What Advertisers Think

}

The increasing availability and complexity of consumer data is driving a corresponding increase in the supply of data analysis platforms and partners, according to a survey of ad execs conducted for MediaPost.

The study, conducted by Advertiser Perceptions in June, found that nearly three-quarters (71%) of ad organizations now have relationships with two or more data platforms/providers, and 22% expect it to increase in the next six months.

The top reasons cited by ad execs for boosting their supply of data analysis partners are the volume of data they must contend with (69%), the complexity of the data (41%), and the inability of their organization to integrate various forms of data in a manageable way (24%).
