As the industry pivots away from targeting based on IDs and personal data, brands need to find new ways to drive key business outcomes through personalized and high-performing digital advertising. Indeed recent research* has revealed that 78% of senior marketers are concerned or very concerned by the loss of cookies, whilst 61% feel the same about the disappearance of IDFAs. When questioned about what concerned them the most, 37% cited that it was a combination of factors including, the ability to effectively plan intelligent campaign strategies, run targeted and personalized campaigns at scale and effectively measure campaign performance.
