Those findings were recently validated in a study by PwC. “We can predict with a high degree of accuracy if an ad will be seen,” Lucy said. Integral Ad Science has incorporated Lumen’s predictive eye-tracking data into its attention model. When you’re comparing something like Pneterest to Instagram to display to linear, you should have one metric that would say this is how much attention costs for each each of these impressions,” he said.

“The ultimate goal would be to create a single attention per impression cost.

Lucey said attention could serve as a way to measure not just linear and streaming video, but for measuring across all media times. Lumen Is among the companies looking at attention as a key metric for measuring media. The integration of Scope3’s carbon emissions dataset into the Lumen Attention Measurement Dashboard demonstrates the connection between attention and sustainability and allows us to optimize for media placements that deliver for brands, people, and the planet,” Waite said. “As stewards of our clients’ brands, we have a responsibility to deliver a holistic view of the impact of their marketing activities. Our proprietary data has demonstrated that better quality, high-attention media delivers better results for brands, and we are consistently working with partners to create metrics that can accurately assess the attention and quality of each media placement,” said Jon Waite, Global Managing Director, Mx Development, Havas Media Group. “Havas Media Group is committed to earning people’s attention and building meaningful connections with brands. One working with Lumin is Havas Media group. Several media buyers have made sustainability a criterion they use when buying for clients interested reducing their carbon footprint. Certain ad vendors also have clunky technology that isn’t efficient in terms of how often its refreshes and its ability to connect with demand side platforms. “The more ads there are on the screen, the less attention and the higher emissions per attentive second,” Lucey said.

“The bottom line is there are a lot of websites just running ads that no one is actually looking at, so it’s just a waste overall for ad budgets, but also for the environment,” Lucey said.Ĭlutter tends to lower scores for both attention and sustainability. The carbon data also tends to favor providers of ads that are actually seen by consumers, generating attention, rather than those that publish many ads that are technically viewable but don’t generate actual impact. Advertisers can avoid wasting media dollars by shifting from older viewability standards to attention, which according to Lumen’s studies more closely correlates to return on investment. The two metrics are related in terms of eliminating waste. Putting them both together comes down to creating different incentives for advertisers, said Blaise Lucey, global marketing director at Lumen “We’re hoping that this is the first step in a journey to make a low carbon, high attention, high impact internet.”īoth attention and sustainability have been hot topics in the advertising business.

“By integrating Scope3’s carbon emissions technology with the Lumen Attention Measurement Platform, we are enabling advertisers to better understand how to make climate-friendly and business-friendly decisions,” says Mike Follett, CEO of Lumen Research. Now clients will be able to judge in real time whether their ads are efficient in terms of both reaching consumers and in their use of energy, an increasingly important mandate to many companies prioritizing sustainability with zero-net-carbon footprint goals. Lumen Research, already providing clients with data about the attention their ads generate, is adding a new carbon measurement tool to its dashboard in a partnership with Scope3.
