Get Back in the Driver’s Seat: Managing Your Own Digital Mix With DMPs

With trends in digital advertising constantly evolving, marketers need to find a reliable way to aggregate their customer data to target their most relevant audiences – and fast. Paul Dolan, Managing Director, North America of Xaxis, leads this session, detailing how the emerging technology of data management platforms (DMPs) consolidates all appropriate data sources into a centralized platform, offering marketers reliable and accurate audience profiles for better decision making when it comes to executing targeted campaigns. Dolan will examine how DMPs aid top brands in increasing ROI, eliminating wasteful ad spend and allowing CMOs to track, analyze and optimize campaign dollars across the entire digital mix. Examples of successful campaigns will also be used to illustrate this process.
