Editor's Notes
Internet Connection: given access to anyone, anywhere. It doesn’t matter where in the world you are, or your background, age, whether you are rich or poor. Everyone has equal access to empowerment. I would go on and on and on about how the internet and ability to search impacts the individual, but let’s talk about the shift to the individual impacts brands.
The success that SEARCH has brought in both Branding and Direct Response through on-line media management has driven the innovation by the Engines to create on-line Platforms for cross channel marketing.
These Platforms give Media Manager’s 1 tool & set of rules to utilize and bring to the buying process better insight into the correlation between media channels. Because Engines have worked hard to produce APIs, Agencies & Technology companies have been able to build Bid Mgt Tools with 1 set of Rules and Interface. Open APIs will transform display and other forms of media buying to become search like (auction Based) “Search Type Dynamics”. Extending the Accountability, Efficiency and Optimization from Search Engine Marketing to the entire Market. This drives the prominence for SEMs, for bringing credibility to media buying. THIS IS EXCITING:. Our knowledge and Tools are transforming the way media will be bought and sold in the future.
We are just now starting to see this transformation with Display buying. Efficiencies are gained when breaking down the silo’s with Search and Display and Collaborating amongst advertisers divisions and agencies.
Program Management Program Management of Digital Integration: With the integration of all digital assets across an advertisers many stakeholders (business units, locations globally, services, budgets, and multiple agencies has to be sorted out. ) Who will drive the program management of collecting stakeholder goals and objectives and ensure the efficiencies of integrating digital assets and advertising supports the overall corporate vision? Search Agencies can drive this process through Program Mgt.
