Magazine readership across all platforms revealed for first time

Magazine readership across all platforms revealed for first time

This week has seen the release of the industry’s new audience measurement currency, PAMCo – Audience Measurement for Publishers.

For the first time publishers and advertisers can see audience delivery across all platforms – including phone, tablet, desktop and print. The new currency entirely replaces the work of the now-defunct National Readership Survey.

With enormous numbers of people consuming publisher content on smartphones and tablet devices, the new currency opens up new opportunities to plan and trade against them.

“Having one single de-duplicated view across all platforms has been top of our wish list for many years,” said Paul Bainsfair, director general of the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising.

“PAMCo has delivered this to the benefit of publishers, their media agencies and advertising customers.”

Meanwhile, Time Inc CEO, Marcus Rich said: “Agencies have long sought to access our brands and audiences across all of our platforms with one single buy – PAMCo data now provides them with a robust rationale to justify inclusion of all publisher platforms to their clients to the benefit of all.”
