Watch the newest ads on TV from Google, Southwest Airlines, Target and more – Info Advertisement
Every weekday we bring you the Ad Age/iSpot Hot Spots, new TV commercials tracked by iSpot.tv, the real-time TV ad measurement company with attention and conversion analytics from more than eight million smart TVs. The ads here ran on national TV for the first time over the weekend.
A few highlights: Google promotes its Grow With Google program (“Free training, tools, and events to help you grow your skills, career, or business”). In a high-energy spot, Target serves up motivational messages of sorts for kids—including “Lead the pack” and “Rock it”—as back-to-school season heats up. And Southwest Airlines employees are totally excited about an award (for customer satisfaction) they got from J.D. Power.
