"We're fumbling around in the dark." Programmatic ad demand volumes plummeted in Europe when the General Data Protection Regulation took effect. A big reason for the upheaval: Google. After its acquisition by Chinese company Bytedance in November, lip-syncing app Musical.ly is ramping up its ad sales effort in order to attract more ad dollars beyond small influencer-based campaigns. Amazon has become a significant subscription driver for TV networks with over-the-top streaming channels, but networks say they aren't too concerned about ceding control to the tech giant. A lack of measurement standards has kept brand advertisers away from podcasting. Now, the industry is moving toward a standard, but that shift comes at a cost to podcast producers. This Friday is the early deadline for the Digiday WorkLife Awards. Submit your organization in categories like Most Innovative Culture, Most Passionate Employees, Most Collaborative Culture and more for the chance to showcase your company culture as the best in media and marketing. Cannes is coming. Navigate the week with our Cannes Briefing, a daily newsletter delivered during Cannes that provides highlights and lowlights from along the Croisette, invitations to exclusive events, from live podcast recordings to parties and panels, and much more. |
