He also breaks down the difference between public and private identity graphs and why maintaining an identity graph requires constant, real-time updates.The conversation also explores why some of the most valuable customer intent signals happen before a person ever logs in or identifies themselves. Dirk shares practical examples of using anonymous signals for audience suppression, predictive models, abandoned-cart triggers, and real-time personalization. He explains how businesses can move beyond traditional lifecycle marketing and begin responding to customer intent earlier in the decision-making process, creating better experiences while improving marketing efficiency.
