Many reports have surfaced with regard to which Super Bowl ads amused, appealed or were remembered, but here's one that cuts to performance… is it convincing?

Kate Maddox reports in BtoB how Merwyn Research provides timely research to assist in evaluating ad design strategy. Using artificial intelligence since 1999 to predict the probability of an advertisement having a tangible impact on customer purchase behavior, the just released report finds that only 31% of ads during Super Bowl XXXVI achieved higher-than-average customer persuasion scores.

Some rankings in the report :

Product Persuasion Score
General Motors Cadillac Escalade 51%
Subway Restaurants  50%
LaRoche flu shot 44%
H&R Block Tax Code Changes  39%
FedEx Corp.  21%
AT&T mLife 10%
Monster.com 10%
E-Trade Group 10%
