TP437: Performance Marketing Is Dead. Long Live Performance Marketing

Chris Boyer and Reed Smith explore how traditional performance marketing tactics have unraveled — and what must replace them. From cookie deprecation to HIPAA compliance and signal loss across Meta and Google, the rules have changed. But the need for results hasn’t. They discuss:

  • Why platform-optimized media is no longer reliable
  • How privacy and regulatory shifts are redefining performance marketing
  • The rise of media mix modeling and infrastructure-led strategy
  • What modern measurement looks like when attribution pixels disappear

Aaron Burnett, CEO of Wheelhouse DMG, joins to share how his team rebuilt performance marketing around privacy-first data, internal measurement models, and transparent media planning. He breaks down the critical difference between CDPs and data warehouses, the real-world challenge of earning trust to access EMR data, and how AI is reshaping execution without replacing strategy.
