what we tell the

measure. I am more focused on expressions.”
Stan Sthanunathan, Vice President Marketing Strategy & Insights, The Coca-Cola Company
5. Always Buying the Latest Gadgets
Impression: Doing this because you want to be
known as either rich or an early adopter. It may
even be the case that you just want to have
something that other people don’t.
Expression: Buying gadgets because they help you
to do what you do more effectively. Buying them
could even be that you just…want them
(Key: whether people know you have them or not).

6. Chatting Up a Guy / Girl in a Bar

it just to show your friends your ‘abilities’ in this
department.

or girl and simply showing how you feel by
introducing yourself to them.

26. Summary
It’s not what they tell you – it’s what you need to know – know what
you need to know before you start looking for the data.
Separate out Impression measures from Expression measures –
Expressions are real earner media which are worth real dollars.
Impressions are planned targets.
Focus on the data not the tool – there are many many different /
good and bad tools for capturing data today – use the one that’s best
for your needs locally – but own the format you present the data in.
