24 - Empowering Marketing Teams to be Data Independent | Antonia Hƶlke
Today we have a special episode for you. We invited our new strategic partner, Funnel, to discuss the importance of empowering marketing teams so that they can independently use and manage their data.Marketing and advertising platforms have more than doubled in the last few years. And we all know what that means for marketing teams: reporting, analyzing, optimizing, and back to reporting. And it doesn't seem to get easier. So how do marketing teams get independent in data connection, organization, storage, and sharing? Spoiler alert: Google Data Studio is not the answer.To shed light on these questions and offer a solution, we spoke with Antonia Hƶlke, Partner Success Manager from Funnel.Antonia told us why it is so important for marketing teams to be data-driven and to have a go-to place where all their data is connected. Furthermore, she explained how Funnel can help with connecting, organizing, storing, and sharing data and for whom it makes sense to onboard Funnel.If you are part of a marketing team, reporting is part of your daily business, and you are looking for ways to make the handling of your data more simple and holistic, this is the right episode for you.

21 - Ad fraud and the importance of ad quality in digital marketing | Yuval Shiboli
Episode 18 with Dr. Fou and the topic of fraud in the digital marketing world from the point of view of advertisers struck a nerve with you, our listeners. That's why we decided to dig deeper into this topic - this time from a publisher's point of view. For this important conversation, we invited Yuval Shiboli - Director of Product Marketing at GeoEdge - to join us in this episode. Fraud comes in many forms and appears in many places, and the digital marketing environment is no exception - clickbait creatives and scams are the reality for many publishers and advertisers. The industry rushed to embrace programmatic advertising and, as a result, gave up control. For publishers, their website is their face, and they need to control the ads their users see.But what can publishers do to ensure their ads' quality and their audience's safety? This you will learn in today's episode. Furthermore, we asked a curious question; Can we learn something from how fraudsters conduct their fraud? If you are a publisher, we are sure you will find this episode enlightening.What is your experience with fraud?
