Cristina Guisasola; Media and interactive Manager – Proctor and Gamble; Italy In today’s increasingly fragmented media landscape and with rising costs of reaching consumers via TV and traditional media, understanding how digital video can work in driving marketing KPIs is key to being cost efficient. We now know that the combination of TV and Digital Video drives both higher recall and brand preference than either media alone.

Groups of respondents are formed on the basis of their media exposure and are statistically levelled/weighted to remove any bias that might occur due to the self selective nature of media.
