Addressability at scale (AAS) is defined as the opportunity to create competitive advantage
through the ability to deliver targeted, personalized experiences to consumers.

Addressable Platforms
Enabling Audience Platforms give us control of the message
and when it is delivered
An Audience Platform is a digital technology that enables automated,
targeted, personalized experiences to individuals (known and anonymous)
at scale utilizing first and/or third party data

New competencies are required to take advantage
Marketers must evaluate their own
competency level and decide how best to fill
gaps internally and with external expertise
In the highly digitized world of AAS, a
new set of competencies must be
attained by the marketer
We call the personification of those
collective skills The Platform Marketer
While new processes, data, and
technologies must be implemented
(what we call Connected CRM),
these digital platform competencies
must first be addressed

Editor's Notes

  1. This breaks down for several reasons: Targeting ability changes based on media, audience platform, and audience identification (anonymous vs. known) No single engine can target across channels Different groups within the organization are often responsible for different product lines and channels (often with different optimization teams) Reality is need to work with multiple optimization engines DSPs, recommendation engines, personalization engines, audience propensity models, etc. How then to create a unified customer experience?
  2. This is the marketing technology stack that the Platform Marketer needs to exploit AAS
  3. Notes: Second party (partner) data can also be brought into DMP Some segment-level data can flow back in CRM DB from DMP. However, primary source of ad tracking data into the Marketing Database should be from the Ad Server.
