With the constant pressure on marketers to make the most of their advertising budgets, it has become especially important for the channels marketers use to be both effective and trackable. These days, marketers are looking for data-driven tools that directly turn their ad dollars into performance success. And according to a survey conducted by The Trade Desk, Connected TV is that tool––with 95% of marketers reporting that CTV achieves desired key performance indicators.
