COMMUNITY, COMMUNITY, COMMUNITY!!!

We are in the new world where your community is where your value is, not in your follower count! We are seeing a massive change on how advertisers are working with creators and due to more resources and tools that advertisers have to track metrics and performance we are seeing advertisers quickly changing their budgets to focus on more creators who actually have a solid community.

Join the conversation as we take you through our experience with this right now!

Major Data Privacy changes are effecting Digital Advertisers around the world like we saw with Apple making significant changes to the privacy settings of its mobile operating system last year, allowing iPhone users to choose whether advertisers could track them.  Since Apple introduced the feature, a vast majority of iPhone users have opted to block tracking.

We talk with Ad-Tech Expert, James Prudhomme, who began his career at AOL and is now the Cheif Revenue Officer for Optable, a SaaS data connectivity platform designed for the advertising ecosystem in the age of privacy to discuss the following:

How are these changes effecting digital advertisers?
What data collection points are being collected and how are they used?
What data policy changes can we expect in the years to come?
