Outrank boundary note

Topic is PAID TV advertising's measurable effects on organic search performance. This is Adwave's lane (paid advertising). Do NOT write SEO how-to content (keyword research, link building, on-page tactics = Outrank). Every section stays anchored to the TV campaign side of the relationship.

Core thesis

TV creates demand; search captures it. The two channels compound: TV drives branded search volume, brand familiarity raises SERP click-through on everything you rank for, and the demand TV creates shows up in your organic numbers (often miscredited to "SEO just working better").

Structure

1. Why the channels get budgeted as rivals (and why that's wrong)
2. The mechanism: demand creation vs demand capture
3. Effect 1: branded search lift (the most direct, measurable effect)
4. Effect 2: SERP behavior (familiar brands earn the click, non-branded too)
5. Effect 3: direct traffic and the attribution shadow
6. Effect 4: more customers → more reviews/mentions (downstream signals)
7. Coordinating the two: message match, landing pages, QR strategy, measurement windows
8. Table: TV campaign effect → where it shows up in organic metrics
9. Worked timeline (month 1-6 of a TV flight, what organic metrics do)
10. FAQ (5) → CTA
