IAB & MPA Present…Magazines are Dead PIX & VIDEO
View the video - thanks to http://www.silverlinemedia.tv
View review thanks to StopPress
What happened to the days where magazines were jam-packed of advertisers and weighed as much as a brick? Thanks to a shift and focus on alternative media (aka the Internet), advertisers have slashed, cut and eliminated many of their print advertising budgets.
Or does digital just need to get off their holier than thou high horse and accept that magazines are here to stay?
The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) and Magazines Publishers Association (MPA) brought top industry experts together for a good ole fashion debate on whether Magazines are Dead
DEBATE TEAMS
Affirmative
Siobhan McKenna, Mediaworks
Tom Osborne, wag the dog
Michael Gregg, Trade Me
Negative
Vincent Heeringa, HB Media
Sahil Merchant, Mag Nation
Mike Hutcheson, Image Centre Group
Chair: Paul Dykzeul (CEO of ACP)

IAB May Auckland Breakfast Seminar
How to Create Online Ads That People Don’t Hate
$200 million was spent on online advertising in New Zealand in 2008. But what percentage of those thousands of ads were effective? How many were ignored, or, worse still, annoyed the very consumers they were supposed to persuade?
In our May breakfast seminar, our guest presenters will share their insights into balancing of the needs of your website visitor while maximising advertising revenue. They’ll present the results of reviewing nearly 50 academic papers and research reports, and provide recommendations from real-world experience of online advertising in New Zealand.
Find out:
• Ways to ensure your online advertising is effective
• How to create a culture of measurement
• How to draw attention to your ads without frustrating your website visitors
• Whether text links work better than graphical ads
• The future of online advertising in New Zealand
Guest presenters: Trent Mankelow (Optimal Usability) and Mike Pethig (Ad Protocol)
When: Tuesday 26 May, 7.30-9.30am
Where: Prime Bistro, 188 Quay Street, Auckland

Marketing Now April 15-16
You know your audience is online. It's online they do their research, participate in online communities and it's increasingly online where they purchase products and services.
Online marketing is more than just having a great website. If you build it, they won't just come. And we're not talking about banner ads or pay per click. Search engine optimisation, building brand advocates, engaging the public via social networking sites and getting key influencers to talk about your products/services are just some ways social media and online marketing can help increase business and market your messages. It's also measurable using web analytics providing a clear ROI.
The old spray and pray approach of mass advertising doesn't work anymore and is prohibitively expensive. We fast-forward over TV commercials, channel surf through radio ads and are impervious to print ads. Marketing has changed from 'push' to 'pull'.
Wellington is hosting the first training and education event on Social Media and Online marketing and PR in NZ. The two-day event will be held at Te Papa on April 15/16. International experts in the field of social media, SEO, online communities and online PR and marketing will present and deliver interactive seminars and workshops, and attendees will leave with actionable strategies to implement to their businesses.

IAB Upskill Sessions 1.0 5-7 March 2009
Online and interactive mediums are undeniably the fastest growing advertising channels in NZ and around the world. Although there are many established practices - they constantly evolve; new formats, new technologies, new pricing models, new metrics and even more jargon!
It is understandably hard to keep up. Thankfully the The Interactive Advertising Bureau can help you and your team with a course that teaches all the basics, as well as the latest techniques and terminology, so that you’re making the most of online advertising opportunities.
The IAB NZ Upskills series of practical two and a half day hands-on workshop sessions are designed to lift skills in Interactive Advertising no matter what your background.
This first session (1.0) is designed for those new to online advertising. It’s an Interactive Advertising 101 structured around a live brief from a Top tier advertiser that has never advertised online before. The attendees may be as new to interactive advertising as the client and the course is a fun way for everyone to add some real value to a campaign that will actually be implemented (out of the winning presentation at the end of the course) across IAB NZ member sites and platforms.
Top industry mentors will be available throughout the course to teach, coach and assist teams of five to understand, dissect and construct a winning pitch back to the client on day three. Attendees could be from agencies, publishers, service providers and marketers with or without traditional media experience.
Check for "special association rates" for our partner associations, such as CAANZ and the Marketing Association, when you register.
Mentors & coaches are...
Adam Good - Director of Digital Innovation - Clemenger Group
John Schofield - Managing Director - Catch Media

In a world where your consumers don’t watch much TV, hardly listen to any radio, and when they do, might flip through your commercials - we face a multitude of challenges with traditional marketing strategies. In this constantly evolving world we now have the ability to ‘interact’ and ‘engage’ with the customer rather than for marketing to continue being a one way monotonous broadcast.
Bright*Star brings you a one-day conference addressing crucial issues related to Interactive Marketing. Begin exploring these very opportunities at the Interactive Marketing Summit 26 May 2008 at Hyatt Regency, Auckland.

I-COM 2 - 2nd International Conference on Online Media Measurement
Barcelona, February 5th-8th, 2008
The Digital Media industry has undergone staggering growth in the last few years, accompanied by an increasingly complex measurement challenge. While some are still trying to understand comparability between the Web and some forms of traditional print and broadcast media, emerging media and devices have already changed how people use online sites to search, read news or participate in social networking. With the ability to access services from televisions, mobile devices or even game consoles, to timeshift when downloading music and podcasts to listen to later and to install widgets and RSS feeds, the increasing fragmentation of Digital Media is making it more and more complex to measure and monetise online activity
At the International Conference on Online Media Measurement (I-COM), to be held 5-8th February, 2008 in Barcelona, delegates will explore the latest online measurement issues facing the Digital Media Industry, with the goals of international cooperation and understanding, information sharing and working toward consensus on best practices across media platforms and different forms of measurement.
This unique event has been conceived with the participation of the international bodies representing the most influential participants in the Digital Media industry:
- CAA (Chinese Advertising Association)
- EACA (European Association of Communication Agencies)
- EGTA (Association of Television and Radio Sales Houses)
- EIAA (European Interactive Advertising Association)
- FEDMA (Federation of European Direct & Interactive Marketing)
- IIAB Europe (Interactive Advertising Bureau)
- IAB US (Interactive Advertising Bureau)
- IFABC (International Federation of Audit Bureaux of Circulations)
- MMA (Mobile Marketing Association)
- OPA Europe (Online Publishers Association Europe)
The conference will be held in English. Conference program and venue information are available at http://www.i-com.org.
NOTE: IAB New Zealand members qualify for a special conference registration price. Please note on the registration if you register for the conference.

Wellington Christmas Party
The Wellington Interactive crowd turned out in force on Dec 11th on a balmy summer night to enjoy a few Xmas drinks and the sounds of Uncle Monkey - who had people up and dancing all night.
Good food, good company and good music made the night a great success, so thanks to our co-sponsors for the evening - Yahoo!Xtra and Nielsen Online (the new name of Nielsen//Netratings).
We were a little slow getting around to taking photos ... sorry, but it was nice out on the balcony with a beer. But here are some in case you've forgotten what you did that night.
