Lotame today announced they saw 460% growth in second-party data adoption globally in 2018.
Second-party data is data sold by its owner in a private 1:1 transaction. With this type of data available, buyers understand exactly where the data is coming from and how reliable it ultimately is. Marketers need assurance as to the quality and precision of the data they buy.
Lotame Syndicate, the company’s private second-party data marketplace, has seen a 460% growth in the number of participants since 2017 and an overall increase in global revenue of 273%. This revenue growth is largely thanks to the North America market where revenue grew a whopping 20,044% over the past two years.
North America has seen users increase by 1,200% since 2017. In the APAC region users increased by 300%, and in the EMEA region, users doubled.
On the heels of this growth, Lotame launched the Syndicate online marketplace. While Lotame Syndicate has been available for a few years, this new visual marketplace provides buyers with a transparent way to research and vet some of the sellers of second-party data on Lotame Syndicate that have opted-in to showcase their data. Some of the participating global sellers include 180byTwo, AD3+ (Neuron), Advance Local, Connected Interactive, DataXpand, Gulf News, Hexagon, Lonely Planet, MMPWW, Phunware, VerticalScope, Vibrant Media, Viglinks, and Zoopla.
“Second-party data offers the transparency that marketers demand today in a post-GDPR world,” said Jason Downie, Chief Strategy Officer at Lotame. “And we’re seeing publishers take advantage of that.

The benefits of second-party data are clearly resonating with marketers and we expect this number to only increase this year.”
In fact, 180byTwo saw a 67% increase in CTR using second-party data purchased through Lotame Syndicate.

With more GPS enabled devices than ever before the location data, we are able to gather from these consumers creates a sea of information that is begging to be used by marketers. What has really stimulated the extensive information we have gathered is the increase in consumers using location-enabled mobile devices. Mobile devices now have the ability to record a customer’s real-time location with accurate geographic information generating more useful data for marketers daily.

This data helps marketers to understand where their customers are and when to target them for maximum performance. Below are going to go through the top five things you should know about Location-Based Marketing.
1. Impulse Purchases Can Be Turned Into Sales:
With Location marketing, it is easy to persuade a consumer to purchase when a specific retailer targets an ad while that customer is in the proximity of the store. Now that the companies product/service is top of mind and in the physical location, it is three times as likely for that customer to make the purchase than if they were at home.
2. You Can Connect More With Consumers:
When you can more accurately identify a large number of your customers clustered in an area it is much easier to create relevant content that will appeal to them. This kind of tailored content will make your customers relate more to your business as well as feeling more connected to you.
3. It Is Highly Trackable And Personalized:
Being that you can see your customers’ app downloads, precise location, and even past purchasing habits allowing mobile advertising to be a valuable asset every marketer should utilize. These ads become trackable and retailers can identify which ads are bringing customers into their store and what ads are falling flat.
4. Have A Good Call to Action:
Having a persuasive call to action is key. To actually get your customers into your store you can’t create content that is generic. You need to concentrate on your customer’s specific wants and needs, and the way to do that is by creating a relevant call to action for your ad campaign that will bring people in.
5. Getting Creative Boosts Sales:
Most marketers that utilize location-based marketing think that knowing the location is everything. But to really draw in those customers you must make the ad creative and fun. Creativity when creating your campaigns will win over more customers than any other aspect on the ad.
