Signals in the Noise: Part 2

Doing the Right Things

The  industry’s focus on outcomes risks losing sight of the advertising exposures and experiences that drive memory, preference and behaviour. So how do we bring audience measurement front and centre for planning and evaluating effectiveness?

Following the successful launch of the initial whitepaper in 2023, this webinar will unveil the latest findings on the crucial role joint industry data plays in enabling a full understanding of how advertising investment drives business impact. 

Hosted by Tony Regan, author of the Signals in the Noise publications, and featuring a host of senior agency leaders, this webinar will explain how:

  • Joint Industry data improves the effectiveness of multimedia plans.
  • Quality data inputs are crucial for quality outputs.
  • Joint industry principles are key to preserving trust and confidence.

Ensuring they remain trusted, transparent, and accountable will help advertisers and agencies invest with confidence for years to come.
