"Attention Economics is the science that the marketing world has desperately needed for at least the last decade. The SOV model, which relates market share to advertising spend, has been a fundamental principle in media planning, but its reliability has diminished due to digital media's impact. The discrepancy in the commercial value of exposures on different platforms has disrupted the correlation between extra share of voice and market share growth, highlighting the desperate need to incorporate Attention Economics for a more accurate media planning approach. This is why this book is so important."
