A report from Harris Interactive: “Given all the negativity surrounding the sub-prime mortgage marketplace, it is no surprise that consumers have questioned the credibility of the current marketing and advertising for mortgage products. Just one-third of US adults (34%) view the advertising and marketing of mortgage products as credible, with the majority (66%) viewing it as not credible. In fact, one in five adults (22%) report that they view the advertising and marketing of these products as ‘not at all credible.’”
“These numbers have significant implications for the type of trust the American public has in financial institutions. When probed further about their perceptions of the financial institutions that provide mortgages, only one-quarter (27%) of U.S. adults report favorable perceptions, with just three percent saying their perceptions are very favorable. ‘Given the large proportion of consumers who are riding the fence, now more than ever would be a good time for these institutions to examine their mortgage product advertising and marketing messages,’ says Sanford Brumley, Vice President of Client Development for the Harris Interactive Financial Services Group.” read more >>
