How Poor Quality Data Impacts Marketing Decisions

In this masterclass, Veracity CEO, Nigel Bridges, discusses the problem of unreliable marketing data.  Nigel reveals the true extent of the cost of ad fraud to advertisers. Many people don’t realise it, but around $30 billion is wasted on ad fraud a year and less than 60% of website traffic is actual human people.

Nigel explores the pitfalls of marketing campaign measurement, sharing some truly shocking figures gathered from Veracity client data (before click fraud protection was put in place) of paid campaigns that incurred 87% non-human clicks. That’s a significantly large sum of wasted ad spend!

The second part of the masterclass presents solutions for ensuring better quality marketing data and robust decision-making.
