The world of consumer packaged goods (CPG) marketing is bursting with growth opportunities for unique, compelling brands.

However, strategic marketers can use this to their advantage and create a smart plan that builds impact with their most qualified audiences.

You get what you pay for. This adage is considered way too infrequently in the world of digital advertising, especially programmatic. There is so much pressure placed on gaining efficiency, both in execution and cost, that marketers have begun to prioritize “added value” impressions over meaningful business results.

But efficiency, while important, does not equate to effectiveness.

So how can marketers change the narrative around programmatic CPMs? Read the article to find out.

The healthcare and pharmaceutical industry as a whole is pivoting toward data-driven, digital strategies. Events, provider education and patient treatment itself have shifted from being primarily in-person to blended online experiences.

Measuring the business impact of cross-channel digital campaigns can be complex and challenging given the additional restrictions when obtaining personal identifiable information (PII) and staying HIPPA compliant. However, using the proper tools and strategies, meaningful measurement is absolutely possible for healthcare brands.

The world of CPG marketing is both exciting and challenging. This category presents broad audiences that present major revenue opportunities for brands. But the competition is heavy, especially when you are competing with mega brands with mega budgets.

Establishing a marketing strategy that captures consumer attention in this crowded space can feel like an exhausting mountain to climb, especially for newer brands trying to make a name for themselves. But, with a focused approach that places the consumer at the center, CPG brands can break through the clutter and take market share.

Early entrants in the loyalty marketing space are seeing the enormous opportunity this data holds for their own companies as well as other brands looking to reach those same consumers. Furthermore, brand marketers without access to these robust customer databases are realizing they need to find long-term targeting solutions (and fast) as they face the impending challenges of the cookieless future.

Thus, retail media networks were born and have exploded, with a new solution seeming to emerge every other week. Read the article to learn what brands can learn from retail media’s success.

Marketing leaders across industries such as pharma, healthcare, financial services, and manufacturing have multiple stakeholders to consider when developing an effective marketing strategy.

On the one hand, as a marketer you have to influence business decision-makers and convince them that your product or service is superior to competitors’, offering greater value. On the other hand, you have to provide sufficient education to those decision-makers so they feel comfortable and competent enough to sell the offering to your other target audience: the consumer.

That relationship constitutes what marketers call a business-to-business-to-consumer (B2B2C) model. And that model can be daunting if you don’t have a recipe for success.

AI has grown from a tech buzzword to a part of the common vernacular in only a few years. In fact, 45% of corporate AI adopters reported AI technologies helped them establish a significant lead over competitors.

In a cookieless world, attribution is old news.

Let’s be honest: Multi-touch attribution (MTA) has always been challenging to pull off.  Even before Facebook and Apple walled off their data, there wasn’t enough impression-level data to build an accurate model. In fact, MTA models often yield eerily similar outputs to last-touch attribution, suggesting that budgets should shift toward retargeting and branded search tactics. That isn’t always the right recommendation.

To future-proof, it’s time to focus on incrementality: the measure of supplemental business results that a campaign drives in aggregate.

The primary effects of cookie deprecation will be audience targeting limitations and measurement specificity. Successful marketers will need new and better ways of understanding how customers make decisions, what leading indicators drive business outcomes and how to aggregate this data to understand directional success.
