The Call for Cross Media Measurement Traditional media planning and optimization is more challenging than ever Proliferation of channels - Internet, TV, print, radio and mobile. It’s crucial to identify the optimal media mix to best drive results and prevent uninformed decision making Increased media fragmentation, a cluttered media environment, and consumers’ decreasing reliance on a single media source Continued need to quantify impact and ROI for media investments Advancements in ad-serving, tracking of actual exposure (i.e. online) and point in time measurement have led to significant breakthroughs

A Comprehensive Solution, 5 Key Benefits 1. Superior methodology: For offline exposure tracking, OTS (Opportunity To See) offers a better read on media consumption. For online exposure tracking, Experimental Design precisely isolates the advertising effect. 2. Advanced analytics: More advanced than historic tracking data, Cross Media analytic outputs are both predictive and diagnostic moving beyond trends. 3. Brand equity expertise: Enhance Cross Media data with unique brand performance barometers and key drivers analyses.

A Comprehensive Solution, 5 Key Benefits 4. Progressive recruitment methods: Innovative sampling options based on our patented methodology. 5. Sophisticated technology: Our powerful survey platform can streamline your research and significantly improve efficiency.

a comprehensive solution: superior methodology: ots Superior Methodology: Opportunity To See OTS is the gold standard in Cross Media Endorsed by the ARF OTS provides the most reliable method of identifying media consumption Employs a true exposed/unexposed research design. OTS places emphasis on whether the respondent had a true “opportunity to see” an ad, rather than relying on an unpredictable source of recall measure Even when traditional trackers (infrequently) capture media consumption data, it’s not incorporated into analytics Online exposure is not well documented by traditional studies

a comprehensive solution: superior methodology: ots OTS Print Example Which of the following publications do you read or subscribe to? (Answer choices: Publication 1, Publication 2, Publication 3, etc). Which of these issues of Publication 1 have you read or looked through? (Sample answers: 6/15, 8/10, 9/7, etc. as issues go to print and cover images become available). Which of these issues of Publication 2 have you read or looked through? (Answer choices again include specific dates) Test OTS = “Read or looked through” issues containing ads Frequency = Number of issues read containing ads

a comprehensive solution: superior methodology: ots OTS TV Example Which of the following television networks do you watch? (Answer choices: ABC, NBC, FOX, etc). Please indicate the times of day and days of the week you usually watch TV: Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Morning (6a-Noon) Afternoons (Noon-5pm) Early Evening (5pm- 8pm) Prime Time (8pm- 11pm) Late Night (After 11pm) Test OTS = Watch the networks carrying ads during time slots ads ran if surveyed after ad launch Frequency = Number of time slots watched * Time between campaign start and survey time stamp.

a comprehensive solution: superior methodology: ots •Television •Radio •Online •Magazine •Outdoor •Newspaper •Online •Others

a comprehensive solution: superior methodology: experimental design Superior Methodology: Experimental Design For online and mobile exposure tracking, Experimental Design precisely isolates the advertising effect by pre-assigning individuals to either the test or control group using ad server segmentation, and then comparing their responses. Through our proven AdInsights® offering, the exposure to each online ad is recorded in the Web user’s cookie file. This data lets InsightExpress determine frequency, exposure to individual creative units, and sites visited. Norms across verticals and publisher genres provide category- wide benchmarks For offline media, Experimental Design is not viable, therefore OTS is employed.

a comprehensive solution: advanced analytics Advanced Analytics InsightExpress provides sophisticated analyses that uncover valuable and actionable learnings. Frequency optimization: A model built to examine the impact of frequency levels for individual media channels and identify the most effective range. Cost per branding effect: Determine the most cost effective channel(s) for optimizing lift among key branding metrics (unaided ad awareness, unaided brand awareness, aided brand awareness, preference, etc.) Media channel comparison: Understand the brand delta for each channel, holding frequency constant

a comprehensive solution: brand equity Deeper Analytic Insights With Brand Equity Start with a snapshot of current brand equity. Establish a baseline from which brand equity can be gauged moving forward. Continuously track equity over time. Deliver strategic brand-building intelligence to make real-time decisions. Monitor how your media strategies affect your brand. To further enhance your data, consider including a set of brand attribute questions and analyze key driver measures.

a comprehensive solution: progressive recruitment Progressive Recruitment Approach Employs our patented, cutting-edge e-RDD sampling methodology Data collected online for all media channels Online data collection for those experiencing online media Ability to target recruitment Quality of recall sample (based on actual exposure) Segmentation by creative, size, ad size, frequency, etc. Online data collection for those experiencing offline media An alternative to falling offline cooperation / completion rates Supports image, audio and video stimuli, enhancing recall accuracy Lessens economic research burden, maximizing media dollars Panel recruitment allows for representative audience outside online media footprint

CROSS MEDIA MEASUREMENT Methodology & Deliverables The Call The IX Advantage Our Methodology Getting Started 22

How It Works Offline Exposed Segment Brand Impact Offline Control Offline Media Segment Representative Consumption Brand Attitudes InsightExpress (OTS) Panelists Online Exposed Segment Web Site Audience Brand Attitudes Online Control Segment

Our Survey Design and Recruitment Design: Factorial experimental (when feasible) Matched/split markets: TV, radio, etc. Ad server segmentation (when online advertising is in the mix) Recruitment: Exposed/unexposed ad-measurement techniques OTS: Media consumption behaviors intersected with media plan Actual exposure data (via cookie data when using online advertising) Sample: Representative sample source Ensure performance of all mediums is not over or under represented Understand market sizes and incidence Typically recruit minimum n=400/medium (n=200 exposed/n=200 control) Continuous recruitment Monitor the campaign build over time, reducing any time based shocks Pre/post reserved for roadblock type situations

Our Cross Media Analysis Approach 1. Combine survey results Core: survey results from representative source Proportional augment: results from the online ad media stream 2. Weight control and test groups to isolate advertising impact Key demographics Custom client/industry dimensions Media consumption habits 3. Determine exposure levels in aggregate by media type Offline: OTS by media plan and stated media habits Online: recorded ad exposures

Our Cross Media Analysis Approach 4. Measure branding metrics in aggregate and by media type, accounting for exposure levels Awareness (unaided, aided, awareness of advertising, message association, etc.) Persuasion (brand favorability, likelihood of purchase, likelihood of recommending to friends or relatives, brand attributes, etc.) 5. Calculate economic impact for each metric and media based upon: Brand performance Market size and reach Spend

Our Analytical & Decision-Making Deliverables Key deliverables that provide actionable learnings: Cross Media campaign performance summary (also available by target sub groups) Media channel comparisons Economic performance, including Aggregate Cost per Branding Effect calculations Branding/frequency elasticity and implications on brand and campaign metrics AdInsights® online media measurement analysis Brand Equity measures Media optimization, when appropriate
