Advertisers are having to rethink how they target consumers while adhering to laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and deal with loss of data as Google phases out third-party cookies and more people opt out of features like location tracking. “Top marketers have been quick to emphasize the importance of complying with the new law even as they move deeper into data-driven devices,” writes Marty Swant.

Marketing Procurement: Managing the Agency Dynamic
Competitive sourcing is different in a marketing context. Often, what is being purchased is one of a kind and does not have reasonable substitutes. Each agency pitch is different and the creative content between agencies is not necessarily comparable.
LEARN HOW AGENCIES REALLY WORKProcurement departments often use many different agencies or suppliers. Managing these agency and supplier relationships is a core function for procurement teams and doing so successfully remains a significant challenge. About 70% of procurement teams manage up to twenty agencies or suppliers, and 30% manage even more than that. In order to manage successfully, procurement teams need to have a robust strategy to manage and assess their suppliers and streamline the roster, if necessary.
Reducing the operational costs involved with working with a (potentially) large base of suppliers and agencies is an important objective for marketing procurement teams. Therefore, having a transparent financial relationship with agencies is vital.
Nearly 60% of procurement teams consider themselves to have true financial transparency in their agency and supplier relationships. Regular auditing is the key to understanding what agency and suppliers are doing and where your money is going. A professional financial audit every three years is recommended and gives all parties insight into their processes and helps evaluate agencies and suppliers on the question of value vs. price.

Q1 Resource
In our experience working with marketing and procurement teams, we have seen that a mutually supportive relationship between both parties cannot be underestimated. Alone, procurement might have a stronger focus on cost, risk and process, while marketing looks to deliver on sales and brand. Together, they drive overall brand innovation, performance and intelligence.

From R3 Research, Reports, Reports and EventsTIkTok Best Practice: Hashtag Challenges
Crocs: #ThousandDollarCrocsBest Practice: Select an influencer with the long-term in mindInspired by a lyric by the polarizing rapper Post Malone, Crocs launched a hashtag chal-lenge that encouraged users to post what they think their Crocs would look like if they were priced at $1,000. This led to a growth in audience and series of product collabora-tions that have sold out.
Results Less than 36 hours after launch, #ThousandDollarCrocs had been viewed 95 million times; 45,000 videos were created, 18% increase in followers.
Ralph Lauren: #winningRLBest Practice: Tie a challenge to a large-scale sporting or cultural event Ralph Lauren was possibly the first brand to launch a TikTok campaign tied to a sporting event, selecting to US Open Tennis Championship. The brand encouraged users to make videos to show moments where they are winning at tennis or in real life. The videos that were most engaging were awarded gear from Polo Ralph Lauren.
Results #winningRL has received almost 750 million views.
MAC: #YouOwnItBest Practice: Ensure the overall approach reflects the interest/values of Generation ZMAC wanted to boost its profile among Generation Z and hired 18 influencers - with the focus on ensuring diversity - to upload videos using the hashtag #YouOwnIt. The brand invested a six-figure amount to cover placement cost and music licensing and focused on creating a spike in awareness around MAC Cosmetics.
Results #YouOwnIt has received 2.3 billion views.

TikTok has solidified its position as one of the top social media platforms with 1.5 billion monthly users. A cultural touchstone for young people globally, its hashtag challenge is popular with marketers seeking to effectively drive engagement with Generation Z. 35% of TikTok users participate in hashtag challenges and 16% of all videos on the platform are related to challenges, which means successful campaigns have the potential to generate a high volume of views and significant user-generated content.
