MEASURING ATTENTION IN OOH

Attention measurement is increasing in popularity for media buying and optimization, and out-of-home (OOH) is now ready to be included in the mix. Similar to the methodologies behind attention metrics in other channels, billups' approach to attention in OOH uses digital and real-world data in its patented IP to understand consumer trajectories, estimating the likelihood to see and pay attention to the ad on an OOH unit. This data includes the number of OOH units in the viewshed, the angle and size of the unit, and how quickly the viewer is passing by foot or vehicle (dwell time).

Fitzco's Group Media Director, Connections Strategy, Kim Harrison and billups' Chief Technology Officer, Shawn Spooner, will share best practices for using OOH in a media plan, review the OOH attention scores from a recent campaign in the automotive category, and discuss how AI powers the tools used to measure attention and optimize creative.

DECODING THE B2B CUSTOMER JOURNEY: MARTECH'S SECRET SAUCE

The traditional B2B customer journey, focused on landing deals, has evolved dramatically in the SaaS era. Success is no longer singularly defined by a signed contract but by fostering continuous customer engagement, driving adoption, and unlocking lifetime value. In this session, SAP shares its evolving MarTech needs to meet these challenges head-on.

Learn how SAP is working to optimize the customer journey beyond contract signature and how that is changing MarTech's needs. Discover SAP’s vision for how MarTech should not only be able to enable effective lead generation, streamlined field sales processes, and conversion to booked opportunities, but also serve as the underlying basis of support to explore the next frontier: nurturing post-sales relationships to facilitate multi-persona engagement, ensure product adoption, and expand the solution footprint.

Whether it’s driving adoption or finding new demand generation channels, SAP shares how MarTech is the secret sauce for thriving in the customer-centric SaaS landscape.

Join us to decode how MarTech can transform every stage of your B2B customer journey.
