Identity 2021: Why Household-Level Targeting & Measurement Will Help Marketers Succeed in a Cookieless World

With the death of third-party cookies and new privacy regulations, marketers are left uncertain on how to navigate the new future of the digital advertising industry.

While marketers know these changes will impact their ability to execute targeted advertising, many believe it is a future problem. The truth is, we’re actually living in a cookieless present. Today, channels like CTV, browsers like Safari and Firefox, operating systems like iOS 14 and mobile apps are already cookieless environments. These changes have created a shift away from targeting and measurement at the individual level to the household level, where purchasing decisions are being made.

At our virtual event on June 10, we heard from representatives from across the advertising ecosystem, including Acxiom, Horizon Media, Magnite, Ogilvy, UM and Viant. They shared perspectives on how publishers, data providers, SSPs and DSPs are working together to prepare for today’s targeting and measurement challenges, as well as those yet to come.

The panel also discussed the importance of the household as a powerful clustered unit that drives the majority of purchase decisions and anchors brand affinity and why the Viant Household ID is one of the most scalable and sustainable currencies for the new programmatic digital universe – particularly because of CTV’s rise in popularity, changes in consumer behavior and the need to meet privacy demands.
