Marketers are being told to stop buying media on CPM. But is that actually good advice?

This week, Elena and Angela are joined by Chief Media Officer Catherine Walstad and Chief Analytics Officer Matt Hultgren to dig into one of advertising's most debated metrics. Together, they break down why CPM still matters, where the low-CPM-equals-bad-media logic breaks down, and what actually signals media quality.

  • [01:30] Research on the true cost of dull media
  • [06:00] Why TV outperforms digital on cost per attentive second
  • [07:00] Should marketers stop buying on CPM?
  • [11:00] Where low CPM signals bad inventory, and where it doesn't
  • [16:00] How to identify high-quality media
  • [21:00] Why CPM is king at Marketing Architects
