International benchmarking

Got a question? Come to us

egta members can contact the team each time they have a question related to television/video or radio/audio advertising. In so doing, they can benchmark themselves against other similar companies in Europe and beyond, and feed answers and learnings directly into their strategies and decision-making. The answers to members’ questions may be found in existing databases or by drawing on work carried out on a similar topic in the past. If not, egta conducts surveys either amongst the whole of its membership or, when appropriate, in smaller subsets of members.

How does it work?

egta works on a give and take basis. The results of surveys conducted by our team are made available to members who participated in the questionnaire.

If you your company did not participate in a given survey, you can request the empty questionnaire at all times, and we shall open the access to the full set of answers the minute you send us back your answers.
