ADVANCED APPLICATIONS OF ATTENTION METRICS WITH COCA-COLA

As attention matures from tactic to strategy across global marketing practices, several leading advertisers are paving the way for marketers. The Coca-Cola Company has been on the cutting edge of attention measurement since 2020 when its Swiss line of business partnered with MediaCom and Adelaide to prove attention metrics could help reduce advertising waste. Since then, Coca-Cola has leaned into more advanced applications to develop media planning and buying solutions that drive better outcomes.

Greg Pharo, Senior Global Director of Marketing Effectiveness for The Coca-Cola Company, will join Marc Guldimann, founder and CEO of Adelaide, to discuss how Coca-Cola is building a strategy around attention. They’ll share results from tests correlating attention to outcomes, how Coca-Cola is incorporating attention metrics into programmatic buying, and the impacts of AI-powered attention metrics on the media industry.

THE FUTURE OF BIG DATA: A PEOPLE-POWERED PANEL

It takes a unique mix of people-powered measurement and big data science to truly deliver an accurate and unbiased representation of viewers. Big data from set top boxes and Smart TVs is not a complete or accurate representation of viewed content.  While big data provides scale, real consumer behavior can only be captured by people-based panels.  In this session, we will discuss how only panels composed of real people can calibrate big data, rooting out the inherent bias of big data sources, ensuring every voice is heard.

THE YIN AND YANG OF CONNECTED MEASUREMENT: DETERMINISTIC + PROBABILISTIC

As the digital world inches toward a third-party-cookieless existence, marketers find themselves hyper-focused on first-party and other deterministic identity solutions. But today’s emphasis may leave marketers overlooking the power of a blended approach: deterministic and probabilistic. In the new world of cookieless identity, this measurement synergy can create new possibilities for people and brands to connect. A holistic approach allows marketers to optimize at audience, message, and channel levels and bring valuable insights across the entire marketing ecosystem.

THE NEXT GENERATION MEASUREMENT: INTEGRATING CUSTOMER & EXPERIENCE MEASUREMENT AND ANALYTICS THROUGHOUT YOUR ORGANIZATION

In this new world, we must rethink business relevance by moving beyond traditional marketing metrics, to experience and business metrics that enable us to leverage analytics to drive business results. How can we elevate customer metrics into shared goals across the organization? How can we broaden engagement and utilization of analytics across different functions? Elevating metrics and analytics ensure that measurement and accountability is not only integrated across the organization, but also more inclusive in its approach, application and impact.

CHANGING THE GAME

Ads in video games have long been hated by gamers, and for good reason: traditional in-game ads are disruptive to the overall gaming experience. Video games are cinematic-like experiences. If you want to win over gamers, you must seamlessly integrate ads into the gaming environment without compromising the creative integrity of the game. Frameplay’s Chief Strategy and Operations Officer Cary Tilds will demonstrate how intrinsic in-game ads achieve this, and how brands can maximize coveted metrics like attention, viewability, brand lift, and performance measurement with in-game ads.

THE ROLE OF INNOVATION AND MEASUREMENT IN A PERPETUALLY CHANGING MEDIA LANDSCAPE

The media landscape used to change at a pace of about one major innovation per decade - and even that was too fast.  Now change is perpetual.  How can brands navigate the new terrains without losing their core fundamentals?  In this presentation, Dr. Varan outlines an approach built on delivering best-in-class measures to a brand's key communication objectives rather than allowing their objectives to be shaped by vendor products on offer.  In this context, Dr. Varan will discuss attention, emotion, context, addressability, and more.
