Great ideas shape content; strategy founded in thorough research shapes those ideas. On this week’s Brand Story, Inc., we’re joined by Bill Hague of Magid Associates, THE leader in media research and strategy consulting, to discuss content measurement, TV’s not-so-distant future, and what opportunities lie on the horizon.

Magid, if you haven’t heard of them, is a leading strategy consulting firm in the media space and almost all of their work with clients is informed by their customized consumer and B2B research insights. Bill and I have become friends over the past 10 years and meet several times a year to nerd out on media trends so today’s conversation is akin to our regular lunches. And we’re inviting you to grab a seat at the table and listen in.

From the C-suites of major media conglomerates to digital media publishers, marketing execs and digital media publishers, Bill and his team are on the inside compiling significant research and advising on how to navigate the raging rapids of the content business.
