Things to Consider
• If you’re big, it’s likely you already have your own direct solution
• If you’re smaller, audience extension is still possible
• Many third-party vendors offer access to exchanges. Ask them about:• reporting• site transparency• best practice case studies• their staff turnover• order entry process• # of platforms they use• flexibility in creating new audience segments
• Use your own program name rather than that of your vendor
