    &lt;h3&gt;ARF 360 Measurement Day Workshop&lt;/h3&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;Cross-Channel Communications Planning: Challenges, Issues, Perspectives &lt;br /&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://my.thearf.org/User/MyDownloads.aspx#360"&gt; 360 Measurement Day Presentations&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
    
    &lt;h5 class="program"&gt;&lt;a href="/assets/ad-week-2009"&gt;SPECIAL ADVERTISING WEEK SESSION&lt;/a&gt; &#8211; SEPTEMBER 22, 2009&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;New Directions in Marketing  Simulation, Scenario Planning, Comms Planning and Targeting&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Targeting has always been a primary ingredient in  creating better, more focused communications plans. Some of the approaches used  in the past to target, both online and offline, have been labeled as  socio-economic, geo-demographic, product purchase, psychographic, contextual,  behavioral, associative, etc. With advances in marketing mix modeling and the  advent of Touchpoints planning initiatives, the need to be able to create a  variety of &#8220;what-if&#8221; scenarios to identify the impact of different  media/marketing plans on different groups of consumers is pivotal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To underscore the value of targeting in the  Communications Planning process several industry leaders provided us with  strategic insights/case studies identifying how they addressed various client  targeting issues and/or how they helped their clients arrive at better  communications plans through &#8220;what-if&#8221; scenario planning.&lt;/p&gt;
