The Role of Maps in an Era of Sophisticated Location Targeting
It’s a hot bed of real-world data
“Our advertising partners often wonder, who is actually clicking on their ads? Where are their customers coming from? And how does this compare with the population of the US?”
eMarketer’s Yory Wurmser taps Peter Lenz, Dstillery’s Senior Geospatial Analyst, for his expertise on the power of location-based advertising and the importance of data providers having fresh data. “You need to be vetting how good their location data is and how far back they’re looking at it.
