DIGITAL ADVERTISING LANDSCAPE

Digital Advertising: Uses the Internet to deliver promotional/marketing messages to consumers. Digital advertising frequently involves both a publisher, who integrates advertisements into its online content, and an advertiser, who provides the advertisements to be displayed on the publisher ’s content.

A method of buying digital media inventory straight from a publisher whose advantages include:

• Access to site’s full inventory • Premium inventory & placements• Share of voice • Custom sponsorships & integrations• Access to publisher-only resources• Creative flexibility

HOW TMK DOES SITE DIRECT

We believe in quality over quantity

We recommend only going several publishers deep with Site Direct to maximize the benefits of the

channel

Leverage Site Direct with what it’s best for, reaching a high composition of a specific target

Otherwise, Programmatic is an effective, efficient audience buying channel

seeing that free content?

SOCIAL

HOW TMK DOES SOCIAL

We believe a sound social strategy is one that recognizes paid, earned and owned channels as

part of an interconnected program.

Siloed strategies that treat each channel independently are rarely as effective as a

comprehensive approach.

Within the paid social channel, we tend to organize our activities in terms of three broad categories:

• Targeting• Amplification• Optimization

TARGETING

We have broad experience buying media across Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and the major and minor social

publishers. We work with top-tier managed ad buying platforms with full Publishing API and listening ability. We employ audience interest targeting, based on real-time

conversation data (when available) and refined by demographic targeting, to target ads to existing and

potential audiences.

AMPLIFICATION

We believe that one of the best uses of paid social media is amplification of owned / organic postings, and that

these amplifications need to happen within a relatively short window (often 24 hours) after the original post. Our goal is to achieve maximum engagement at the lowest

cost-per-engagement.

OPTIMIZATION

We take a goal-based approach to paid social campaigns, employing the bidding and optimization engines of our

partners to focus campaign budgets toward best performing segments.

DIGITAL PLANNING

STEP 1: STRATEGY

•Determine what the objective of the effort is•How much are you looking to spend •What support points justify the need for Site Direct, Video and Social•Determine specifically the role for each digital channel•How is the campaign / partner being bought•How will success be determined

STEP 2: SELECTION

•Who are you trying to reach•What is the creative: standard, rich, etc; can it leverage partner context, category, niche•Has the publisher/partner performed in the past•Determine what partners should be included in the RFP, and send out RFP’s

STEP 3: NEGOTIATION

•Upon RFP, determine if costs fit within range•Is the cost competitive within the marketplace / versus similar partners•Does the partner know your KPI’s and does the RFP speak to them; is the proposal cookie cutter•Construct recommendation•Compile all relevant specs / work with Account & Creative teams•Ensure T’s & C’s are clear

STEP 4: AD SERVING

•Make sure you have all assets in hand and creative rotations set•Generate tags•Traffic buy

•Ensure confirmation

STEP 5: EVALUTION

•Pull performance results from ad server or through 3rd party vendor •Match ad performance to client specific KPI’s and client provided goals

•Generate performance reports as needed •Provide recommendations for campaign improvement

STEP 6: OPTIMIZATION

•Across all channels, it’s aways important to interrogate results and always look to improve

IN SUMMARY

1. Leverage what each tactic does best when making purchase decisions

2. Video is growing beyond just a creative unit; consider video’s impact as a lead tactic

3. While a channel, social is about employing the right strategies as much as it is about executing the right tactcs
