Today, we're going to talk about the shift away from rented audiences and unreliable signals toward building durable, first-party data assets. Specifically, we’ll cover: - Why the classic B2B and B2C buyer intent signals are becoming less reliable and what to look for instead. - How to navigate a new era of marketing measurement when privacy regulations and platform changes obscure the full picture. - The practical steps required to build a first-party data strategy that creates durable customer relationships, not just a larger database. To help me discuss this, I'd like to welcome, Alexi Hatch, CMO at Acoustic.
