1 THE VALUE OF DATA // 2015 CONSEQUENCES FOR INSIGHT, INNOVATION & EFFICIENCY IN THE US ECONOMY DECEMBER 2015 John Deighton Baker Foundation Professor of Business Administration Harvard Business School and Peter A. Johnson, PhD Principal, mlightenment Economic Impact Research and recent Adjunct Professor Columbia University Preface by Lindsay Hutter and Neil O Keefe Data-Driven Marketing Institute Co-Executives COMMISSIONED BY

2 PREFACE BY DMA The following views are solely those of the Direct Marketing Association, its Data Driven Marketing Institute, and Lindsay Hutter and Neil O Keefe, Co-Executives of the Institute. These views are not necessarily the views of the authors of the Value of Data Report, Professor John Deighton and Peter Johnson, PhD, nor are the authors responsible for the Preface s characterization of their report. In 2013, the Direct Marketing Association and its Data-Driven Marketing Institute commissioned Professor John Deighton and Peter Johnson, PhD, to conduct research on a never-before studied topic: the Data-Driven Marketing Economy (). The result was, The Value of Data: Consequences for Insight, Innovation and Efficiency in the US Economy. The 2013 report and this updated 2015 report describe the as the economy of firms that exist to help US companies use individual-level consumer data (ILCD) to support marketers as they go to market, designing and implementing strategies by which they acquire and retain customers in other words, grow demand for their goods and services. For the first time, this industry and the jobs it generated were quantified initially in the 2013 report and now updated in this 2015 report. These reports have given stakeholders in the future success of the US economy insight into the size, scope and significance of this new and bourgeoning sector of the economy, and what might be at stake in regulating it. Considering that most industries in America rely on data-driven marketing, this systematic and objective effort to map and measure the delivered value and perspective on the US economy s current and future success. Both reports fill a significant gap in understanding the massive changes transforming the US economy changes propelled by the growing quantity and variety of data available to businesses and consumers alike. The 2015 Value of Data report now represents the most thorough, up-to-the-moment and theoretically-informed study yet undertaken of the and its expanding role as a vital driver of marketplace efficiency, consumer value and economic and job growth at a national level and within all 50 US states. For those most responsible for policies that support continued US economic growth and foster innovation that benefits consumers and the marketplace, DMA believes this report attests to the importance of five critical questions: How much incremental value does data-driven marketing contribute to the US economy and jobs? How much efficiency and critical insight does data-driven marketing contribute to the success of businesses of all sizes, and particularly small businesses, in the US economy? How much value does data-driven marketing contribute to ensuring consumers receive marketing information they need and desire? How much of this value to the US economy is accounted for by the transfer of data among firms? What new policy approaches should be considered today in education and jobs training to build upon the s success in driving economic growth and adding high-value science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) positions into the US economy? DMA 1333 Broadway, Suite 301 New York, NY 10018

3 The following key findings from the 2015 Report substantiate the importance of the questions on the preceding page. 1 2 The US is a Growth and Jobs Catalyst for the US Economy. The use of data-driven marketing added $202 billion in revenue to the US economy in 2014, up from $150 billion in 2012 and representing impressive growth of 35% in just two years. Equally impressive was employment growth within firms. By 2014, firms employed 966,000 professionals, from 49% - or 650,000 jobs over The US is a Jobs Catalyst for Every State in the US. All 50 US states experienced jobs growth in the from 2012 to From East Coast to West Coast and in between, jobs growth was significant. For example, California s related jobs grew from 89,000 to 128,478. Michigan s grew from 17,000 to 25,116, and New York grew from 51,000 to 78, The US Produces High-value Jobs Here in America that are Integral to the Emerging Internet of Things (IoT) Economy. The US leads the world in data science applied to the marketplace, and data-driven marketing is a major export industry. firms derive a considerable portion of their revenue abroad (sometimes upwards of 15%) while employing nearly all their workers in the US. Most of the growth in the from 2012 to 2014 was fueled by two sectors electronic commerce and digital audience assembly that DMA believes represent the pillars of the emerging IoT economy. Electronic commerce, which represents 22% of entire data-driven marketing ecosystem, grew an impressive 45%. Digital audience assembly, which represents 13% of ecosystem, grew a remarkable 86%. 4 The US Leads the World in this Innovative Field. Ideas developed in the US by American statisticians and econometricians, running on hardware designed in the US and coded in algorithms developed and tested in the research offices of US firms, are used throughout the world. No other nation produces the range and depth of datadriven marketing innovation and societal and economic benefits. Data-driven marketing is a significant export of the US economy. The 2015 Value of Data report found that firms earned a significant part of their revenues abroad about 15% in some cases while employing STEM-trained workers in the US.

4 Informing current and future policy discussions. As with the prior Value of Data report, DMA and DDMI intend for the 2015 report to be a resource to policymakers and those that report on the and its vital role in the US economy. We believe that this 2015 report affirms the following essentials for policy discussions: Regulatory Debates about the Use of Data Should be Based on Facts about the Value of Data. Legislators and regulators continue to show a deep interest in understanding how data is used within the. The 2015 report updates policymakers with current data and facts about the vital and growing role of data use in fueling innovation, economic and job growth nationally and in all 50 states. Regulation Impacts Innovation, Small Businesses, Jobs and Economic Growth. New regulations stopping the exchange of data across the would impact $102 billion in revenue to the US economy and over 490,000 American jobs. The biggest winners in the innovation and small businesses would also be the biggest losers if startups could no longer use data to overcome barriers to entry, raise ad-supported revenue, and identify new and niche markets to serve. The Bottom Line: Well-Meaning, yet Potentially Misinformed Legislation or Regulation Restricting the Responsible Use of Data Would Harm the US Economy. It would impact billions of dollars in revenue and hundreds of thousands of jobs, make small business less competitive, and stifle innovation. It would hurt consumers by limiting choices, preventing consumers from being exposed to the best prices available, stalling the efficiencies that drive a more competitive marketplace, and impeding the innovation that delivers enhanced and more valuable marketing experiences for consumers. We hope that it provides policymakers with facts that show the vital role that data plays in fueling innovation, jobs and economic growth. We also hope that it brings clarity, quantification and demonstration of the benefits that the provides to consumers, individual businesses and the US economy and what would be lost if regulations and regulatory actions impeded responsible exchange of data across the.

5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY THE VALUE OF DATA 2015: Consequences for Insight, Innovation and Efficiency in the US Economy 15

6 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report updates our 2013 study of the size and composition of the US data-driven marketing economy (), the ecosystem of supplier firms that help marketers use individual-level customer data (ILCD) to efficiently select, contact, and transact with end customers (whether individual consumers or business buyers) via individually interactive media (IIM) and non-media touchpoints. Our 2015 study finds that firms in the economy received a net $202 billion from providing ILCD marketing services to the nation s producers and distributors of goods and services. Assuming firms make outlays in expectation of at least equal return, the use of the added output to the US economy worth at least $202 billion and likely significantly more, so that $202 billion should be regarded as a lower bound on the contribution of ILCD to the US economy. In providing these services, the s firms together employed about 966,000 individuals. As in 2013, our 2015 study found that ILCD reduced inefficiency in matching producers and customers, or increased effectiveness, and in most cases did both. ILCD was used both offline and online. It was used for targeting prospective customers and for interaction with existing customers. We found the total value of marketers expenditures on ILCD services in the grew 35% over 2013 s base of $150 billion. Most of this growth was driven by sustained growth in two segments of the : in electronic commerce, which represents about 22% of the entire ecosystem and grew 45% in the two years, and digital (particularly mobile and social) audience assembly, which, while smaller at 13% of the total, grew 86%. Postal production, another large segment, did not grow at all. Consistent with our 2013 findings, we attribute 2015 s overall size and growth of the to the following perceived benefits offered to marketers: Measurable efficiency in marketing strategy and media budgeting and buying. The offers more targetable media and direct marketing channels than do traditional mass or broadcast media. Individual targeting enables producers to identify and select only those customers most likely to buy the producer s offering - people who do not need costly persuasion - thus avoiding wasted spending on messaging to people unlikely to buy. Greater marketing insight. Using ILCD to measure response to marketing actions, marketers can test how hundreds, even thousands of components of their marketing produce different levels of results, thus discovering how to tailor their offerings to consumer preferences and needs. Lower barriers to marketing entry. Our study found that the cost structure of services is much more favorable for smaller, less heavily capitalized firms challenging entrenched incumbents, than is that of broadcast marketing services. For example, search engine marketing is accessible to small budgets while television advertising is not. Several factors explain this difference. First, ILCD s more precise targeting can achieve same effects with lower budgets whenever advertising is priced on a cost per audience or cost per action basis. Second fixed costs in ILCD media tend to be lower in broadcast so that more of an ad budget can be spent on reaching a bigger audience (a variable cost). Third, startups and small- and medium-sized businesses can license third-party data for prospecting new customers. This helps them to compete with established brands proprietary databases of customers. Altogether, ILCD services, particularly those enabling thirdparty data for new market entrants and entrepreneurial firms help keep the US economy diversified and innovative, and its price levels competitive. 16 THE VALUE OF DATA 2015: Consequences for Insight, Innovation and Efficiency in the US Economy

7 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The is a significant growth sector of the US export economy. The US leads the world in reengineering markets through data science. Ideas developed in the US by American statisticians and econometricians, running on hardware designed in the US and coded in algorithms developed and tested in the research offices of US firms, are used throughout the world. Our study found that firms in the earned a significant part of their revenues (sometimes upwards of 15%) from revenues earned outside the US while they employed most of their STEM-trained development staffs within the US. The benefits from innovation in digital content creation and distribution, which create rich ILCD opportunities for marketing and advertising. Individual-level data not only makes efficiencies possible relative to non- marketing, but it enables efficiencies to be identified within the s targetable media. The has fostered startup entrepreneurship particularly in building digital content to be funded through marketing targeted to individuals, particularly in social media and ecommerce. These platforms have embraced or innovated new ways for technology to collect, store and analyze the often enormous quantities of unstructured data that online publishers, especially in social media, are able to glean from their first-party relationship with their audiences. On the later point, our current analysis continues 2013 s investigation of how the size and growth of the overall reflects the structure and interplay of its component segments along two separate dimensions: first, the dollar dimension in which marketer expenditures fund distinct segments supplying strategy, intermediation in ILCD media purchasing, and media production and delivery, including transacting and fulfillment; and second, a data flow dimension, in which ILCD data flows in the opposite direction to dollars, namely from end customers via ILCD media and transaction touchpoints and on towards media buying intermediaries, strategy providers, and of course, marketers. Our study analyzes the by segment because we found a great variety in how different business models collect, analyze and use individual data. Almost every marketer has its own house file of customer records (first-party data) which it uses as is to buy some ILCD media in the. But, a much larger portion of the in the US comprises a large transparent secondary market in which marketers or publishers first party data (data from their customers or audiences) can be curated or deployed on their behalf by service firms, or licensed via intermediaries to other marketers for their own use to grow their business at which point first-party data becomes third party data. This ability to acquire and deploy the right mix of data and third-party data is what empowers US firms to read ever more precisely the needs and wants of vast numbers of consumers, whose anonymity, without the, would otherwise go unfathomed. In 2015, we find significant growth in marketers reliance on marketing services involving thirdparty data. We estimate that services reliant on third-party data have increased in net value added by $12 billion, or 39% relative to 2013; in addition, the value added by services indirectly reliant on servicing marketers first-party data grew at 24%. More than half of the, or almost $102 billion of revenue in the ecosystem, and almost 500,000 jobs, depend directly or indirectly on individual-level third-party data. Thus the value to the US economy is greater than $102 billion. As important as first- or third-party data may be to marketers efforts to grow their business, marketers spend money on ILCD for the same reason they once spent on broadcast: advertising in media that most efficiently reaches customers. Just as ad dollars subsidized the birth of America s offline, broadcast media economy, revenue is underwriting media s transformation from analog to digital. Indeed, for legacy branded, multichannel media, ILCD ad revenues represent the monetary lifeboat that they hope will rescue their leaking offline business models.

8 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY agencies, ` these digital migrants must rely on the innovative, but highly complex volatile and sometimes controversial sector we call audience targeting providers (but often known as ad tech to insiders). In this digital ad market, branded media must also compete head-to-head for ad dollars with another sector that is not so dependent on third-party adtech: social media publishers. And so while the distinction between first- and third-party ILCD services may appear arcane from a technology or policy perspective, it is not. A responsibly managed market in third-party data is vital to the survival of news and other forms of branded media in the face of media that don t need third-party data because theirs is first-party data. 18 THE VALUE OF DATA 2015: Consequences for Insight, Innovation and Efficiency in the US Economy
