MFM’s New York Localism Event to look at “Political Advertising – What Campaigns Want”

Media Financial Management Association (MFM) will host their first New York City Localism event of the year where Paul Winn, Partner, Smart Media/Advertising Analytics, will offer insights into Political Advertising – What Campaigns Want. The session will be held on Thursday, March 19 beginning at 8:30 am, at the Hearst Tower in New York City. The event begins with breakfast and concludes at 10:30 am.

The session will offer an overview of 2020 political spending, enumerate the top elections, states and markets; provide insights into spending by media type; offer trends and prediction; and finally offer updates on political spending to date.

“The political season is a roller coaster as exhibited by the Super Tuesday results,” said Mary M. Collins, president and CEO of MFM and its BCCA subsidiary, the media industry’s credit association. “Races can change on the spur of the moment driving changes in advertising schedules. Paul will educate our members on what to expect now as you work with campaigns at every level.”
