Editor's Notes

  • #2 I’m going to start by throwing some numbers at you to give you a sense of where the programmatic marketplace is Some will be general numbers some are based on what we’ve seen/heard from our clients Then I’m going to talk about how we have seen the agency role within programmatic – based on external and internal surveys And then lastly I’ll talk about our RTA academy program and our learning from it
  • #3  Programmatic ad spending in the US is exceeding projections, and will continue to grow at double-digit rates for the next several years Programmatic buying is becoming more popular as marketers increasingly take an audience-centric approach to their display ad buys programmatic will continue to grow as the smartest, most precise method for advertisers to pursue their audiences
  • #4 Words like Comfortable, trust, defining lead me to believe that EDUCATION is Key Education/Expertise – the ability to lead strategic dialogue with agency clients Remnant perception. This is changing, however, as publishers reduce channel conflict, win higher fill rates/eCPMs for premium inventory, adopt private exchanges etc. Measurement – new metrics outside those of traditional TV or radio channels can be an issue for some agencies. Brand safety – can programmatic buys provide proper contextual placements?  A lot of medium tier agencies don’t have an in-house programmatic team to truly understand the limits of this technology and simply act as middle men between the brand and tech supplier. Their guidance can often be not as fully-rounded as it could be -       Programmatic talent in general is hard to come by, and it’s an issue smaller agencies may grapple with more than larger ones. That problem is exacerbated because smaller shops have to hire strategically

  • #6  We've been giving it for 3 years. fun interactive. Excited. we explain it in very simple terms has helped them to do the same with their clients who have not got a great understanding of programmatic.
