IV. ADVANCING SPONSORSHIP ROI MEASUREMENT (2:00-2:30PM)
The 2013 ANA/IEG Sponsorship Measurement Survey found that only 20% of marketers are satisfied with their ability to measure sponsorship ROI. As a follow up to the survey, ANA is working with Sequent Partners Consulting on developing guidelines and best practices for integrating sponsorships into marketing mix models or other ROI measurement tools. In this session, we will update ANA Sponsorship & Event Marketing Committee members on this multi-client learning initiative to advance the practice of measuring the financial return on sponsorship investments.
