Key Findings
• Today, improving ROI, centralizing data and ad targeting are the top three reasons a marketer uses a DMP
• Industry executives (marketers and agencies) want DMPs to go beyond ad targeting. There is greater demand for a horizontally integrated platform that is cross-channel and provides a view into search, social, analytics and mobile
• First party data collection and media campaign optimization are viewed as the most valuable DMP features. Among 1st party data assets, email, media campaign and website data are seen as the most critical
• Respondents recognize the value proposition of a DMP but may be constrained by budget and resources; though marketing has increased control over technology budget
