Advisory & Services

Strategic guidance from someone who's done it

Samuel Zniber brings 30+ years of hands-on media leadership to help companies navigate AI adoption, audience intelligence, and content strategy.

From strategy to execution

I work directly with leadership teams to solve the problems I've spent my career solving as an operator. No frameworks. No decks. Decisions and outcomes.

AI Readiness & Strategy

Assess your organisation's readiness to adopt AI for audience intelligence, content decisions, and competitive positioning.

  • AI maturity assessment
  • Data infrastructure audit
  • Build-vs-buy analysis
  • Implementation roadmap

Audience Intelligence

Design and deploy predictive audience modeling systems that tell you what your audience will do before they do it.

  • Audience segmentation strategy
  • Predictive modeling architecture
  • Content-audience fit analysis
  • Cross-platform measurement

Content Strategy

Use data-driven methods to optimise programming, editorial, and content decisions across radio, TV, streaming, and podcasts.

  • Programming optimisation
  • Content testing frameworks
  • Brand positioning audits
  • Launch strategy for new formats

Competitive Intelligence

Understand your competitive landscape with precision. Know what your competitors are doing and, more importantly, what they'll do next.

  • Market position mapping
  • Competitor content analysis
  • Audience overlap studies
  • Strategic scenario planning

Built for decision-makers

I work with the people who make the calls that shape how audiences experience media.

CEOs & Managing Directors

Media executives navigating digital transformation, AI adoption, and market positioning decisions.

Programming Directors

Content leaders who want to use data and AI to make better scheduling, format, and talent decisions.

Brand & Marketing Strategists

Teams that need to understand audiences at a deeper level to drive engagement and revenue.

How an engagement works

Every engagement starts with listening. No templates.

01

Discovery

We talk. I learn your market, your team, your constraints, and what keeps you up at night.

02

Diagnosis

I identify the real problems, which are often different from the presenting ones, and map out what's possible.

03

Strategy

We agree on a plan with clear priorities, timelines, and success metrics you actually care about.

04

Execution

I stay involved through implementation. Advisory without accountability is just opinions.

What makes this different

Operator, not consultant

I've run programming at major media groups across Europe, the US, and Australia. I give advice I'd follow myself because I have.

Builder, not theorist

I built MediaDatak and MusicDatak from scratch. I understand AI and data science at the implementation level, not just the strategy level.

Global perspective

30+ years across 5 continents, working with ARN/iHeartRadio, RTL Group, NRJ Group, Lagardere, and dozens of media brands.
