Creative Intelligence And Its Role In Online Advertising with Alex Collmer - EP 298

You may have heard of artificial intelligence, but what about creative intelligence?  Alex Collmer, CEO of VidMob, joined me on SEJ Show to talk about creative intelligence and its role in helping marketers, especially in today's market conditions.  Gain insight into how creative intelligence optimizations and data transparency can help you make the right decision when running your creative campaigns.  Find out how it plays in with privacy updates and running campaigns across various ad networks, mobile devices, and social media apps.   One of the things that creative intelligence can do is help people get a reality check on how original and unique that creative is vis-a-vis the myriad of things in the market today. It's a tool to help people monitor culture to understand how trends are progressing and when the moment has passed. –Alex Collmer,15:34 Before, it was about getting the click to go to the site.
