The Marketer’s Connectivity Hub
Data Connectivity 101
A practical guide to data connectivity, shaped by Lotame’s 20 years of experience helping marketers and agencies activate audiences across platforms, partners, and environments.
Activation is where fragmentation shows up fastest. Audiences are defined in one place and activated in another across platforms that do not always align. Strong signals exist, but they do not move. Without connectivity, audiences are rebuilt, slowing activation and fragmenting performance.
Connectivity isn’t just about integrations. It’s what allows audience strategy to move across platforms—and actually work at activation.
“The core challenge hasn’t changed: delivering ads to the right audience at scale using data that’s transparent and discoverable.”
Corrie van Hemert, Head of Data Partnerships at Lotame

Connectivity does not create value on its own
Identity provides continuity so audiences can be recognized. Data provides the signals that define them. Connectivity ensures those audiences can be activated across platforms and environments.
