Extending these discoveries, it shows that participants were better able to remember print ads in terms of their content, context, and brand affiliation when they used passages as access cues. There is further evidence that the clear memory advantage for print ads is mostly attributable to improved coding during first exposure. This is possible as well as showing that the results of earlier studies have a high degree of reliability. Despite the rapid rise of digital media and communication, these results show that marketers should not ignore the importance of print media in advertising. This is the conclusion that can be drawn from a practical point of view about the results of the research. In a more digital world, the future of print advertising is often up for debate.
