We\u2019re heading towards the end of the year \u2013 and what a turbulent one it\u2019s been.<\/p>\n

The hope for 2023 is stability and growth, but that\u2019s only possible if we take the right steps towards it.<\/p>\n

How to build a successful <\/span>measurement plan for 2023<\/b><\/h2>\n

With the death of cookies looming, the most important part of your measurement plan for next year, without a doubt, has to be focusing on increasing your first-party data. In a time where privacy is becoming more valued, we need to change the metrics we\u2019re measuring and how we\u2019re measuring them. Google Analytics 4 is an adapted version of the current Google Analytics with the intention of preserving measurement in the face of privacy changes \u2013 we need to switch to GA4 technology and start using it for measurements in order to avoid any data loss. We\u2019ll also discuss whether you\u2019re measuring the right metrics \u2013 ones that reflect true value to your business \u2013 and how to account for the effects offline insights, such as phone calls and in-person interactions, on your business\u2019 success.<\/p>\n

Marketers, pay more attention to <\/span>attention<\/b><\/h2>\n

We need to start factoring in how much time and attention people are paying to ads. The more time people spending viewing your ad, the stronger their brand recall is, which is essential for brand awareness. The first step to gaining attention is making sure your ads can actually be viewed by everyone, and beginning then to measure active attention metrics, rather than purely CPMs.<\/p>\n

Advertising spend is projected to slow on the whole, but is likely to increase in connected TV more than any other channel. B2B is one of the few categories projected to grow in ad spend, so it\u2019s important to continually review which channels you\u2019re investing budget in. You\u2019ll find a deeper analysis of ad spend predictions in the report.<\/p>\n
