Form a Joint Industry Committee to develop OOH metrics: Tony Jarvis

In Viewpoints By M4G Bureau - May 26, 2014

Most mature OOH markets around the world have adopted their own audience measurement and rating currency with great success. Time is rife for the Indian OOH industry to take similar recourse. Global advertising and research architect Tony Jarvis, Proprietor & Research Architect at Olympic Media Consultancy, asserts that the Indian OOH industry should lose no time in developing and launching an OOH audience measurement and rating currency, while being aware that the metrics will evolve as per industry requirements. Jarvis advocates a step-by-step approach toward building, enhancing and including the currency. In an exclusive interview with Rajiv Raghunath of Outdoor Asia, he says the measurement system will become more refined and multi-layered as it gains wider acceptance. Jarvis cites the adoption of a comprehensive OOH currency system in Australia to underline that once the teething troubles are sorted, the system will catalyse significant industry growth. The following are edited excerpts of the interview:
