In our discussion, MSG and Marc discuss:
— Marc’s path from decision science and wireless startups into adtech entrepreneurship
— How years of experimentation shaped his thinking on attention and media measurement
— Why attention matters in advertising — and where it can go wrong
— The idea behind AU and measuring media quality, not just impressions
— How broken metrics created bad incentives across digital advertising
— How broken incentives, “lemon markets,” and cost-plus buying have pushed digital advertising into a race to the bottom
— Why publishers, agencies, DSPs, and SSPs all need a better common language for quality
— How AI may hurt low-quality content but strengthen quality publishing
— Moving from impressions and viewability toward a more durable media wide currency
And more.
