ADDICTIVE MOBILITY 2014 YEAR END REPORT
2014 witnessed a clear demarcation between Global brands and Agencies who have fully embraced mobile advertising compared to those who remain under the notion that digital advertising continues to be synonymous only with online advertising.

2015 The Year Ahead
Evolution of Data to Storytelling: Brands will be demanding a better understand of their digital spend with clear measurement tools. We will move from reporting on CTR numbers to analysis of post campaign data.
Immersive Mobile First Messaging: There will be a more integrated marketing approach to mobile advertising. Advertisers will leverage `sight, sound and motion’ utilizing all mobile ad formats: Video, Rich Media and Native Ads. Additionally, there will be an increase in creative AB testing and creative analytics.
Greater Data Points: There will be a greater demand on publishers to provide more robust user information via impression data passed to either DSPs or DMPs. More publishers will begin to pass better Geo data, demographic data to improve audience targeting.
From many to a selected few: Both Agencies and Brands have significantly increased their knowledge in regards to the offering provided by Ad Tech platforms. They will now begin to choose partners offering clear differentiators. Additionally, there will be an continuation of vendor consolidation via M&A activity.
