A look at the American Advertising Federation (AAF)


     Online video has brought about a new frontier for advertisers.  Advertising is a surefire way to generate revenue for your websites, magazines, and much more.  This business model guarantees that if you can show a potential advertiser their content will reach a large audience, the advertiser will be more than happy to compensate your company for these impressions. It demonstrates a nice return on their investment (ROI).

     Joining the American Advertising Federation (AAF)  is a “no Brainer” for web video content producers to join this organization.  The AAF is not only the largest, but also the oldest trade organization in the advertising community. The programs they have developed will keep your company informed about the newest practices in the advertising industry with proven practices for growing advertising income.

     The AAF has created a collective group of diverse advertising professionals sharing the goal.  The leading advertisers in the nation have joined this organizations network with nearly 20 local federations that represent the more than 40,000 ad professionals in the nation. This will bring the web video professionals together with advertisers yielding creative business solutions that will bring this profession in to the forefront.  The AAF is located in Washington, D.C.

     There are 200 AAF college chapters.  This represents close to 7000 student members.  Through the use of these college chapters AAF is fostering the welfare of these future advertising professionals by educating them on the latest trends in advertising. The AAF encourages the inclusion of a diverse membership by recruiting people from diverse backgrounds and cultures.

The American Advertising Federation protects and promotes the well being of advertising. We accomplish this through a unique, nationally coordinated grassroots network of advertisers, agencies, media companies, local advertising clubs and college chapters. (1)
