A marketing industry which has traditionally measured proxy metrics that came prior to a hard-to-see eventual purchase now needs to change to consider the end goal as its prime destination.<\/p>\n

That is according to one man whose primary medium has not always been considered adept at measuring through to actual consumer purchase – but, for Dan Riess, TV is learning new tricks.<\/p>\n

“(Marketers’) job is now a lot more focused as a marketer on the end business result … as well as the actual campaign brand lift performance that we’re used to,” says Dan Riess, WarnerMedia EVP, Turner Ignite, in this video interview with Beet.TV<\/p>\n

“A lot more of the work we do with our partners is around measuring the end business outcome. There’s a small handful of deals and partnerships that we do which are actually where we’re guaranteeing that business outcome.”<\/p>\n

Many publishers these days are beginning to price ads based on outcomes – say, purchase or store visitation – that they know for sure are discoverable.<\/p>\n

That is because, in the world of multi-channel digital signals, consumers are leaving breadcrumb trails across everything they do. Smart technology can link those breadcrumbs through to their end point – and trace back to an originator that may have led the cause to some effect.<\/p>\n

For Riess, the secret sauce is AT&T. The former telco infrastructure company, after acquiring WarnerMedia incorporating Turner, is now a media power house with several TV networks, a mobile network and, in AppNexus, ad-tech infrastructure under its belt.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, AT&T’s Xandr unit, dedicated to facilitating advanced TV ads, is driving offerings across the group.<\/p>\n

“The way we do that is increasingly through the data we have with AT&T,” Riess adds. “Obviously our corporate owner who can measure a lot of things about audience behavior and purchase. They are the ones who collect the AT&T data set for advertising use and help us access it.<\/p>\n

“We also use third parties in certain cases depending on the category and what the client is trying to learn.”<\/p>\n
