McDonald’s was, by far, the most active advertiser on televison for the week of September 11 to 17, according to media monitoring data from AdEase.
The QSR has been holding strong at the top spot on the national list for several weeks now as it bets big on its Mighty McMuffin and Crispy Ranch menu items.
Menawhile, The Brick moved into second place from the previous week’s #4, and Downy jumped to #3, up from #7.
As it has been previous weeks, the top buying category was Quick Service Restaurants, with TV & Streaming Services coming in at #2, and Furniture Stores landing in the #3 position.
All figures based on total play counts. Number in parentheses is the previous week’s rankings; (-) denotes an advertiser/category that did not rank the previous week.
