IAB Ireland Virtual Workshop – Digital metrics and decision-making

Digital metrics and decision-making

An IAB Ireland Virtual Workshop, facilitated by Steve Thompson, Digital Consultant and Trainer.

Whether you’re working for an advertiser, an agency or a publisher, this two-hour virtual workshop will explore the latest views on digital marketing measurements and metrics:

• • A workshop looking at the latest views on digital marketing measurements and metrics, the role of biases and heuristics in decision-making and the fallacy of KPIs.
  • We will look at probabilistic and deterministic decision-making along with ‘Goodharts Law’, ‘Campbells Law’, ‘the Observer effect’, the role of attribution modelling, correlation and causation, and the challenges that digital marketers face in measuring the true effects of digital advertising.
  • Is digital marketing on a continuous learning curve and suffering from the Duning-Kruger effect?  Will artificial intelligence help us to find the truth in digital metrics?
  • In a post-cookie GDPR world, what metrics will be available to marketers and how can marketers measure the performance of brand and performance marketing budgets?
    • Marketing teams
    • Digital Sales teams
    • Agency teams
