Unlocking the power of first-party data and proprietary audience

Utilising first-party data:

A recent customer engagement report highlighted that 88% of marketers say gathering first-party data is a priority in 2021. It is therefore essential for brands to research effective ways to collect, classify, and activate this data through a compelling value proposition.

The effectiveness of digital advertising:

A primary advantage of digital advertising is reaching a specific audience cost-effectively with measurable returns. The ability to provide real-time bidding and instant market analysis is one of the best choices for in-app advertising. Through the demand-side platform of Huawei Ads, partners and agencies are empowered to execute marketing campaigns using all the innovative tools developed by the Huawei. Another aspect of the platform that is equally important and appealing is Huawei’s Open Advertiser Identifier (OAID). Huawei aims to strictly protect users’ privacy and security while providing them with a unique and smart experience. OAID is a non-permanent device identifier that showcases personalised ads to the user while complying with their privacy preferences.

The advantages of programmatic:

The most significant advantage of programmatic advertising over the traditional one, which involves human negotiations and manual insertion orders, is the ease of media buying by simplifying the entire process. Advertisers can reach their target audience more effectively while getting real-time insights regarding audience interactions with the advert.

At Huawei, the four core pillars for advertisers are:

• Precision Targeting – assisting advertisers by creating meaningful personas from multiple data sources.
  
• Lookalike Modeling – using AI and machine learning to target similar audiences in real-time and with transparency while maintaining the same quality.
  
• Private Audiences – focusing on advertisers’ first-party data user list; retarget engaging users based on app data and in-app actions for better performance.
  
• Insight Analysis – providing critical insights on campaign data from multiple dimensions for better targeting and ROI.

While the large consumer base of over 700+ million monthly active users is already a compelling proposition, it will only expand with time. Huawei’s 1+8+N strategy envisions bringing the Huawei Ads offering to the company’s portfolio of smart TVs, tablets, PCs, and IoT (Internet of Things) devices.
