Abstract

This paper presents and describes the ESCO Ranking of advertising agencies . The objective of this tool is to assess the quality of the agencies, based on their creative products and a rigorous evaluation of the various prizes received and the prestige of the festivals that granted them. For that purpose, festivals were classified into 4 categories based on their national and international importance and a sample was selected. A two-year period was considered for the ranking to ensure a balance of continuity and of innovation in each edition. This work aims at covering a gap in Spain as compared with other countries by providing not only a classification of the best advertising agencies but also an analysis of the advertising industry in Spain. The results of the 2012 edition include 197 agencies, 611 advertisements and 359 advertisers.
