ad:tech IMPACT Ft. Lauderdale - Rick Bruner
event: ad:tech IMPACT Ft. Lauderdale, FL
session title: Best Practices for Optimizing Digital Advertising Effectiveness
presenter: Rick Bruner, Research Director, DoubleClick Digital Advertising Solutions
date: April 6, 2006
I’ve previously listened to Rick Bruner speak knowledgeably from the podium on many occasions both as a fellow speaker and an audience member. Rick’s solid presentation at ad:tech in Ft. Lauderdale had me rapidly scribbling highlights that included:
> behavior correlation
> why controlling frequency is important to ROI
> 4 tenets of optimization
There were two items that particularly interested me and I caught up with Rick after his talk and asked him to elaborate on:
> the importance of questioning assumptions
> the significance of the “brand-direct response” hybrid
John Lawlor interviews Rick Bruner on questioning Internet marketing assumptions and branding vs. direct response
