Advertising on the digital landscape can be overwhelming and time consuming for one person, or one in-house marketing team, to master. Platform options for placing website banner ads are changing and growing each day.
When working on your marketing strategy for a new campaign, you must first select how your ad will reach its destination, from native placements to Google Display to video streaming and audio streaming to social media, the list of platforms that advertisers can pick from is enormous. On top of picking the best platforms to reach your target audiences, the marketing team is also tasked with creating forms of completed ads that can perform their best in all of the differing sizes and spaces their ad may display in. Seeing an ad one time, may not be enough for a customer to take action and make a conversion happen. Creating a beautiful ad that will grab attention is no longer the marker of success for an advertising campaign. Now, an ad must retarget the customer and be seen in many spaces and places digitally; telling a cohesive story to the viewer and leaving them feeling confident, empowered, and ready to take action on your brand or product.
That is the space that programmatic advertising is hoping to fill. With Programmatic advertising, you are able to show an automatically generated version of your ad on thousands of networks across the digital landscape, including on video streaming apps like HBO Max, without the need for selecting the platforms you want to display on manually or retarget manually. Your ad will retarget the customer across platforms they are already using, and you will be able to see the entire digital journey that took place for each prospect. This means that you no longer need to silo your marketing budget into only Google advertising or only Social Media advertising for example, but instead you are able to budget each campaign as a whole and utilize all advertising networks to achieve your conversions. Like greased lightning, you will achieve conversions!
