies surpassed estimates for Q1 earnings.
