2. Conversation Flow ANA, 4A’s, IAB Making Measurement Make Sense Q&A/Discussion Reaching the Elusive Affluents: Affluent Consumers in a Digital World Q&A/Discussion 1

3. What is Making Measurement Make Sense? Making Measurement Make Sense (3MS) is an ecosystem-wide initiative to propose standards for metrics and advertising “currency” that will enhance evaluation of digital media and facilitate cross- platform comparison for brand marketing Key objectives of the 3MS initiative are the following: Determining the right metrics and solutions Driving industry consensus around the solutions Establishing a measurement governance model

4. Who is involved with 3MS? 3MS is a joint undertaking of the IAB, the ANA and the 4A’s These organizations engaged Bain & Company and MediaLink to facilitate and manage the initiative The Newspaper Association of America (NAA) and the Online Publishers Association (OPA) also joined the initiative as supporters Nearly 40 industry executives were a part of our steering committee and working teams. In addition, we engaged over 150+ other industry participants across the ecosystem

5. Why did we embark upon the journey? Consumers embrace digital media in droves Business and transactions lag behind consumers Digital media need a consistent, transparent supply chain Digital media need to be part of a cross media marketing ecosystem The ecosystem needs a measurement policy voice Business leaders and functional experts need forums and mechanisms for change management

6. Facilitate cross-platform comparison 3MS initiative has led to the development of a five pillar metrics solution set Brand attitudinal measures 5 Standard classification of ad units 3 Define impression 1 Establish currency 2 Brand ad performance metrics 4 Shift from a “served” to a “viewable” impression standard Implement classification system and taxonomy for banner, rich media and streaming video ads Define standard and transparent metrics for view- through reporting and cumulative social activity Establish standards and vendor accreditation to improve methodology for online brand attitudinal studies Introduce an online Gross Ratings Point (GRP) metric, providing reach and frequency reporting of viewable impressions

7. 3MS prioritized view-through as the first standard brand ad performance metric Number of days after ad view that visit to brand site is counted Data indicates that majority of view-throughs occur within 7 days 3 days is analogous to TV’s C3 rating system Number of ad views attributed for a view-through All ads contribute to brand building and a user’s decision to eventually go to brand or other target site Percent of view-through attributed to different ad views Attribution standards to be further tested Last ad viewedAll ads 2 3 Parameter to be defined Range of options and suggested solutions All ads receive full attribution Each ad receives weighted fractional attribution 1 1 day 90 days Rationale 1)Standardize key parameters of this metric (see below) 2) Make this metric more transparent and credible by introducing accreditation for the reporting of this metric Goals of 3MS for Brand ad performance metrics 3 days and 7 days 1 st 2 nd 3 rd Each ad receives equal fractional attribution 4

8. Priority social metrics for standards-setting Standardized social metrics will be critical and remain under development Preliminary metric solutionsGoals of social metric standards Establish standards that provide a view of total relevant/ valuable social activity to assess campaign effectiveness Encourage accreditation of vendors providing standard social activity metrics Promote innovation, competition, and improvement by encouraging vendors to develop and offer metrics above and beyond that defined in standard metrics 4 Volume of high-value social activity/posts (e.g., reviews, sharings, recommendations, etc) Volume of exposures to high-value social activity Analysis of positive/negative social media sentiment 3MS led process to prioritize social metrics based on: 1)Value and usefulness of metric to advertisers 2)Availability of credible data

9. Improve response rates Shift to more accurate and relevant control groups Reduce use of statistical weighting adjustments Enhance ability to compare metrics with other media Pursue accreditation of vendors and sources of data via independent industry body Accreditation and improved methodologies will boost confidence in attitudinal studies Accredited attitudinal metrics vendors will need to address key requirements Options for improvements should follow in accordance with IAB Best Practices Improve existing methodology Adopt new survey formats Incorporate demographic and cookie data Switch to panel based surveys a c b d Improved user-intercept analysis conducted by 3 rd party vendors Variations of current user- intercept analysis Surveys delivered to people who have seen an ad (identified via cookies) Surveys delivered to panel members, with direct tracking of users 5

10. Ongoing development of standards body working with the Media Rating Council (MRC) A central governing body will be critical for implementing the solutions developed through the 3MS initiative, while continuing standards setting activities into the future Governance body should have cross platform mandate and balance buy and sell side representation Leveraging and expanding an existing body (vs. building de novo) has highest likelihood of success, with infrastructure, processes and industry credibility already in place Lead measurement change management 3MS recommends building off the existing MRC structure Key considerations for ongoing governance structure Right constituency, with cross-platform member base including publishers, agencies, associations (and some advertisers) Expertise from accrediting and auditing to transition into industry policy-making and priorities-setting role Trusted and objective senior leadership Low-cost operating model

11. 3MS timeline and outcomes Q2Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q3Q4 20122011 Phase 1Phase 2Go-forward OUTCOMES 3MS solutions delivered and communicated to ecosystem at-large Governance structure and roles developed and detailed Overall implementation/ change management plan and timelines developed 3MS outreach for key stakeholders Initial viewable impression pilot design and recruitment completed MRC integrated into 3MS process Viewable impression pilot for display ads launched in marketplace Video GRP standards and requirements developed Ad unit taxonomy/classification system in testing Phase 2 initiatives (e.g. viewable, GRP and classification) transitioned from pilot to soft and full launch Standards for remaining two solutions developed (ad performance and attitudinal metrics)
