Advertisers at Google's NewFront saw one number, bold and unavoidable: a 76% jump in return on ad spend. That figure, revealed when a marketer added just one more tool from the Google Marketing Platform, wasn't a subtle detail. It was the entire headline.
The message is no longer a suggestion. For that level of performance, buying into Google's complete ecosystem is becoming the mandatory ticket.
By running integrated campaigns across the full customer journey, advertisers can unlock significant incremental value. In fact, advertisers who added an extra Google Marketing Platform product to their mix saw a 76% lift in ROAS. 1 Turn every connection into high value opportunities with Confidential Publisher Match and Google's Commerce Media Suite Confidential Publisher Match is the next generation of our identity model, now operating within Trusted Execution Environments.
In a privacy first way, it connects your first-party data with the streaming signals from publishers, like Roku. This way, you can reach your customers at scale with precision, and track their journey from a CTV impression to a final purchase -- without extra workload. We are also scaling the reach of Google's proprietary audience segments within Display & Video 360 to 96% of ad supported CTV households.
