Piano and Digiday Announce Findings from the State of Direct Brand EngagementPHILADELPHIA, Oct. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Piano, the leading subscription commerce and customer experience platform, today announced the results of an original study "The State of Direct Brand Engagement." Digiday Media, in partnership with Piano surveyed over 100 brand and agency marketers to understand how they're making the transition to an increasingly cookieless world. The survey offers a snapshot of a marketing world on the cusp of the transition from reliance on third-party data, to a world in which first- and zero-party data use becomes both more sophisticated and widespread and content is critical to every brand. The survey found that while some marketers are proactively making the switch to post-cookie data strategies, the majority are still relying on third-party data, and many need new resources and content to help them create the authentic relationships that produce first-party data.
According to James O'Brien, head of Production at Digiday Media, where the Custom team partnered with Piano on the research: "The convergence of brands and publishers is a story Digiday has followed closely, and it's clear that the deprecation of third-party cookies will likely accelerate the alignment that's already underway. We're pleased to have surfaced some of the most recent ways that brand marketers are preparing to make the transition, and this study emphasizes how critical it is for brands to develop a post-cookie data strategy before the 2022 deadline." Piano empowers intelligent segmentation, cross-channel experience management, offer presentation, split testing, billing, customer care, and more.
