Daniel Yomtobian - Predicts the Future of the Online Advertising Industry

Dec 15, 2023

In a report released last August, Grace Research Data said the global digital ad market would deliver a compound annual growth rate of 11.3% between 2019 and 2026 to hit $664.7 billion in value.

Los Angeles, California, United States - December 15, 2023 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

The last few years have been challenging for everyone as the global pandemic impacts impacts all spheres of life. Governments are bracing for sharp contractions of their national economies, but the current downturn is also throwing up opportunities for some sectors, especially where digital operations underpin the business model. “Advertising has always been an industry quick to evolve with the times, devising new formats to reach consumers in an increasingly connected world,” notes Daniel Yomtobian, an entrepreneur and corporate executive with an established reputation in the online media space. “While the timing and strength of a global economic revival remain uncertain, the digital advertising market has held up relatively well and is expected to stage a swift recovery once business activity returns to normal. Moreover, there are indications that social distancing measures and quarantines are driving changes in consumer behaviors, most notably a strong pivot towards online and mobile services. This is likely to create additional opportunities for digital advertisers and help them rebound faster.”

Boosted by the proliferation of mobile devices, the rise of social media platforms, and the boom in online shopping and streaming services, digital advertising has enjoyed a decade of robust growth. As Daniel Yomtobian points out, it now accounts for more than half of total ad spending, and its share is projected to increase further. Before the pandemic started affecting the market, digital ad spending was forecast to reach $335 billion in 2020, rising to $517 billion by the end of 2023, according to estimates published on Statista. In a report released last August, Grace Research Data said the global digital ad market would deliver a compound annual growth rate of 11.3% between 2019 and 2026 to hit $664.7 billion in value. Although forecasts are being revised to account for the impact of the pandemic, most analysts and industry players expect the sector to weather this storm relatively well with support from several verticals. While travel, hospitality, and traditional entertainment have been battered, there has been excellent news from other quarters: food delivery, software (especially messaging and video conferencing solutions), streaming services (films, gaming, and music), home improvement, and hobbies are areas that have seen a spike in popularity and a related increase in digital advertising budgets. 

Market analysts and economists are wary of committing to projections for a specific recovery timeframe, but most appear to expect some relief during the second half of the year and a pronounced upturn in 2021, Daniel Yomtobian comments. In the digital advertising sector, there are signs of tentative optimism, as suggested by a recent poll from the European division of the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB). A large proportion of the respondents, which included both buy- and sell-side operators, reported a 25% drop in second-quarter spending and trading, but the majority were upbeat about the third quarter of 2020. Among buy-side participants, 60% expect some degree of improvement, the proportion rising to 67% for sell-side respondents. Additionally, the poll revealed impressive growth during the pandemic in ad spending across several verticals: healthcare topped the list with 42%, fast-moving consumer goods and entertainment each registered an increase of 35%, retail saw a 23% rise, and electronics achieved a 22% uptick. In another sign of guarded optimism, eMarketer made only a slight revision to its 2020 forecast for global advertising expenditure, amending its previously projected growth rate from 7.4% to 7%, or from an estimated $712 billion to $691.7 billion. 

Starting out as a web designer, Daniel Yomtobian quickly realized that his true passion was online advertising. Considered a pioneer and innovator in this space, he has dedicated himself to helping advertisers and publishers maximize their ROI and successfully monetize their solutions. In 2014, C-Suite Quarterly described him as a “…young leader [who] will continue to play an important role in shaping the online world of tomorrow.” Daniel Yomtobian studied business marketing at California State University-Northridge.

Asian Games: PNVF admits efforts to support Alas Pilipinas Men 'not enough', vows to address athletes' financial woes

The Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF) admitted to its shortcomings in financially supporting its athletes after Alas Men veteran Bryan Bagunas raised concerns over the lack of allowances in their Asian Games campaign.

Bryan Bagunas laments lack of support for Alas Pilipinas

MANILA, Philippines — Alas Pilipinas team captain Bryan Bagunas has voiced deep frustration over the national team's financial struggles, revealing that players have not received their allowances since July and have resorted to borrowing money just to commute to training. The revelation came shortly after the squad's straight-sets loss to Japan, where Bagunas scored a team-high 15 points. Speaking on behalf of the squad, the team captain highlighted how the financial strain is hurting player morale and training attendance, particularly for younger student-athletes. "It’s really sad because we represent the country, but we don’t feel the support meant for us. I’m really affected, especially for the younger players," Bagunas shared. He added that the lack of transportation funds often prevents players from attending practice, sometimes leaving as few as seven or eight athletes on the court. The financial burden has followed the squad overseas. While in Japan for their campaign, players have had to pay out-of-pocket for basic necessities like meals when training schedules clash with hotel dining hours. Outside of basic Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) allowances, Bagunas noted that team members are forced to shoulder their own daily expenses. The current national team roster retains the same core lineup from the FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship, now competing in the Asian Games. The squad is led by heavy hitters Bagunas and Marck Espejo, outside hitters Buds Buddin and Jude Garcia, and opposite spikers Leo Ordiales and John Lirck Mendoza. The national team's financial complaints follow recent administrative changes within the Philippine National Volleyball Federation (PNVF), which elected businessman Frank Lao as its new president.

Gialon seeks to rekindle winning magic in Iloilo

Gialon seeks to rekindle winning magic in Iloilo

MANILA, Philippines — Working his way back to form over the last two years, Zanieboy Gialon returns to the very venue where he last tasted victory, hoping to put everything together again when the ICTSI Iloilo Golf Challenge blasts off Tuesday (Sept. 29) at the Iloilo Golf and Country Club. Gialon ended a two-year title drought the last time the Philippine Golf Tour visited the country’s oldest golf course, then known as Santa Barbara, in 2024. He turned what was expected to be a tight, furious finish into a runaway six-shot victory over Angelo Que and Ira Alido. Now, two years removed from that successful week in Iloilo, the 37-year-old Davao del Sur native finds himself in a familiar position: contending again, but still searching for that elusive next victory. He has threatened in several tournaments during the current season, only to fall short when it mattered most. But his latest showing in last week’s ICTSI Negros Occidental Classic could provide the boost he needs heading back to a course where he has already proven he can win. Gialon finished solo fourth at Marapara, staying in contention deep into the final round with a two-under 33 on the front nine. He, however, could not sustain the charge, settling for a closing 35 and a 68 to finish three shots behind champion Art Arbole. The result nevertheless marked another encouraging performance for Gialon, who also posted a Top 5 finish at Caliraya Springs, the site of his 2022 triumph. His other results have been less consistent, including a missed cut at Lakewood, a tie for 15th at Pinewoods, a joint 15th at Pradera and a share of 24th at Summit Point. But the Marapara performance could be particularly significant heading to Iloilo. Like the Marapara layout, Iloilo is tight and tricky, with doglegs and hazards that demand patience and sound decision-making. Aggressive play can yield rewards, but misplaced attacks can prove costly on a course where trouble lurks around virtually every corner. That should suit Gialon as he seeks to rekindle the form that carried him to his emphatic victory here two years ago. He will need it, however, with a stellar cast of rivals bringing their own missions to the P2.5-million championship organized by Pilipinas Golf Tournaments, Inc. Que, the reigning Order of Merit champion, is chasing a third victory of the season as he seeks to strengthen his bid for back-to-back OOM crowns. The three-time Asian Tour winner has already ruled at Caliraya and Summit Point, although he settled for a joint 12th-place finish in Negros. Que could point to fatigue after competing in Taiwan before returning to the Philippines, leaving him little time to practice and reacquaint himself with the Marapara layout. With a full week of rest and preparation, he looms as one of the players to watch from the opening tee shot. Arbole, meanwhile, heads to Iloilo looking to build on the momentum of his breakthrough victory at Negros. After a 14-year wait for his first professional title, the veteran finally found the formula that had eluded him for much of his career. Jhonnel Ababa also comes in with something to prove after fading late against Arbole in Negros and settling for third, extending his own title drought to two years. Young and hungry Jeffren Lumbo, who finished second to Arbole, will likewise be chasing a follow-up to his breakthrough triumph at South Pacific last year, where he outdueled Russell Bautista in a dramatic five-hole playoff. Also in the hunt are proven winners Clyde Mondilla, Tony Lascuña, Rupert Zaragosa, Guido van der Valk and Jaraula, while Bautista continues his pursuit of the elusive victory. But for Gialon, the Iloilo stop carries a more personal significance. Back on the course where he last lifted a PGT trophy, he has another chance to turn promising form into a championship – and finally break the two-year cycle that has followed his last victory. TMT

Lady Stags charge back in five-set thriller

Lady Stags charge back in five-set thriller  

MANILA, Philippines — San Sebastian College-Recoletos turned to team captain Juna Gonzales in the closing stretch of the deciding set to complete a reverse sweep of Emilio Aguinaldo College, 16-25, 18-25, 27-25, 25-23, 15-6, in the 2026 Shakey’s Super League (SSL) Unity Cup on Sunday at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum. Gonzales scored five of the Lady Stags’ 9-0 sizzler to finish off a stunned Lady Generals side for a good start in Pool C of the league’s centerpiece competition, backed by Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, Peri-Peri Charcoal Chicken, Potato Corner and R&B Milk Tea.   Tied at 6 in the deciding frame, Gonzales opened SSC-R’s barrage with a thunderous kill. EAC had no answer to the Lady Stags’ assault as Gonzales continued to pound missiles capped by a hit that put SSC-R at match point. Lady Stags setter Patrixia Abulencia sealed the match with a well-timed kill block over Shamira Pantoja. Gonzales scored all of her 19 points on kills and added four digs for SSC-R.  Kleiner Abraham finished with 13 points while middle blocker Marianne Tayag got 12 markers on nine attacks and three kill blocks for the Lady Stags, whose victory in the two-hour, 25-minute encounter was aided by EAC’s 33 errors. SSC-R saved a match point in the third set and took a 25-24 lead. The Lady Generals forced a deuce but a net-touch infraction followed by a Liana Fabella kill gave the Lady Stags an opening to mount a comeback. Angel Joy Perez paced EAC with 17 points, 16 coming from spikes, while Cara Dayanan scored 15. Angelica Pasaol and Marinel Ramos added 14 and 11 points, respectively, for the Lady Generals. Meanwhile, National University opened its five-peat bid with a 25-14, 25-19, 25-18 demolition of San Beda University in Pool A on Saturday evening. Arah Panique unloaded nine points while Vange Alinsug, Celine Marsh and Harlyn Serneche chipped in seven each as the Lady Bulldogs joined Arellano University on top of the pool standings in the tournament, supported by Smart, PusoP.com and Summit Natural Drinking Water, with the Philippine Sports Commission, the Commission on Higher Education, Mikasa, Asics, Rigour Technology, Jersey Haven, Solar Sports and 12 Beyond Production as technical partners.   Daisy Cagas and Angel Habacon led the Lady Red Spikers with eight and seven points, respectively. Action resumes on October 9. All games are available live and on demand via PusoP.com and Solar Sports. TMT

How young is too young as child prodigies win big at Asian Games

How young is too young as child prodigies win big at Asian Games

NAGOYA — The Asian Games has crowned teenage champions before, but this edition has witnessed stunning successes by child prodigies, culminating in Yuki Kurihara standing atop the podium aged just 11. The Japanese primary school student demolished opponents three times his age on the way to a historic gold in eSports in Aichi-Nagoya. He is Japan's youngest Asian Games champion in history and almost certainly the youngest the Games have ever seen. Kurihara did not even react after winning Saturday's final in Puyo Puyo Champions, a puzzle game where players try to clear their screen of colored blobs by lining them up and popping them. The boy, who does not turn 12 until June and wants to be a train driver when he grows up, later explained that he felt "embarrassed." Kurihara's face was splashed across national newspapers on Sunday. There is no publicly available official list of the youngest medalists ever at the Games, which were first contested in 1951. But the introduction in recent editions of events intended to attract younger viewers has resulted in some eye-catching displays by children. In skateboarding, Taiwan's 12-year-old Ku Yong-yan took home silver on Friday in the "men's" park final. The winner, Japan's Izuru Nagahara, was a relative veteran at 15. Nagahara had anesthetic injections in his knee to dull the pain from injury before his winning run. Also in the skateboarding was Mazel Paris of the Philippines, who was just nine when she competed at the previous Asian Games. Asked what has changed since Hangzhou in 2023, the 12-year-old replied: "I got taller for sure." This week will see another teenage phenomenon enter the fray with India's 15-year-old cricketer Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Abuse concerns But the presence of young children competing on the international stage against adults and under expectations to win for their country comes with a caveat. Kanae Doi, Japan director at Human Rights Watch, said ahead of the Games that "moments of triumph do not come easily. They are built on years of disciplined training, often beginning in childhood." "At its best, that journey should provide children with the joy of play and competition, along with opportunities for physical, mental and personal growth," she wrote in the Japan Times. "Many young athletes instead encounter physical, verbal and even sexual abuse in the very environments meant to help them develop." She said that in Games host Japan, children "frequently experience abuse in sports training within Japanese schools, federations and elite sports programs." In 2024, the International Olympic Committee released its consensus statement on youth athletes at the Olympic Games. It noted that 50 percent of common mental health conditions first emerge before 18. Adolescent athletes are also more susceptible to certain injuries, it said. Chinese swimmer Yu Zidi became the youngest medalist in world championships history last year with bronze aged 12. Now a teenager and hotly tipped to make a splash at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics, Yu is one of the faces of the Nagoya Games with three golds, all in record times. But when it came to reporters swarming around her after races, she looked all of her 13 years. "Interviews are way harder than the race," she said. Under pressure Each sport has its own rules on minimum age. For World Aquatics, the minimum age for major international championships is 14 but exceptions can be made for younger swimmers if, like Yu, they are fast enough. Yu has spoken previously about struggling to balance her swimming with school work. Yu's team-mate Zhang Yufei, 28, a multiple Olympic gold medalist and world champion, said the youngster's stunning displays were no longer a shock. But she cautioned: "I hope she can withstand that pressure."

Pacquiao congratulates new FIDE chief, seeks reforms in PH chess

Former senator and chess enthusiast Manny Pacquiao took time to congratulate newly elected FIDE president Timur Turlov of Kazakhstan on Sunday.  Simultaneously, Pacquiao is pushing for the creation of a group that will usher in the new era in Philippine chess  Turlov's ascension to the top post as FIDE's eighth president has been viewed by Pacquiao as a welcome sign for change and development throughout the world, including the Philippines.  "The new FIDE leadership should bring brighter days for chess and I congratulate (FIDE) president Turlov. It's time to unite, gather around him, and support the sport," said Pacquaio, the only eight-weight division world boxing champion.  Pacquiao recently announced that he declined the vice president post handed to him on a silver platter by the NCFP, the local Philippine federation headed by long-standing president Prospero Pichay Jr.  Pacquiao, who plays chess with passion and regularity, has offered huge amounts of cash prizes for his annual international chess tournaments.  This year, Pacquiao said the NCFP received his money, hoping that the local chess body would sanction his tournament and have it FIDE rated.  The NCFP, however, allegedly tried to dictate terms and assign its own people to run the show for the Pacquiao chess tournament, bringing in arbiters from Manila instead of the available ones in the nearby regions. A stalemate ensued and the NCFP allegedly did not return the money to Pacquiao.  "I'm proposing to put the word 'united' in the new group that we are forming," said Pacquaio.  Professionals and community leaders from all regions in the country have also rallied to his call for change and unity. Noting the stagnation of chess development in the countryside, the group enumerated several areas of concern in Philippine chess Pacquiao also received numerous complaints of irregularities and has gotten support from lawyers, bank auditors and tournament organizers. "We're given one chance to make it good in this lifetime. It's time to make the right moves, like that on a chess board," said Pacquaio. Turlov was elected president of FIDE, the international chess federation at the FIDE General Assembly, alongside the ongoing 46th Chess Olympiad, in Samarkand, Uzbekistan.  At 38, he is the second youngest FIDE president ever elected, succeeding Arkady Dvorkovich, who served for two terms from 2018 to 2026.
