What are some of the concepts behind mediaViewPro Ad Campaign Analytics?

• Ad campaigns setting primary and intermediate objectives are more accountable and more effective.1

• Onlyprimarybusinessobjectivessuchasincreasingprofitormarketsharearetruefinalmeasuresofbusinesssuccess.2

• Asignificantchangeacrossawiderangeofintermediate objectives is a reliable predictor of business success.

• Because the importance of individual intermediate objectives varies by ad campaign, no single intermediate measure can be an infallible predictor.

• Best practice requires tracking multiple intermediate effects.3

• Assigning greater or lesser value to each intermediate objective,tobetteralignwithyourspecificcampaigngoals,improves campaign accountability and effectiveness.4

Why does mediaViewPro focus on intermediate objectives?

Intermediate objectives are the means to achieving primary ad campaign objectives. Taken individually, each intermediate objec-tive offers insight into how your campaign is working in comparison with other campaigns reaching your audience.

about

This publication is designed to provide accurate and authoritative information gathered from subscriber questionnaires. In publishing this report, neither the author nor the publisher is engaged in rendering legal, accounting or any other professional service. If required, legal advice or other expert assistance should be sought from a licensed professional.

Baxter Research Center Inc. (BRC)

is a leading provider of independent,

mixed-media audience analytics.

BRC’s audience metrics guide, optimize

and inspire ad-campaign effectiveness in

print, digital and online media.

Baxter Research Center Inc.’s (BRC) mediaViewPro study programs are conducted on-line using accepted advertising and editorial reader research methods and practices.

The reader panel was selected from the sponsoring publication’s qualified circulation of 40,005* using a structured random-interval selection process. Preparation of the survey instrument, sample selection, emailing, processing, tabulation and generation of final reports are conducted under the supervision of BRC.

Readers invited to participate via email are provided with a secure link to the question-naire. To ensure optimal delivery, all surveys are sent using BRC’s bonded email servers.

In those cases where two versions of the questionnaire are produced to maintain an ap-propriate level of reader response, both are identical with the exception of the ad listings, which are divided equally between the two. Ad recall data is based on a minimum of 100 returns. Splitting the survey into two or three versions to accommodate more ads will result in editorial and respondent profiles increasing to 200 and 300, respectively. Ad recall data will achieve a lesser number, but no fewer than 100 returns.

Ad and editorial reader recall data are fully disclosed in this report and online through advertiser micro-sites. Advertiser access to their micro-site is controlled by the sponsor-ing publication. Advertisers wishing to view online data should contact their magazine advertising sales representative for a link and password. A copy of the online survey is available upon request from BRC.
