A CMO Confidential interview with Auren Hoffman, the CEO of Safegraph and former Co-Founder & CEO of LiveRamp. Auren provides a deep look at data as people, places, companies and products crossed with time and price, shares his thinking on why marketing data is still in its infancy and usually less good than other data, and details why machine learning stacked on top of "mostly true data" will create exponential errors as machine learning scales. Key topics include why vendor management is one of the most important skills for the future, why "almost every company has way more people than they need," and how AI will transform marketing in the near future. Listen in to hear why he believes most companies should fire their procurement departments.
