Source: CAB compilation of strADegy Data.
NOTE: This CAB report obtained data from StrADedgy for the first time. Prior reports were based on AdSPender. Both StrADedgy and AdSpender are owned by CMR. The difference in the two databases is simply that StrADegy includes all advertiser spending, unlike AdSpender which excluded those spending less than $250,000. This accounts for the minor differences between figures for ‘01/’02 in this report and those of last year’s report.
