Walk through the new look certificates
Our new report for the Consumer Magazine sector marks a key step change in the delivery of our data, revealing new industry agreed Standards that simplify reporting and further support market growth.
At midday today, we released our first data report to incorporate major new updates to ABC Standards and reporting in the UK.
These changes are being rolled out initially for Consumer Magazines and Regional Publications. We've worked quickly to deliver these updates for these two sectors following in depth consultations with representatives from many of the UK's biggest media brands and highest spending agencies.
The changes highlight our key census metrics, incorporate graphs and charts for easy comparison and simplify reporting processes. This improved clarity and accessibility makes it easier for media buyers and owners to use this rich source of independently verified data in trading.
Some of the key developments you'll see in our new Consumer Magazine report and linked certificates include the introduction of simplified primary circulation categories and an updated definition for Actively Purchased', which now includes all copies purchased by an individual. The industry told us these were important trading metrics and we have highlighted them on the first page of the redesigned certificates and ABC's online interactive reports.
Certificates in the Newsbrands sector have already been updated with the new user friendly design for easy comparability across sectors.
You can view a full breakdown of the Standards changes for both the Consumer Magazine and the Regional Publication.
We're rolling out updated Standards for other media sectors and platforms throughout 2018, with agency and media owner consultations currently taking place in the Newsbrands and B2B sectors.
For Regional Publications, the first data to incorporate the updated Standards will be released at midday on Thursday 1st March 2018 (for the December-end 2017 reporting period.)
Simon Redlich, CEO at ABC, explained, These enhancements to our service come as a result of in depth consultation with agencies and publishers and a great deal of work from the industry groups that represent their interests. Our focus has been to actively support publishers' efforts to grow circulation whilst maintaining the trust that ABC stands for. We're delighted with the positive response to the changes made so far and are focused on delivering further improvements to ABC's service for other sectors and media platforms over the coming months.
Adam Crow, Head of Publishing at MediaCom, is chair of the ABC Consumer Magazines Reporting Standards Group (RSG). He said, ABC has worked closely with the industry to simplify its reporting whilst retaining the robust gold standard that we associate with the ABC stamp of trust. This is reflected by the new certificates which present each media owner's verified data in a clear and accessible format. He added, This will no doubt further enhance their role as one of the key industry measurements we rely on.
Duncan Tickell, MD Advertising and International at Immediate Media, is one of the media owner representatives on ABC's Consumer Magazines RSG. He said, ABC listened closely to the industry to refine its reporting standards and better reflect changing distribution methods and their value to advertisers. The new look certificates are a fantastic way for us to demonstrate growing brand reach, and make it easier to present the benefits of all our routes to market; something thats great for advertisers because they know they are looking at figures they can trust.
