Media ValueMeltwater

*October increase due to Hurricane Nate Coverage
Due to the inconsistencies of the media monitoring service, in Jan. 2017 our reporting changed to include only traditional advertising value equivalencies (or AVEs). Traditional coverage included TV, print, and radio. Digital was only reported through impressions. In Nov. 2017 we changed to a new provider (Meltwater), giving us accurate numbers within the digital platform, therefore 2018 figures can’t be compared with previous year, as we are using a completely different reporting metric.
