The desks

Each desk is part of the editorial team with its own beat, not an individual. The byline names the desk, and the structured data identifies it as an organisation.

Measurement Desk

Covers measurement planning and modelling

Looks at experiment design, incrementality and marketing mix modelling for media decisions.

Planning Desk

Covers cross-channel planning and budgets

Explains how channels and budgets are weighed against each other across a plan.

Supplier Desk

Covers media suppliers, contracts and procurement

Focuses on evaluating media owners and the terms of buying agreements.

How we work

Written for the people who decide

Cross-channel planning, budgeting and supplier evaluation. Articles are written for people with a concrete decision in front of them, not for those trying to sell one.

Numbers name their source

Every figure says where it comes from and when it dates from. Where the industry disagrees, that is stated, rather than quietly taking a side.
