Changes • New media technologies change consumer behavior • TV consumption stable, but increased use of internet; video online emerging • Digital TV leads to audience fragmentation and increased competition among TV content providers • Nielsen has increased sample size to provide more reliable measures of exposure • 90% of all programs reach less than 1% of audience • Internet providers aggressively develop new tools to measure web use and impact of web advertising • Growth of DVRs raises fears about future of TV as advertising medium 24
Changes • Changes affect marketplace and TV business • Advertisers’ options increase • TV networks need to expand sales activity – go beyond negotiations for price • International agencies complain that Nielsen system provides less detailed information than European system - demand “commercial ratings” • DVR ad skipping strengthens demand for changes in TV measurement • Don’t want to pay for ads watched in fast speed • Technological advances allow Nielsen to generate more detailed, minute-by minute data 25
Metrics Innovation: Commercial Ratings • First major shift in TV currency 2007/2008 season • As in most European countries, currency becomes exposure to commercial pods, not to the average minute of the entire program • Decrease in ratings generally 5-10% • Nielsen data show most people do not change channel during commercials! • To account for DVR use, commercials watched time-shifted in real time (not fast-forward) within three days of airing included in measure • “C3” measure • TV currency is still measure of exposure 26
New Measures • Competition in the marketplace and availability of new data sources leads to increased use of new measures to support sales • New trend: make deals with measurement that goes beyond exposure • Examples • Engagement measures • New technologies (Set-top box data, cell phones, eye tracking) 27
New Measures • Program engagement • Measure by IAG (now owned by Nielsen) has been used for guarantees • Use of new technologies • Eye tracking to measure attention to advertising seen in fast forward mode • Set-top box data as source of exposure data • Used by Google as currency • Cell phone user sample to measure cross media exposure and ad effectiveness 28
