How Coronavirus / COVID-19 and the Global Economy are Affecting Ad Rates

Join Whitney as she discusses how the broader global economy affects ad rates, especially during the current Coronavirus / COVID-19 pandemic. See why the stock market plummeted, why ad rates have followed, and what to expect for the rest of 2020. Many initially believed that ad prices may rise as more people were quarantined and/or working from home and online more. However, ad rates have actually done the opposite. While the stock market saw its lowest numbers since the 2008 Recession a few days ago, ad rates have dropped as well. While measures are being taken to slow the spread of coronavirus / COVID-19, much of the economy relies on countries working together--specifically with China for manufacturing--and the larger economy will take a toll on everything, including digital ad spend.
