The nature of online advertising allows us the chance to deeply understand performance but in the past we haven’t done a very good job of making these capabilities work for us. The Nielsen representatives will show us how we are able to understand the effectiveness of brand based advertising online and use this information to become more efficient, but this requires organizational and attitudinal change.
2. Sometime ago…
“Half the money I spend on
advertising is wasted; the
trouble is I don’t know
which half”
John Wanamaker
US Department Store

(1838-1922)
3. The Industry is open to change
“We have endless data. We need
help to find what information to
look at, what is important and what
is just noise”
“It’s incredibly difficult to link
performance to an actual ad to an
actual behavior. We would invest
more in media if we saw a direct
pay off”
“Media goals cannot be
determined equally because there
are not common metrics in TV,
online, print. It’s imperative to
“Advertising spend is like bowling: understand the relative
after rolling the ball, you have to effectiveness across platforms”
wait for the ball to go all the way to
the end to learn if you striked. You
are hand tied and can’t make any
changes mid course and just wait”
“There are too many players with
different objectives. Creative or
media agencies, traditional or
digital agencies; coordination must
happen”
