Twitter Chat: Measurement in Our New Era with Croud

#AWChat returns with our first Twitter chat of 2022! This week, Gabriela Carlos, Media Measurement Director at Croud, is on-hand to discuss how measurement works in a cookie-less world, business intelligence, and more!
Measurement will look very different than it has in the last decade. Instead of relying on third-party data and cookies, we’ll look to data modelling, deterministic data, and first-party data to target users and measure performance. #AWChat

First-party data can be used for optimization, targeting, closed loop measurement, etc. We typically develop a complete plan for clients to maximize their first-party data. At the base is a robust, fully integrated, data infrastructure, ensuring complete connectivity. #AWChat
