Let’s recap what we learned• We spend time preparing and targeting ad campaigns but often
don’t know who was actually reached.
• Your local analytics don’t give a complete picture of a campaign audience.
• Panel supported analytics provide the deepest audience insight.
• Campaign effectiveness can be increased and wasted spend minimized by optimizing reach and frequency
