What the OOH Specialists Say

 

OAAA Chief Marketing Officer Christina Radigan moderated an incisive conversation with OOH specialists yesterday as part of the OAAA’s Lunchbreak series.  Some highlights.

Rapport President Chris Olsen on the cookieless future and out of home

It helps and hurts us.  In an Apple cookieless world…it’s going to drive some dollars out of online as last touch attribution models won’t capture that piece of it as effectively as it once did…However I don’t think there’s going to be a windfall coming to out of home because of that just yet, if we do see anything it’s probably going to be fourth quarter…There are some things working in our favor.  Facebook’s ad model is all pretty much cookie based.  So while the dollars might shift this year to google and youtube…next year when google goes cookieless that’s when we can really capture that share…Our mobile ID data pool is going to decrease.  It’s estimated that 50% of apple users are going to opt out.  That means we’re going to have 50% less mobile ID’s for that carrier which gets us to probabilistic modeling versus deterministic modeling…that’s kind of a setback.
