Takeaways

This episode unpacked the news of Google delaying the deprecation of third-party cookies. While many advertisers breathe a sigh of relief, the future remains cookieless. Here are the key takeaways:

  • 3rd-Party Cookies: Google just said 3rd party cookies aren't really going anywhere, for now of course.
  • Challenges Abound: Missing data due to privacy regulations and low-quality programmatic data create hurdles.
  • First-Party Data is King: Building strong relationships with your audience and collecting valuable first-party data becomes paramount.
  • Contextual Targeting Shines: Understanding your audience's online behavior can still deliver effective ad placements.
  • Creative is Crucial: Compelling content is essential to capture attention in a world with less targeted advertising.
  • Transparency Matters: Hold your advertising partners accountable for data quality and campaign performance.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
