The Media Leader Podcast
In November, a new report from global advisory MediaSense found that an overwhelming majority of advertisers — three-quarters — are looking to make changes to their agency compensation model in the next three years.
A similar number of survey respondents indicated that they are seeking to better align agency compensation to business performance, however it may be defined by the brand.
According to Ryan Kangisser, chief strategy officer at MediaSense and co-author of the report, it is “unprecedented” for so many brands to want to change their compensation models at once.
Last year, Ryan spoke on The Media Leader Podcast about how advertisers do not find the current agency model to be fit for current and future needs.
Now, he returns to discuss whether the agency remuneration model is fit for purpose and what a new outcomes-based model could look like as a replacement in the near future.
“At the heart of this is the need for speed and agility,” Kangisser said.
