  1. The State of Tablet Metrics Everything We Know is Wrong

  2. So What’s Wrong? • Tablet media will provide unprecedented levels of engagement • But major media publishers apply print media metrics ? =

  3. So What’s Wrong? • Clickthroughs are dead • Fulfillment must be done within app to maximize user experience • Readers per copy is dead Here Lies CTR and RPC

  4. Well What DO we Know? • People are relaxed: 20% of iPad usage occurs in bed* *NPD survey data

  5. Well What DO we Know? • Engagement: more time spent with tablet apps than smartphone apps* *Ipsos/Mendelsohn 2010 Affluent survey

  6. Well What DO we Know? • Early adopter factor brings a young male skew1 • Will likely even out over time • Interest seen by older affluent crowd2 1 Nielsen Connected Devices Report 2Ipsos/Mendelsohn 2010 Affluent survey

  7. Planning Metrics • Largely vendor supplied • Total installs • Time spent • Easy to blame Apple • Publishers hiding behind Apple issues

  8. Planning Metrics • Harder to come by: • Avg. monthly users (audience) • Audience demographics

  9. Pricing • Pricing: Flat fee or CPM • CPMs high • FT app brought in $1.5MM+ in less than 6 months • Flat fee pricing problematic with little post analysis or verification available

  10. Party Like it’s 1999? • 3rd party serving only for basic units • Like early web, benchmarks are lacking

  11. Post Campaign Reporting • Publisher supplied metrics • Impressions • Engagement rates • Rich media actions

  12. What Else Can we Get? • Video metrics applicable for in-app ads • Started • Time spent with each brand experience • % completed

  13. The Quandary • The tablet is more than a new media vehicle • It is a new platform/media environment • In addition to the platform, individual vehicles must be evaluated for their significant differences

  14. Getting the Mindset • Recognize that tablet facilitates/replicates more than one medium, all of which need separate metrics • Print • Video

  15. The Next Steps • Tracking across apps, browsers, platforms • Increased use of location • Front-facing cameras • More advanced web apps - HTML 5 • Improved experience in web visitation and return to app

  16. Basic Wish List • Some immediately applicable areas: • Serving across platforms • Time spent with app/ad • Pages viewed (% and completion) • Engagement + Interactivity • Apply existing video metrics: • Started • Time spent • Completed
