In this webinar, hosted by Cressida Holmes‑Smith, CEO of Lucky Generals and Chair of the IPA Effectiveness Leadership Group, Les Binet and Will Davis build on their original findings and explore their implications for brands and marketers:

  • The most important marketing decision is the one firms pay least attention to.
  • A focus on the wrong metrics is destroying profits.
  • Firms are ignoring some of their most valuable customers.
  • Advertisers are missing big media opportunities.
  • Inefficient creative approaches mean most ads can’t pay back.
