The new partnership between 4INFO and TiVo<\/a>, according to Jenkins, will allow brands \u201cto be able to use all of this viewership data that\u2019s been captured via traditional linear delivery models\u2026on a one-to-one basis at scale. It\u2019s not a panel, it\u2019s a whole bunch of households that you have actual viewership data on.\u201d<\/p>\nAs TV targeting, measurement and attribution continue to evolve, buyers fall into two camps: those still grounded in GRP\u2019s and those using addressable and connected for one-to-one targeting and measurement.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe try to treat them the same but have to talk to them completely differently,\u201d Jenkins said. \u201cOne of the biggest challenges we have is helping people who are traditional digital buyers who know how to buy what we sell work with traditional TV buyers who don\u2019t understand the measurement piece alone.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow are you making marketers better, faster stronger in regards to being able to deliver outcomes?\u201d asked Swartz.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur fundamental goal has been to make all of this TV viewership data and traditional linear television very accessible to programmatic and digital buyers and DSP\u2019s,\u201d said Horstman. \u201cThe uptick is happening. It\u2019s been a big education process.\u201d<\/p>\n
Amid comments about \u201cstone age\u201d TV versus more advanced digital media, Horstman said he believes broadcast linear TV still should serve as the foundation for media campaigns given the economics involved. That\u2019s because road-reach TV CPM\u2019s are still very efficient compared to more expensive, highly targeted buys, although a mix of both is appropriate.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s the way that as an industry we should be thinking about this. Understand the economics of what you get across all these different properties and learn how to get the most from them,\u201d said Horstman.<\/p>\n
Asked about the increasing complexity that accompanies advancements in TV targeting and attribution, Jenkins said that orchestration is everyone\u2019s responsibility. \u201cAt the end of the day, I guess the ultimate responsibility is with the brands. The brands need to really understand what\u2019s available, they have to push their agencies to be able to buy it, be able to explain it and they need to definitely hold platforms accountable to deliver it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Swartz wanted to know how, with so many constituencies vying for their place at the table, \u201cHow do we make the economics work for everybody?\u201d<\/p>\n
Horstman cited the recent report from the 4A\u2019s and the Coalition for Innovative Media Measurement showing the existence of \u201cat least twenty different companies in the TV attribution world. So all this data has now enabled a whole new industry.\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s up to the buy-side to look beyond the obvious incentives that sellers have to provide their own means of attribution and be able to attribute value to each link in the chain, according to Horstman.<\/p>\n
