In the post-cookie landscape, staying ahead requires innovative strategies and partnerships. This case study dives into how MiQ, a leader in the cookieless era, strengthened its Identity Spine with the integration of Experian’s cross-device Graph.
Challenge
MiQ faced a pivotal challenge in avoiding a static approach to strategies and partners while evolving its cookieless initiatives. MiQ aimed to build omnichannel interoperability by integrating privacy-first partners into its Identity Spine. MiQ’s primary objectives included:
- Reaching target audiences in privacy-compliant ways.
- Expanding their cookieless targeting solutions.
- Maintaining or increasing the scale expected from cookie-based targeting.
Solution
To address these challenges, MiQ strategically incorporated Experian’s cross-device Graph into its proprietary Identity Spine. MiQ’s Identity Spine seamlessly connects over 60 cookieless data feeds and 25 ID solutions. The integration allowed MiQ to:
- Create a unified view: MiQ now has a unified view of its clients’ target audiences, enhancing its understanding and targeting capabilities.
- Increase scale: By matching first-party data to multiple universal IDs, MiQ expanded its reach across devices, contributing to a 51% increase in seed audience reach and a 64% increase in universal IDs.
- Improve efficiency: The combination of Experian’s data with MiQ’s Identity Spine facilitated cross-device ID resolution, leading to more accurate measurement and reporting.
Experian’s global data coverage complemented MiQ’s regional expertise, amplifying global reach and adaptability to changing regulations.
“Experian’s Graph has bolstered our alreadycomprehensive, multi-ID Identity Spine withincredible data on cross-device ownershipand cross-channel behavior.”

For as long as the ad buying process has existed, most brands and agencies have put an emphasis on the channel – meaning there were specific campaigns for direct mail, email, TV, social media, banner ads, etc. In fact, the teams responsible for these campaigns often work in silos. But with more people consuming information through multiple channels, it’s important for brands and agencies to put the customer at the center of the ad buying process – to develop and implement true omnichannel campaigns. I recently wrote a byline article for Broadcasting & Cable that explored the concept of the “PeopleFronts.” While the Upfronts and Newfronts have dominated the ad buying world, brands and agencies need place larger emphasis on the customer. At the end of the day, the right mindset can open the door for more powerful campaigns and relevant messages that resonate with the consumer.

As ever, marketers have to be strategic to reach the right customers. Ensure seasonal messaging reaches the right customers with audience optimization.
