Great discussion, gentlemen! Thanks for the context and a historical perspective about what’s up with GeoPath & OAAA. Only concern was the lack of diversity among the guests, especially when discussing the role of two women leaders in the industry. Hope you make an effort to address this in future pods.
thank you Kasper. Regarding diverse guests/board of director members, it is point well taken. We have not had a great deal of luck in recruiting females to join us and it is in part because of my lack of persistent effort. Every board member has offered to ‘give up’ their seat to bring in a female leader for the podcast. It is difficult for just anyone male or female, to join in, they must have independence to address our often critical of Industry issues from their employer, which is nearly impossible for BIG 3 Owner and Big 5 Agency employees. We are welcome specific suggestions.
Thank you for the additional context, Bill. It makes a huge difference to know about your efforts and the challenges thereof. Looking forward to more lively discussions!
Fascinating Panel. As a way of explaining the devaluation of OOH currency, which will give the sellers substantial numeric increases, the new OAAA OOH currency will be Pounds (i.e., Impressions). But, the old GeoPath currency was also typically referred to as pounds (i.e., impressions). Yes, but the new currency will be more like Egyptian Pounds, where as the GeoPath currency was closer to British Pounds. I will take 1 British Pound for my Egyptian Pound any day!! (Hint: The exchange rate is ~23:1 in favour of the British Pound.) An imperfect analogy but … I trust the sellers, Bob Wolfe, will enjoy their, “bigger numbers”. Sadly, I am certain the media agencies are already working on their discounting approaches for the new OOH currency because without an Eyes-On or Ears-On metrics (in any medium) there can be no brand outcomes per the ARF Media Model and best media planning & buying practices.
Thank you Kasper, never the less we know it is an objective to find a female board member in the near future and failure is not an option.
Thank you for the definitions and clarifications Tony Jarvis. We fear your prediction, “Sadly, I am certain the media agencies are already working on their discounting approaches for the new OOH currency.” At this juncture there is still hope these proposed guidelines and standards remain in the recommendations and not adopted status for an indefinite period or until a suitable round file option is exercised.
