Mercurial Behavior, Competition & Visibility: Navigating Today’s Complex Customer Journey

The world continues to move into its “new normal.” The ad industry as a whole pretty much agrees it will never go back to the way it was pre-COVID, but is this roller coaster ride finally over? Unfortunately not. Tracking and targeting continues to be a challenge with the changing availability of data. Consumer shopping habits are more complex than ever. Instead of simply searching keywords, shoppers are asking questions and using multiple channels to gather product information before ever even hitting the buy button. The traditional path to purchase is fragmented, and it often begins, and likely ends, on Amazon and other marketplaces. So how do brands compete?

At the annual December edition of MediaPost's Search and Performance Summit marketers and agencies will discuss how they’re solving the key challenges facing data driven performance media: lack of visibility of who and where they’re targeting, driving consumers to their website instead of competing marketplaces, and navigating multiple channels and increasing customer expectations.

We will explore:

Strategic planning across social, search, programmatic and OTT
Leveraging AI techniques for targeting data sets
Diversifying search beyond Google and Bing
Creative content and evolving the Tech Stack for a more personalized website search experience
Marketplaces: friend or foe? Exploring potential partnerships

For 15 years, the MediaPost Search and Performance Summit has kept data driven marketers ahead of the next industry curves. This December edition puts you in the center of change in the data driven ad economy.

About Search & Performance Insider Summit

The Search & Performance Insider Summit is a three-day event that brings together the brightest minds in Search marketing to share leading-edge information and experiences in a think-tank environment, while exploring new technology, strategies and tactics for the effective use of Search as a marketing vehicle. For the Summit we bring in 50 top Marketing and Ad Agency buyers responsible for Search marketing strategies and budgets to network, debate and share best practices about marketing using Search.

Attendance for the Summits are capped to ensure conversations, learnings and overall experiences are intimate, productive and highly useful. Each day is comprised of high-impact content sessions in the morning coupled with unmatched networking activities in the afternoons. We return each evening with Cocktail receptions, fine Dining experiences, and After-hours fun.

The end result is a highly unique format that's intimate, inclusive and memorable on all fronts - an experience that allows everyone the opportunity to build REAL relationships well beyond that of a simple exchange of a business card.
