Stellar observation, loaf. Sometimes we just don't see the obvious.

You may have a point. They have to prove it to the market with increased transparency.No sign of that yet.When are the interims and what is the cash position?

Rone have taken themselves to the premium end of the market.

How else do you square them increasing $CPM from $0.60 to $4.32 over the last few years.

If advertisers and agencies didn't like the result that wouldn't happen.

Discuss.

Another great day watching the rags die painfully - surely payback for their inexcusable behavior over the last 5 years - the ringleader..sikhthetech gambles horses as well. lol

Swirl - swirl!

In a slowing economy , advertising budgets generally increase to retain market share , wpp has other issues which are now coming home to roost , R1 should see further opportunities ahead.

Why agencies need to take the lead in ad tech transparency

"P&G’s ad chief Marc Pritchard summed it up: “The days of giving digital a pass are over – it’s time to grow up. It’s time for action.”

However, agencies can only go so far if they are tied into contracts and relationships with non-transparent ad tech partners. It’s time for agencies to be bolder and hold all of our ad tech partners to the highest levels of transparency.

Clients now have more authority than ever to demand transparency from their agencies. So, why then, has trust between advertisers and agencies declined in these past two years?"

WPP's news is not a surprise... Those consequences of industry changes/challenges, I mean industry shifts!!... More direct relationships...

The largest advertiser P&G... "$750m savings in agency fees and production costs"


"Digital media and tech vendors have become more transparent since P&G began crusading against online supply chain failures a year ago, said CFO Jon Moeller. And with this transparency, it's clearer and clearer to us that there are additional ways to eliminate waste."

"Even with P&G's digital ad pullback last year, improved targeting and media relationships helped the world's biggest ad spender reach 10% more people in 2017 than it did the previous year."

"P&G trimmed its global agency roster last year from 6,000 to 2,500, and expects to cut about half of the remaining agencies in 2018, Moeller said. The cuts translated to $750 million savings in agency fees and production costs in 2017, likely growing to more than $1 billion in agency reductions by the end of this year."
