Abstract:
This paper reconstructs the history of the introduction of People Meters to Australia and New Zealand during 1989-1991. The rival multinational People Meter operators invested heavily in the race to secure contracts to provide ratings services in the antipodean countries but the currencies now' are a Nielsen system in Australia and an AGB system in New Zealand. The pathways to success for these operators were very different in each country.
