When a new boss steps in to lead an agency, they must weigh up how much they change the business and how much the business changes them.Conrad Persons, president of Grey London, who joins the podcast team in this latest epsiode, says: "'That's how we do things round here' is one of the most abominable phrases in business."Persons is joined by Campaign's deputy editor, Gemma Charles, and premium content editor, Nicola Merrifield. The episode, hosted by tech editor Lucy Shelley, looks at balancing change, the importance of likability and technology's impact on leadership. Last year a raft of CEOs in the industry swapped seats, making news headlines across adland. They included Natalie Cummins, who left Publicis Media after 17 years to become CEO of EssenceMediacom, and Kate Rowlinson, who became Group M CEO. Xavier Rees left Havas as group CEO of UK creative to lead Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO, and the subject of Campaign's Top people move of the year, James Murphy, became group CEO of Ogilvy after selling NCA to WPP.So how does a new agency leader make their mark, and how much change is too much?Further reading:What advice would you give adland's new crop of CEOs?EssenceMediacom UK CEO says media clients want answers, not theoryT&Pm appointed Victoria Appleby as UK CEONeverland promoted Josh Harris to CEOSaatchi & Saatchi hired Claire Hollands as CEOPaul Knight named CEO at PHD UK.

Social media gets a lot of buzz and an increasingly large slice of media budgets. But is that spend optimal compared with other media channels?In an article for The Media Leader last week, EssenceMediacom's chief strategy officer Richard Kirk revealed new research that suggests brands are spending three times as much on paid social than is most efficient.Kirk and Olga Zaitseva, EssenceMediacom's head of media science and modelling, join Jack Benjamin to unpack the findings.According to the pair, paid social receives more attention from marketers than is strictly necessary, and if AV budgets were increased, campaign effectiveness would likely improve."We're starting to see multiple pieces of research all pointing in quite a specific direction," says Kirk. "And I would hope that those things combined start to lend real credence to this idea that maybe the industry has gone too far in one direction and needs to correct."Highlights:1:09: How surprising are EssenceMediacom's findings?5:00: Reasons brands are overspending on social media18:46: Caveats: different results for SMBs, production budgets23:14: AV channels are underinvested.

GroupM's Global Practices Lead Sargi Mann, Adelaide Metrics Founder and CEO Marc Guldimann, and Mars' Sr Director of Global Media Ron Amram discuss the impact that attention-based approaches to measurement are having on ethical and effective media management. Key takeaways: Attention metrics help advertisers understand the quality of their media buys, leading to more effective campaigns and better return on investment (ROI). GroupM has integrated attention metrics into their performance-centric strategy, evolving with changing times and ensuring maximum value from every marketing and media dollar invested. Mars has found attention metrics to be correlated to business success, improving the effectiveness of their campaigns by understanding the quality of each impression. Adelaide is working to make attention metric data available in whatever way advertisers want, including via GroupM Nexus's custom algorithms. The use of attention metrics has led to responsible media investment, driving better outcomes and creating a positive feedback loop for advertisers, publishers, and consumers. The future of attention metrics includes embedding it in buying systems, scaling it across more digital platforms, and incorporating the data into planning tools. There is a need to evolve measurement models to shift from volume to value, aligning with the long-term effects of attention metrics in creating a shared understanding of quality and driving more trust in the market.

Where has the joy gone in digital advertising? And how can we get it back? James Chandler, chief marketing officer at the IAB, thinks that while the start of the digital scene was "an incredibly exciting space", the feeling of "joy and magic dissipated" somewhere along the way.In a study with advertisers, the IAB found that this came down to two things: "unease" about the pace of change and a feeling of "futility mainly around creativity", where advertisers do not feel "they have got much agency" in a world of algorithms and AI.Indeed, as Chandler acknowledges, in a seven-year career at the IAB, there have been "big moments" including brand safety, fraud and ad-blocking – all of which have had "advertisers questioning the integrity of the performance of digital".So the focus should be on getting people to "rediscover" joy, fun and creativity in digital advertising.Chandler joins Ella Sagar to discuss joy in digital advertising and highlights sessions from the recent Engage conference, including talks from former UK MD for Twitter Dara Nasr and EssenceMediacom's Geoff de Burca and Lindsey Jordan.

Out of home will be ‘20% programmatic within two years', as ecom, retail, food, entertainment target brand and performance – but buying on CPMs alone misguided

Mi3 Audio Edition

A year ago programmatic sales were just 2 per cent of QMS' business. By the year-end, says Head of Programmatic, Laura Wall, it will be double digits. She says the market is starting to move, and latest SMI data, with pDOOH up 100 per cent in Q1, underlines that trend. Kinesso's Chief Media Activations Officer, Michael Whiteside, thinks even that rise is “undercooked”. He sees programmatic out of home – or pDOOH – making up 20 per cent of the market within two years. That's partly because advertisers are seeking increased efficiency and trying to stretch budgets; partly because programmatic buying brings in a new cohort of advertisers that might have been priced out of traditional out of home; and partly because pDOOH delivers both brand and demand. But Whiteside thinks there needs to be a better understanding of the value that programmatic out of home brings. CPMs, he says, are not the only factor – and advertisers with weak attribution models cannot correctly value the flexibility and targeting afforded by pDOOH – especially if they are comparing it to other programmatic media. Understanding out of home's nuance from a planning and buying perspective remains imperative – and it cannot be lumped in with broader programmatic channels. Hence QMS' teams selling on a “total out of home basis”. Creating sales silos, says Wall, played out badly in publishing's early programmatic days. Either way, some of Essencemediacom's early adopter clients are now pushing 100 per cent of OOH budgets into programmatic, says Group Director Katherine ‘KP' Pochroj, who suggests “remnant inventory … is simply not a thing any more”.  Entertainment and ecom brands, she says, are making major gains from mapping stores and high value audiences through mobile data – and are able to directly attribute sales increases to their programmatic buys. But better measurement, says Pochroj, is required to keep pDOOH's momentum moving. Kinesso's Whiteside thinks the launch of MOVE 2.0 will provide sharper answers – and “highlight the value of each panel”.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At the beginning of the year, in March 2023, the team from Data Talks attended the Women in Football Be Inspired Conference in partnership with Barclays at Wembley Stadium. Lorraine Moalosi, our Head of Communications and PR joined a panel discussion entitled, "Marketing the game: commercializing women's football". She was joined by Lyndsey Clark, Marketing Specialist at UEFA, Misha Sher, the Global Head of Sport, Entertainment & Culture at Essencemediacom, Maggie Murphy, the CEO of Lewes FC, and Sara Hunter, Senior Commercial Manager, Women's Football at the FA. This incredible panel was hosted by Lisa Parfitt, Co-Founder of The Space Between Sports and a Director of Women in Football.This was such a relevant discussion that the room was filled with keep audiences from wall to wall wanting to hear more about how to go about "marketing the game". Here's a brief summary of some highlights from the session, provided by Women in Football UK:“Knowing your audience is key,” said Lorraine Moalosi, Head of PR & Communication at Data Talks. The appetite for women's football has grown exponentially in recent years and Lorraine told the audience: “We need to dream higher and set higher goals – because we know we can achieve them.”Often women's football is let down by resources, and audience insight data is lacking in the women's game, which makes it difficult for clubs to analyse audiences. Sara Hunter, Senior Commercial Manager, Women's Football at the FA, admired how companies like Amazon obsess over their customers and believes sport can learn a lot from this.Maggie Murphy, CEO at Lewes FC, recalled how her club brought in their audiences: “We had a target audience of ‘unwelcome women' – those who might like the game but have never attended a match because they might not feel welcome.” The values of the club and what you stand for are as important as the product on the pitch, she told us.

How I Became ...

The story… Growing up the youngest child, Sue learnt from a young age that hierarchy wasn't for her, this later allowed Sue to break the norms within the workplace and try different approaches in order to succeed. In her teenage years, becoming an introvert meant Sue often felt quite lonely, concentrating on her studies and her love for history allowed Sue to focus on her techniques rather than networking which later benefited her career. Sue then began her career at The Media Business as the Head of Strategic Planning in the 90's. Now Chief Transformation Officer of (the newly merged) EssenceMediacom, which has  over 10,000 employees. With her years at Mediacom, Sue has seen the company grow from revenues of    £44 million in 1990 to £2 billion in turnover now. Opening up about motherhood, Sue discusses the challenges of being a young working mother and the guilt of not being able to give her all to every aspect of her life. A friend suggested one way to deal with the anxieties of everyday life – meditation. Sue has been meditating for nearly 25 years now, shereveals the importance of practising mindfulness and just taking 10 minutes in your day to relax. Also, an author of 3 bestselling books, Esquire named Sue's latest book "The most important business book of the year", Sue is no stranger to breaking the glass ceiling and driving for more equality within the workplace. To hear Sue open up about her successful career, her love for history, music and media, and valuable advice on how to reach the top, listen to this episode of the How I Became podcast.
