Background & Context

*This is a thought starter, not a how-to

Page 7: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

ONE

Programmatic is an operational and process change.

It is not a marketing or advertising strategy.

Page 8: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

TWO

Programmatic is hard.

But that’s OK, as long as you are ready for it to be hard.

Page 9: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

THREE

You are going to get what you pay for.

There are no bad impressions, just bad valuations.

Classic “What Type Are You” Split

Brand Advertisers Direct Response (“DR”) Advertisers

Page 12: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

Classic “What Type Are You” Split

The split doesn’t exist anymore. Everything you do has a result.

Sometimes that result is clear and direct. Sometimes it is not.

The key is measuring the results you want to get appropriately.

Managing Viewability & Fraud

Page 26: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

Death & Taxes

1. Some of your ads will be served via fraudulent actors.

2. Some of your ads won’t be seen by humans.

3. Most of your ads won’t get clicked on.

Fighting Ad Fraud

Page 28: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

Measuring Ad Viewability

The Media Ratings Council (MRC) has defined a viewable ad as:

• A display impression with 50% of the ad in-view for 1 second.

• A video impression with 50% of the ad in-view and 2 continuous seconds of playtime.

Page 29: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

Measuring Ad Viewability

Plus, there are more problems:

• Viewability Metrics come out differently depending on which tech vendor used.

• Video Viewability can only be measured on ~30% of pre-roll impressions.

Page 30: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

The Grand Tale of Fraud & ViewabilityThese are stories we tell as an industry to get approval from the people

that need to give it.

What tech companies you work with, how you work with them, and how much you work on Fraud and Viewability is going to depend on the

story you need to tell in your organizations.

Targeting, Waste & The Plump Middle

Page 32: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

John Wanamaker’s Industry Obsession“Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don't

know which half.”

Digital advertising solves Wannamaker’s dilemma.

The Digital Advertising Targeting Promise

Page 34: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

The Incredible Shrinking Target

Optimization 1: Underperforming Domains

Optimization 2: Adjusting Behavioral Segments

Optimization 3: Removing Secondary Target

Optimization 4: More Domains Axed

Optimization 5: Time of Day/Day of Week

Optimization 6: Adding details against primary

target

Page 35: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

The Wanamaker Inversion

“The best advertising is written for a very small group of people, and the rest of us just happen to overhear it.”

Page 36: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

Finding The Plump Middle

1. Take results from your most successful, mildly successful and not successful campaigns.

2. Find the minimal pairs of data that indicate success/failure.

3. Use those data to build new segments to target.

Page 37: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

Never Stop Prospecting

Programmatic has the data – and capabilities to learn from that data – to prospect smarter and more efficiently.

Data Management

Page 39: Building a Brand With Programmatic Advertising

Data Is Your Most Valuable Marketing Asset

“Grocery store chain Kroger pulls in over $100 million a year* selling data to its CPG vendors.”-Gartner Analyst Douglas Laney via WSJ, 10/12/14

How Deep Can You Go?

• Level 1: Basic Site Traffic Data• Pixel your owned properties and use that data to do simple segmentation,

targeting, creative decisioning and audience modeling.

• Level 2: Custom Site Traffic Data• Same as above, but data is flexible so custom segments can be built and

traffic patterns analyzed in near realtime.

• Level 3: Integrate wider Organizational Data• Use CRM databases, digital sales/conversion data, point-of-sale data,

customer data profiles, etc.

Considerations In-House Outside Partner

Skillset/Talent Need to Build/Hire. Can be difficult to acquire the necessary talent.

Talent & skillset already exists.

Technology Need to evaluate and select technology partners. Need to integrate into existing Corporate IT and Technology infrastructure.

Technology is already established (built, bought or partnered). Still need to integrate into corporate infrastructure, but that scope is smaller.

Transparency & Ownership Fully transparent. Full ownership of contracts, relationships and data.

Some costs not transparent. Contracts, relationship and all non-1st-party data owned by outside company.

Cost Significant initial investment. Long-term cost savings.

Lower initial investment. Continued premiums over long-term.

Speed to Market, Industry “Grease”,Flexibility & Connections

Less flexibility once programmatic ecosystem is established. Slower speed to market. Less capability to grease the industry wheels.

More flexibility, faster speed to market, more capability to get favors/priority.
