Simone Blakers: So here we've got out DMP on the right. This is where we've got cookies, and de-identified and anonymous data going on. We've got these abilities through all these channels on the right to look at behavioural data, and identifiers that are actually really important for retargeting and personalisation. But we don't yet have personally identifiable information. So on the right is usually the domain (DMP) of your media agency.
On the left here is our CRM; this is the data we know within our business. It can have postal information, email, phone numbers and contact information etc. Many systems are now bringing this together in a way that a customer data platform enables you through thinks like federated IDs, to actually match the data and to have a more unified view of the full customer journey, and the holistic customer behaviour.

Tim Rich, Head of Marketing at Toyota Finance Australia, speaks to ADMA about marketing in a constantly evolving digital environment, and how transparency is an opportunity for marketers to 'really help customers'.
