Today’s audience measurement challenge is NOT keeping up with technology, it’s keeping up with consumers. Where are they? What are they doing? How are they doing it? What tools can we use to measure them? Will they work with us to help secure measurement? These are the questions that 2008 Audience Measurement 3.0 addressed.
Previous ARF Audience Measurement Symposia have examined the challenges of traditional media versus new media and, last year, the increasing personalization of media. This year, we examined the urgent need to get measurement out in front of the consumer.
