Wearout

All ads eventually lose effectiveness. Running an ad after it has worn out can irritate and anger consumers. Once maximum effectiveness has been reached, the onset of wearout is rapid. The audience won’t be won back; once it is over something, it’s over it.

Wearout is a function of the interaction of frequency, exposure, and time. An ad run heavily and targeted to the same audience may reach wearout in four weeks.
