B.A.G Convergence Partners with Google to Enhance Engagement via Reader Revenue Manager
B.A.G Convergence, through its platform News24, has partnered with Google to implement Reader Revenue Manager (RRM). This tool addresses the need for effective data collection from readers, moving beyond traditional analytics. With RRM, the goal is to create a more engaging and personalized experience for users.
Enhancing Engagement with Reader Revenue Manager
News24 aimed to gain valuable insights into reader interests and preferences. Traditional survey methods often yield low participation rates, making it challenging to gather essential first-party data. RRM solves this issue by allowing seamless surveys during the reading experience.
Frictionless Data Collection
- RRM enables intuitive surveys within the reader’s journey.
- Readers can answer questions without navigating away from the content.
- Data collection resulted in over 300,000 responses.
This innovative approach offers News24 a substantial dataset to refine its content strategy and understand audience preferences better.
Actionable Insights and Audience Mapping
By leveraging targeted surveys aligned with significant calendar events, News24 can now:
- Identify Resonance: Understand topics that engage both nationally and regionally.
- Optimize Editorial Strategy: Use survey feedback as a guide for content creation.
- Drive Long-term Value: Deliver relevant content to foster loyalty among readers.
Commercial Empowerment for the Sales Team
The insights gained from RRM further empower the sales team. Key audience segments are now more visible, allowing for:
- Refined Advertiser Pitches: Tailored proposals based on confirmed reader interests.
- Aligned Client Solutions: Matching brands with specific audience segments to enhance campaign effectiveness.

Anurradha Prasad, Chairperson & Managing Director of B.A.G Network, noted, “As the global digital landscape evolves, News24 is adapting and keeping pace with innovation leaders like Google.” She emphasized that insights from Google’s RRM will improve their data-driven strategies.
