American companies are upping their spend on third-party data, despite industry-wide concerns over consumer privacy, according to a study from IAB Data Center of Excellence and Winterberry Group.
According to this research, US firms are projected to spend $19.2bn on third-party audience data, up 17.5% from last year. This year will mark the first time marketers will spend more on digital assets than on traditional, terrestrial data. Digital spend increased by 36.9% to $3.67bn. Terrestrial spend increased slightly to $3.62bn.
Investment in identity-oriented data increased by 50% to $850m.
“Many brands struggle with the sheer quantity and variety of data types that their marketing and customer service efforts are generating today. Identity-oriented data and solutions provide a means of helping organize this information so that brands can maintain a persistent understanding of who is in their addressable audience. That ultimately helps to drive better advertising experiences, [and it] provides a means for improving customer service and allowing for better, more responsible management of the underlying data so as to conform to changing regulatory needs and consumer expectations,” said Jonathan Margulies, managing director at Winterberry Group.
US companies spent $2.8bn on transactional data and $1.02bn on specialty or engagement data. The uptick in spend can also be attributed to the rise in programmatic advertising.
The research also notes that the implementation of GDPR and the coming California Consumer Privacy Act means advertisers are investing in data activation solutions that aim to boost transparency and accountability while delivering on brand safety.
The report divided spend on data activation in two categories: data and analytics. Firms spent $4.97bn on data management, processing, and integration, a 25% increase year-over-year. Firms spent $2.26bn on analytics, modeling, and segmentation, a 2.9% increase since last year.
