Analytics Council

Council Objectives

The Analytics Council focuses on ways that companies can address emerging challenges and leverage opportunities with the expanding array of available data.

The Council identifies common uses of data in the current Martech environment, explores various technologies and approaches, and develops guidelines, considerations, and best practices for data modeling from audience development to channel optimization to cross-media, audience-based measurement and beyond. By democratizing and demystifying the black box of analytics, the Council aims to help companies make more informed data-centric decisions.

ANALYTICS COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS


    Dealing with the Loss of Identifiers: A Marketer’s Guide


    This guide by the ARF Analytics Council offers a deep dive into the privacy-first landscape, covering government regulations, browser and app policies, and measurement challenges, and offers practical identity solutions—from synthetic IDs to advanced modeling—to enable successful targeting and attribution in an era of declining identity data. Download the Identifier Loss Guide.

    A Layman's Guide to Cross Media Reach & Frequency Measurement Using Virtual IDs.


    On May 17, 2023, the ARF Analytics Council explored the groundbreaking concept of Virtual IDs (VIDs) and their potential to revolutionize cross-media measurement. The essential mechanics of VIDs were explained in a non-technical manner. Panelists shared how VIDs could overcome barriers in calculating cross-media and device reach and frequency.

    Presentations from that event were expanded in a report, Calculating Aggregate Reach and Frequency Using Virtual People. This guide describes the origins of the VID concept, its advantages, how it overcomes the hurdle of individual-level exposure data from different devices, the data sources it requires and the steps for converting campaign event data to Virtual IDs and then to aggregate reach and frequency estimates.

    See the May 17 event and the presentations.
