SAARF to eradicate myths

29 May 2012 11:21Submit a commentBizLike
Under newly elected chairperson Clare O'Neil, the South African Advertising Research Foundation (SAARF) board members, who represent all sectors of the media, marketing and advertising industries, have made a formal commitment to work together as a unified body in the best interests of this valuable industry resource.
"Our first commitment is to working as a collective and ensuring that despite any challenges, the foundation delivers world-class research," says O'Neil. "As part of this, we will be working to eradicate some of the myths which persist in the industry about the foundation, with all board members ensuring that they carry back the correct messages to their constituents. For example, the myths relating to the funding model need to be put to rest."

O'Neil says the board's second commitment is to the future of SAARF and its research products.

"We have set up a sub-committee tasked with future-proofing SAARF. Board members will consult with their stakeholder groups to identify any challenges relating to their future media research needs. The sub-committee will report back to the board with its overall findings, and provide monthly feedback about the work that is being done to future-proof the foundation."
