🎛️ Why marketing operations leaders have become modernizers

Plus, how strange will a cookieless internet be? [View in browser]( | [Share]() [Martech: Martech is Marketing]() Apr 11, 2022 Apr 11, 2022 Good morning, Marketer, and won’t a cookieless world seem strange? I had that thought last week when my Instagram feed suddenly filled with ads for a product I was not remotely in-market for. But at least I knew why. I had been researching a brand for a case study I was writing. I spent some time, of course, on their website, looking at products for which I was not the target demographic. I filled no forms on the website, offered up no personal information, yet the ads showed up right away on my social media. Ah, the magic of cookies. I’m too accustomed to this happening to find it annoying, but it did make me think about how random advertising might become in the post-cookie age. There is at least a chance I might be interested in a product I appear to have been researching. An internet where I’m shown ads for products I haven’t even looked at — snow shoes? helicopters? — is going to be stranger than we yet fully realize. Kim DavisEditorial Director P.S.
