Forces
of Change: The Unreachables
The Unreachables.
Who are The Unreachables? They’re a growing audience of people who aren’t tracked—and therefore can’t be targeted or measured—with traditional tools and platforms. They consume media on mobile devices and OTT. They’re “cord cutters” and “cord nevers.” And they represent tremendous buying power for brands.
The stakes are high—47% of Millennials and Gen Xers appear “unreachable” within standard planning tools, and 66% of their media consumption isn’t tracked, either.
How Marketers Are Missing a Generation of ‘Unreachables’.
Traditional, panel-based approaches to measurement are old-school technology, designed for old-school media. In this column, Hearts & Science CEO Scott Hagedorn explains the origins of The Unreachables.

It's pretty scary. We are not reaching young audiences effectively, just over-indexing on older viewers on TV," Hearts & Science CEO Scott Hagedorn tells AdAge in this article, which explores Millennial and Gen X media consumption habits. To be successful, Hagedorn says, marketers have to think creatively not only to reach millennials and Gen Xers, but also to make the most of the opportunity when they do.

She used the industry standard planning tools, and did all of the work as she should, then came in, and said, 'Hey, I’m in the target, but this looks like a foreign media plan to me, I don’t watch any of these programs, I don’t consume content this way.”
