Last chance to help Marketing Week, ISBA and IPA benchmark marketing effectiveness
The deadline to take part in the Marketing Effectiveness Roadmap is fast approaching. It will provide a model for any company looking to improve its marketing effectiveness practices, as well as “useful ammunition” for conversations with the C-suite.
Marketing Week is teaming up with ISBA and the IPA on an industry-wide survey to better understand marketing effectiveness best practice.
Building on last year’s IPA Effectiveness Culture Monitor, which has been rebranded as the Marketing Effectiveness Roadmap, it will provide a benchmark for brands and agencies to compare company performance against the industry as a whole, as well as guidance on how to boost the effectiveness of work.
The Marketing Effectiveness Roadmap will do two key things for businesses, ISBA’s head of media effectiveness and performance Clare O’Brien explains.
“It engages the wider organisation beyond marketers, and it also provides marketers with an excellent set of progress points and positional data that informs constructive internal discussion at a very practical level,” she says.
“Accurate, actionable, marketing effectiveness measurement needs the full weight of the business behind it to fully deliver.”

Conducted by IPA Effectiveness Leadership Group consultant Nick Milne, founder of Go Ignite Consulting, the 10 minute survey asks participants about the effectiveness practices and attitudes in place at their own organisation.
The subsequent analysis will inform the wider IPA Effworks initiative.
The IPA’s director of marketing strategy, Janet Hull OBE, says the survey will provide a “clear model” for any company looking to improve its marketing effectiveness practices and “useful ammunition” for conversations with the C-suite about how to make improvements.
“We’re inviting as many brands and agencies as possible to take part and welcome submissions from a range of different stakeholders in each organisation in order to help give a more rounded picture,” she says.
Anyone who completes the survey before 22 June will receive a free top-line summary comparing their organisation to industry benchmarks.
A detailed bespoke report with additional analysis and insight on responses from across their company will also be available to purchase from £100. Samples can be downloaded from the IPA website.
