New Delhi [India], February 23: In an era where data, automation, and accountability define marketing success, performance-driven strategies are reshaping how brands connect with consumers. At the forefront of this evolution is Aditya Jangid, Chairman & Managing Director of AdCounty Media, who brings over two decades of cross-industry experience spanning finance, sales, and digital media. In this interview, he shares insights on how AI, predictive analytics, and privacy-first frameworks are transforming CPS and CPL models, the growing power of regional digital audiences, and how technology-led transparency is redefining trust in performance marketing.
1.The digital marketing ecosystem is evolving rapidly with AI and automation. How do you see technology reshaping performance marketing models like CPS and CPL in the next 3–5 years?
Performance marketing is being revolutionised by AI and automation by making CPS and CPL models more efficient and easier to measure. In the next three to five years, machine learning will help improve rapid bidding processes, provide improved ways to segment target audiences, and allow for more intelligent optimization across different channels on an ongoing basis. In particular, we will see an increasing focus on providing outcome-based campaigns, as algorithms continue to enhance the ability to convert customers and decrease the overall cost of acquiring new customers. In addition, as attribution will become more accurate, companies will be able to assess their actual performance across all touchpoints. AdCounty Media considers AI to be an enabling technology that will provide scalable, data driven growth with transparency and consistent ROI for our partners.
2.With increasing focus on ROI-driven campaigns, how can brands balance performance metrics with long-term brand building in a CPS/CPL framework?
Performance can no longer exist separately from brand loyalty; they should be seen as complementary. The focus of CPS and CPL is on measurable results, while true growth is driven by long-term brand trust and recall. By utilising storytelling, content, and engagement in conjunction with performance-driven frameworks, brands can balance these two outcomes. For instance, awareness campaigns targeting the upper-funnel will create a pool of qualified audience members available for use in the lower-funnel performance. Performance-based data from campaigns allows brands to further evolve their messaging. At AdCounty Media, we work with clients on developing full funnel strategies so that brand equity can improve conversion performance and that short-term ROI can grow concurrently with long-term customer relationships, rather than working against each other.
3.Ad fraud and data transparency remain major concerns in performance marketing. What measures should companies adopt to build trust and accountability in digital campaigns?
Trust is the key to performance-based marketing, and trust is built on a foundation of accurate reporting and transparency. Companies require verification tools to help prevent ad fraud, monitor ads in real time, and have a rigorous partner vetting process in order to create an effective reporting and trackable environment. Third-party audits will assist in maintaining accountability, while well-defined reporting methodologies will help to create a strong level of trust. AdCounty Media’s investment in fraud detection technologies, transparent attribution models, and a focus on providing clean traffic sources demonstrate our commitment to establishing long-term client relationships through measurable results achieved through open communication.
As the industry continues to grow, those companies that implement sound governance standards and ethical business practices will be recognized as reputable for being credible players. For all parties in this ecosystem (brands, publishers, and consumers), a truly transparent ecosystem leads to an environment where real performance can take place and sustainable growth is possible.
4.With third-party cookies being phased out, how will first-party data and privacy-focused strategies impact affiliate and performance marketing models?
As we shift away from third-party cookies and towards privacy-centric marketing, first-party data will be integral to how affiliate and performance efforts can operate with more meaningful and consent-based interactions. Brands with strong customer relationships and sufficient amounts of credible data will have greater accuracy in targeting and higher conversion rates. The growing importance of contextual advertising and Predictive modelling can not be overlooked as well. At Adcounty Media, we have established partnerships with organisations focused on compliance with data practices, and supporting the integrity of their infrastructure; thus develop performance marketing by delivering transparency and trust to consumers alongside customer privacy and compliance with changing regulations.
5.India’s digital consumption is expanding beyond metro cities. How are regional trends and vernacular content influencing campaign strategies today?
The continued growth of digital in India is largely being driven by regional audiences (e.g., people living in non-metro), who prefer communicating with brands in their mother tongue, making Vernacular content a necessary tool for marketers looking to reach and engage with their target audiences effectively. Campaigns that reflect local culture, local behaviour and local preferences, outperform campaigns that do not reflect this. Adcounty media leverages our partnerships with regional publishers, regional influencers and hyper-local targeting, to create customised strategies to optimise the relevance of our clients’ campaign efforts. By combining extensive reach with improved conversion rates, the digital adoption boom throughout Bharat presents brands that localize their messaging and creative with tremendous new growth opportunities.
6.AI-powered tools are optimizing targeting and personalization. How can businesses leverage predictive analytics to improve campaign conversions and customer acquisition costs?
Through predictive analytics, businesses are moving from being reactive to proactive with their marketing strategies via analysing historic behaviour and real-time signals in order for artificial intelligence (AI) to identify forecasted users likely to convert based on their actions and use that information as an accurate way of allocating budget toward advertising. This creates a more accurate way of targeting customers; reduces wasted advertising costs; and lowers customer acquisition costs. Automated recommendations also aid in optimising both creative and digital channels at a faster rate. At AdCounty Media we leverage data science to continuously fine-tune our campaign strategies in order to deliver superior results to our clients. We use data science to guess what’s next and make messages that feel personal. Predictive models help us get better at turning clicks into customers without spending too much.
7.As someone with over two decades of experience across finance, sales, and digital media, how has your cross-functional background influenced the way you approach scalable growth in performance marketing?
My experience across many fields has shaped my approach to growth which I present with strategy and execution in mind. In finance I learned the value of discipline around profit and risk management which sales taught me to put the customer forward in all we do. Digital media gave me the chance to be flexible and come up with solutions very quickly. What I do is bring those three perspectives together to create sustainable growth which stands the test of time as opposed to going for quick wins. At AdCounty Media we are into creating real value through building strong partnerships and implementing technology which improves what we do. We have a cross functional approach which we use to develop a balanced, accountable growth strategy that also plays into the long term stakeholder interest. This is key in our performance marketing strategy.
8.Looking ahead, what emerging trends or innovations – such as influencer commerce, programmatic buying, or performance-driven creator partnerships – will define the next phase of digital marketing in India?
Digital marketing in India is growing because of better online shopping and a bigger group of content creators. Influencer marketing, targeted ads, and when creators work with brands to get specific results are all helping to make marketing more responsible and easier to track. At AdCounty Media, we bring tech, data, and creativity together to make campaigns that grab attention and get results. We use advanced analytics and programmatic tools to help brands meet the right people at the right moment, turning content into real business wins.
9.With Adcounty Media’s IPO journey, how do you plan to leverage the listing to accelerate technological innovation and expand your performance marketing capabilities?
This marks an important milestone for us, as the IPO allows us to have the capital and credibility to drive innovation. We will continue to develop our technology infrastructure by investing heavily in AI-powered solutions and utilizing advanced analytics in order to create successful campaigns. Listing will enable us to create further partnership options, access to new markets and build our existing talent pool. The investments we will make will contribute positively to the added value of our clients and support us in providing responsible growth. Our efforts at AdCounty Media remain focused on the development of long-term sustainable solutions that improve performance. The IPO provides us with a strong foundation from which to pursue long-term growth with discipline and a visionary strategy.
10.How will going public enhance transparency, governance, and investor confidence, especially in a performance-driven digital marketing business model like CPS and CPL?
Being listed on the stock market will help us keep our promise to be open, honest, and responsible. As a public company, we will have to follow rules and regulations and report on our finances more carefully through stricter auditing processes. This will help build trust in our business with all of our stakeholders. Stakeholder confidence is especially important in the performance marketing space because accountability and measurable results are key success factors. By offering complete and transparent disclosure and using a strong governance structure, we will provide confidence to our clients, partners and investors to trust our operations.Goingpublic is not only AdCounty Media’s financial goal but also offers us the chance to build lasting business partnerships and improve our reputation. In the end, we believe that greater openness will lead to steady expansion and ongoing leadership in performance marketing.
As digital ecosystems grow more intelligent, measurable, and privacy-centric, the future of performance marketing will belong to organizations that combine innovation with accountability. Aditya Jangid emphasizes that sustainable growth lies in balancing short-term ROI with long-term brand equity, backed by strong governance and data-driven strategy. Following its successful public listing, AdCounty Media is now focused on accelerating technological investments, strengthening partnerships, and setting new benchmarks for transparency, efficiency, and performance in India’s evolving digital marketing landscape.

Experts from academic, medical and research institutions shared insights on how palm oil performs from a health and functional perspective. Presentations covered topics such as cholesterol metabolism, heart and liver health, neurological aspects, stability during high-heat cooking, food safety testing and quality standards. Speakers highlighted that overall health depends more on balanced diets, lifestyle habits and moderation than on avoiding or focusing on any one specific edible oil. 
The seminar also discussed India’s edible oil situation. As the country works towards reducing import dependence by expanding oil palm cultivation, experts noted that oil palm is one of the highest-yielding oil crops in the world, producing more oil per hectare than most other oilseeds. Given India’s growing demand for edible oils, palm oil offers a practical and scalable solution for both nutritional use and food processing needs. Strengthening domestic oil palm cultivation through scientific farming practices and supportive policies was seen as an important step toward improving long-term edible oil self-reliance.
