Media Mix Models for Digital Display, Affiliate and Search with Tag Management

About the Session

Topic: Media Mix Models for Digital Display, Affiliate and Search with Tag Management

Marketers are discovering that attribution is the tip of the iceberg. To fully appreciate the  contribution that each form of media and marketing has on overall sales and profitability, marketers are turning to tag management vendors who can supply both an infrastructure for tag management as well as a common cookie for the purposes of unified reporting.  You can’t model media data without common reporting definitions and tag management is one way to simplify the aggregation of data into one warehouse. Publishers need to understand the desire of advertisers to allocate budgets optimally, and advertisers need to understand that media interaction effects exist, particularly between non-search media and search.  Consumers don’t spontaneously search for products and services. Searchers consume advertising messages and often turn to their favorite search engine, either in real-time or on a delayed basis.  This session will discuss some interesting ways to think about the media mix once there is a solid data set available.
