6 PROVING the VALUE of TV ADVERTISING GRP just isn t enough anymore I need to prove that my campaigns are driving value. Traditionally, TV ad measurement attempts to answer the question, How many people saw my ad? Modern marketers are ready to go a step further: Did my ad actually change customer behavior? EXPERT TIP: TV VS. DIGITAL VIDEO A consistent KPI across television and digital media allows you to develop the ideal media mix for driving action. This is especially useful in comparing the value of television ads against digital video to determine which TV is most effective for your brand.
