Digital advertising is becoming less effective as click-through rates decline. Only a small portion of internet users, around 8%, account for the majority of clicks on display ads. Additionally, heavy clickers are not representative of the overall online population in terms of their internet usage. However, digital advertising can still be effective for branding when measured by lift in awareness, purchase intent, favorability, and other metrics. It is also comparable to TV advertising in terms of driving sales, when accounting for frequency of exposure. The future of digital advertising effectiveness lies in more relevant metrics beyond clicks and the use of rich media formats with fewer ads to improve the user experience.
The document outlines 7 rules for mobile advertising. Rule 1 is that mobile is immediate. Rule 2 is that mobile is the shadow of the consumer.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
