Tokyo, July 5, 2019 --- D.A.Consortium Inc. (DAC) is pleased to announce its work with Hakuhodo DY Media Partners and Trippiece Co., Ltd. (Trippiece) to jointly develop Regional Revitalization DMP and begin regional revitalization initiatives utilizing travel data.

Regional revitalization measures are primarily driven by local governments to promote tourism, outside sales of regional specialty products, migration from other cities and a human resources influx. These measures are based on data-driven marketing that utilize data on diversifying sei-katsu-sha (our term for consumers that encompasses all aspects of their lives). Because issues and characteristics of local residents and visitors differ according to region, data-driven marketing, which offers a clearer picture of sei-katsu-sha, is highly applicable for regional revitalization efforts and demand for it is increasing yearly.

Against this backdrop, Hakuhodo DY Media Partners, Trippiece and DAC have jointly developed Regional Revitalization DMP, which bridges the browser data of Trippiece’s RETRIP(*1), a travel and outing media, with Hakuhodo DY Group’s Sei-katsu-sha DMP (data management platform)(*2).

Regional Revitalization DMP brings together RETRIP’s website browser information with Sei-katsu-sha DMP’s data on demographics, hobbies and interests to identify potential customers for each region. With actual data on sei-katsu-sha hobbies, tastes and interests, the newly developed DMP offers direct customer insight to allow for better tailored marketing strategy proposals and creative production. The new DMP also enables the development of PR articles and banners that reflect RETRIP data analyses. In addition, by utilizing other data within Sei-katsu-sha DMP, it can be used for high-precision ad delivery based on browser data of each target segment, for effective mass planning, and for analysis linking data owned by advertiser companies.

During the development of this new service, we conducted trials and found that compared to conventional ad delivery methods, promotional branding initiatives for regional specialty products using the new DMP improved CRT by approximately 2.5 times and sales at actual stores rose approximately 1.3 times from the year before.

In the future, RETRIP data and AudienceOne^®(*3) will be linked through Sei-katsu-sha DMP to realize the PDCA cycle of data-driven marketing for regional revitalization initiatives by providing DSP delivery, effect analysis using location information data, and in-depth analysis of target audiences or latent demand for new tourist resources through RETRIP hashtags, location tags, article titles and article content.

Regional Revitalization DMP is part of Category Works Local & Travel, the third element of the industry-focused marketing solution Category Works(*4) provided by Hakuhodo DY Group. With this Trippiece RETRIP collaboration, Category Works Local & Travel will promote its initiatives with other regional revitalization and travel-related media and expand its relationships with regional revitalization and travel-related companies to link its data with their first-party, visitor and other data.
