New chief comes from News Corp
The Audited Media Association of Australia has appointed News Corp’s former marketing and strategy director for News Community Media as its new CEO.
Josanne Ryan has been with News Corp since 2006, and previously worked with ACP Magazines, Pacific Magazines and Fairfax Media. She takes up her new post immediately.
“Trust is at the heart of what the AMAA champions for the industry,” Ryan said in a statement. “The transparency and accountability of verified data, ensuring that advertisers and agencies can transact with confidence, remains vital to both print and digital media.
“I am excited by the opportunity of working with the AMAA board and the dedicated team to continue to evolve the AMAA’s services across all media platforms.”
AMAA chairman, Harley Slatter, highlighted Ryan’s wealth of media experience and strong understanding of the value of audited data as key reasons for her appointment.
“The focus for the organisation going forward is in evolving the media audit services to better meet the needs of members and the industry in an ever-changing landscape,” he added.
While approaching a customer in a shop and asking what you can help them with is Retail 101, how many of us actually enjoy being approached? Generally, you have to give the forced, fake smile and say, “Just browsing, thanks,” while screaming on the inside, “just leave me alone!” Maybe it’s just me?
Not a day passes by in the life of business executives where digital innovation or the prospect of disruption is not front of mind. This in turn, drives an unrelenting flow of questioning, discussion and strategy papers.
Unless you’ve been marketing under a rock, you’ll probably have questioned whether your media agencies are offering you transparency.
In Episode 10 of this new podcast series, BrandHook MD, Pip Stocks, talks with Country Road GM of brand and customer experience, Col Kennedy, about how brands enabling teams to support the customer no matter what they want to achieve is vital to the engagement equation.
