London tourist destination Marketing ROI Case StudyMichael Wolfe
Shows how a small budget tourist destination in London was able to apply advanced marketing analytics to measure and inform themselves concerning their marketing ROI and effectiveness.
This case study highlights a campaign for Deutsche Telekom product, MagentaMobil Start. Working with MediaCom, they used the Adform full stack to create, deliver and analyse this extremely effective, cross-device campaign.
Marketing Mix Models In a Changing EnvironmentAquent
Marketing Mix Models have been used successfully for years at consumer package goods (CPG) companies to increase their marketing effectiveness and efficiency. The four Ps (Product, Placement, Price, and Promotion) were as far as the models needed to go. Broad–based media was and is very expensive, which kept competition to a minimum. However, the marketing environment has changed in many ways and must be considered when looking to these models to improve marketing performance.

ANA programmatic-financial-fog 22-5-17Brian Crotty
A new study of programmatic media trading was released last week. The study, entitled “Programmatic: Seeing Through The Financial Fog” is a joint initiative between the primary US advertiser trade group the ANA, its Canadian equivalent the ACA, Ebiquity (EBQ.L, N/R) and Ad/Fin, and was undertaken to investigate costs and economics of programmatic advertising ecosystem. The study is relevant to digital media technology owners large (i.e. Alphabet’s Google (GOOGL, Hold) and small (i.e. The Trade Desk (TTD, N/R), to digital publishers, agency holding companies including IPG (IPG, Hold), Omnicom (OMC, Hold), Publicis (PUB.PA, Hold) and WPP (WPP.L, Hold) and providers of measurement and data services such as Nielsen (NLSN, Hold) because of the benchmarks the study provides and because of the implications the study suggests about the industry’s evolution.
Given that in 2013 the industry drove some 10% of the
UK’s eCommerce traffic and commanded a marketing
spend of £1bn according to the PwC / IAB OPM study
(see page 6), it’s a permanent (and growing) feature
of integrated digital marketing programmes. In
fact it’s a channel that exemplifies just how digital
is merging marketing and sales channels.
Affiliate Marketing is not a ‘channel’. Rather it’s an
advertising objective. Affiliate campaigns deploy
most digital advertising and marketing disciplines
including email, display, content, search, social
media and audience targeting. It works across mobile
platforms, uses programmatic methods and is now
establishing exciting offline opportunities for digital
marketers. Affiliate data is packed with audience
and customer insight providing marketers with
customer journey and point-of-sale perspectives
that enrich standard advertising analytics.
This handbook, the work of the IAB’s Affiliate Marketing
Council, exposes the industry’s diversity and even
if you thought you knew affiliate marketing, you’ll
probably be surprised by some of the marketing
opportunities mapped out in these pages. If
you’re new to digital or haven’t used affiliate
marketing before, this handbook will help you
understand the industry’s value and mechanics.
Overall, this handbook represents one of the fastest
growing digital marketing channels which many of
the UK’s top advertisers recognise as highly effective
and are thus increasing their investment in. This
isn’t simply because its yields are extraordinarily
high (14:1 ROI); it’s also because it’s a flexible
and creative space to work within that touches
customers throughout the marketing funnel.

Attitudes to Programmatic Advertising Report 2019
IAB Europe’s annual Attitudes to Programmatic Advertising Report is a comprehensive analysis of the European programmatic landscape, covering strategies and adoption trends, drivers of and barriers to growth, and forecasts for the future for 31 markets. The study, now in its fifth year, was developed by the IAB Europe Programmatic Trading Committee. The key findings of the 2019 study include:
There is a continued push for a quality and safe advertising environment
Ads.txt is well established amongst publishers but awareness and adoption on the buy-side is low
Talent and skills remain a barrier to investment
Supply chain transparency is still an issue
The number of advertisers with in-house operations for programmatic is now higher than the number that outsource to an agency
Programmatic continues to be a catalyst for delivering brand campaigns at scale
In light of GDPR, stakeholders are looking to use more first party data, private marketplaces and contextual targeting

European programmatic trading continues its double-digit growth, increasing an impressive 76% from April 2014 to April 2015, thanks in large part to steep climbs (333%) in spending for brand formats. From 1Q14 to 1Q15, ad spend jumped 119% as advertisers dedicate bigger portions of their budget to programmatic channels.

Iab europe attitudes towards programmatic advertising report june 2016IAB Europe
Attitudes towards Programmatic Advertising:
Nearly all stakeholders including strategists, planners, buyers and operational teams across the digital ecosystem are embracing programmatic advertising and building on its potential for value creation. With only 13% of advertisers, 8% of publishers and 7% of media agencies claiming that they are not using programmatic technology, the study shows that almost everybody in the industry is now deploying some form of programmatic advertising.
Respondents named a reduction of media wastage and greater cost and trading efficiencies as the most important impacts of programmatic. The research also highlights growing recognition among the industry that as programmatic matures, it contributes to key advertising objectives such as scaling mobile campaigns and reaching consumers more effectively with branding messages.
Greater integration with wider ad measurement models and increasing sophistication beyond the click are other two other key factors driving programmatic adoption.
With benefits clearly recognised and cited in the research, and emergence of proven models, programmatic adoption is likely to continue to grow. Indeed, all stakeholders remain optimistic about the outlook of programmatic with over 90% of them citing an increase in investment over the next 12 months.
But the benefits are accompanied by challenges, and significant barriers to adoption remain. The biggest bottleneck is finding the people with the right skills and experience to navigate this brave new world successfully.
For the first time the research looked at the operational models used to execute programmatic and there is a clear evolution of programmatic strategy across markets. Advertisers start out on their programmatic journey with an independent specialist, then move to an agency or DSP and then in mature markets adopt an agency or hybrid model, i.e. a combination of more than one strategy. Similarly, publisher strategies are evolving; they start out with a hybrid model, then lean more heavily on their SSP and finally bring the expertise in-house. For agencies, the in-house agency trading desk remains dominant.

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

2. Client Situation and Challenges
Ticket sales for a major tourist destination had stabilised whilst marketing spend which started pre-
launch had continuously edged upwards across a broad mix of channels.
The challenge for the client management team was to understand:
1. The extent to which media investments in driving visitors and ROI
2. Media saturation and diminishing returns
3. Long term brand building effects from media spend
4. How to grow ticket sales by optimising spend allocation
Objectives
Build a predictive econometric model to evaluate the financial ROI of media spend in driving ticket sales
for the brand X tourist destination.
A secondary objective was to provide guidance on how a reallocation of spend across media channels
will help to increase tickets sales and revenue into 2014.
Please note: all data points have been altered to preserve client confidentiality
3. Overall Media contributions
Overall, media and marketing have contributed to around 22% of ticket sales revenue. Of this,
online paid and owned (website) media have contributed 5%. Offline media channels have jointly
contributed to the remaining 5%. Long term media carryover effects are evident accounting for
12%.
Baseline sales driven by
seasonality, inbound &
domestic tourists, city
events and consumer
confidence.

4. Overall Media contributions over time
Grand opening
Pre-opening marketing and media generated a heightened level of exuberance and a long term
effect from media and marketing.
Significant long term

5. Full Media Spend Optimisation – Constant Spend
This optimised allocation will lead to a 5.2% increase in ticket sales. This solution suggests cutting back
on TV and outdoor and reallocating that same spend on other media channels. Any website related
spend should be focused on search optimisation. Annually, this represents approximately 32,166 more
ticket sales. At stable prices and economic conditions, this would approximate to £771,973 of additional
revenue.
£1,639,139 £1,639,139
6. Guidance on future integrated media execution
43%
Using our simulated modelling results we have assessed media interactions and the resultant payoff. This
insight provides us with steer into future integrated campaign executions.
49%
Outdoor and local Press are most effective
when activated together. There is about a
+43% synergy or additional lift due to
simultaneous activation.
Online and Radio are most effective when
activated together. There is about a +49%
synergy or additional lift due to simultaneous
activation.
7. Modelling Accuracy and Forecast Validation
Model accuracy is measured by R2 – this is measure of the variation in actual sales that is explained by the modelled
series in Red.(pooled)
Our final econometrics model has produced a very accurate representation of actual historic ticket
sales. We held out 10% of the data to test for forecast validation which is also very high.
Overall Model
Accuracy is 98%
Model Forecast Validation
Accuracy is 97%

and Aug 2013.
