Confused About What Makes Something Programmatic? It Needs These 3 Features

  • Programmatic, an algorithmic approach to putting media placements in front of the right user, prioritizing reach over environment.
  • Programmatic gave new life to display advertising

By Kathleen Petersen

Display media—banner ads, specifically—has seen its share of ups and downs. In the mid-90s when digital advertising became a thing, banner ads were one of the first formats.

I can imagine those initial advertising agency media teams saying to clients, ” We ran this little box on our webpage and look how many clicks it got! Look how many people used this little box to visit your site!” But then, of course, consumers got used to banner ads. They were no longer a novelty, and people stopped clicking. Instead, they started saying things like, “Those ads are annoying,” or “I don’t even notice those ads” (although studies prove they do). Everyone hated them, and display advertising budgets started to dwindle.

Enter a new buying strategy: programmatic, an algorithmic approach to putting media placements in front of the right user, prioritizing reach over environment.

Programmatic gave new life to display advertising. Suddenly banners and video weren’t as expensive. They were more sophisticated in targeting and were easier to optimize based on an end goal (translation: better than running the impressions and assuming they do something good that can’t be proven). By 2010, sophisticated digital advertisers were funneling large amounts of their display media budgets to this approach. Today it’s all media teams talk about: programmatic banners, programmatic video, programmatic native, and now, programmatic TV, programmatic out of home and programmatic mail.

Hold up, though—that’s not programmatic. Programmatic has gone beyond what it is at its roots … to a buzzword for seemingly any media with a bit of data behind it.

Programmatic has gone beyond what it is at its roots—a modernized and automated approach to media buying—to a buzzword for seemingly any media with a bit of data behind it.

There are three pieces required to make something programmatic:

The ability to combine multiple layers of data

Demographics and interest targeting have been in digital media’s corner for a while. With a programmatic approach, you can slice and dice those targeting technologies, add others and stack them all on top of each other. This includes first-, second- and third-party data. The ability to determine if a person is within our target audience based on their demographics, what their interests are, where they are geographically, how often they travel, what type of credit card they use, how long they’ve owned their home and on and on is right up the programmatic alley.

Real-time bidding

Before programmatic buying was available, display buyers would identify sites with the highest reach against their target audience and buy a set number of impressions directly from said site. This isn’t the case with programmatic. Now we’re in an exchange, bidding to get the best placements in front of the most qualified users and paying only a penny more than the next advertiser we won the bid from. Buying programmatically is much more efficient and garners a far wider reach. You’re finding the best available user, regardless of the content they’re in. Not to say that premium environment prioritized in the days of old isn’t important. White lists and premium marketplaces can get you high-quality contextual placements while using a programmatic approach.

On the fly optimization

At one time, ads ran and we served X number of impressions or ads ran, we ran X number of impressions and Y people clicked on them was the furthest extent to which you could report on your display media performance. You could take this information and adjust your strategy for next time. But with programmatic, algorithms are getting continuously smarter, and you’re able to optimize based on a multitude of factors. So now your campaign can improve as time goes on instead of waiting until the end so you know what to do better next time. Budgets can be prioritized according to what users are doing post-exposure in real-time. For example, if placement A is performing better than placement B, the algorithm will shift bids to prioritize the better performer.

These three features are possible with digital media, but at this point, it isn’t possible for traditional media channels to pull all of them off. As time and technology goes on, traditional media channels will get closer to achieving this. Television, with the use of smart TVs and OTT devices is the closest.

Data available for television targeting has become much more sophisticated in recent years, but they are lacking in real-time bidding. Most TV being bought “programmatically” is still purchased two weeks ahead of time, not at the exact second exposure is available. And while we can now use data to identify high indexing programming, the targeting isn’t 1-to-1 unless it is addressable. Out of home is in second place, and will be easier to achieve on small digital boards (think ATM or gas station screens) where a user can be identified by their phone’s proximity to the screen.

So, when you hear a media channel being referred to as programmatic, make sure the term is being used correctly. Advances in technology in digital and traditional channels that allow our campaigns to be more precise are very exciting and enticing, but check against these three features to ensure you know how your media dollars are being used.

It used to be about cutting time off content, but that’s changed

By Victor Wong

Using longer videos in strategies may be the future of this sect of the industry.

Just when creatives wrapped their heads around data and programmatic, new technology is about to reshape storytelling again. While those first disruptive trends changed display and rich media ads, video ads remained largely unaffected. In fact, video ads haven’t actually changed in decades, aside from getting shorter and running on different types of screens.

Whereas innovation used to be measured in the seconds shaved—from 60-second to 30-second to 15-second to 6-second—now we’re seeing the actual video ad formats evolve as two new trends converge: advance TV and identity. These powerful forces have already reshaped media buying as more ad dollars shift from offline to digital formats, but now they are in the midst of transforming the creative experience. Here’s how:

Pause-vertising

Creative agencies now need to begin thinking about longer form videos and know they can break up the content into mini-episodes of ads.

As more video is viewed on advance TV media formats, such as CTV and OTT services that run on computers or phones, new possibilities have emerged. Whereas linear television ads were built around filling scheduled commercial breaks, CTV and OTT experiences have built-in, widely-used pausing functionality, creating a new form of commercial break and screen layout. Imagine seeing an ad for your favorite brand appear quickly when you hit pause (or unpause) for quick breaks to respond to a message or grab a snack. Hulu and AT&T’s Xandr advertising business both plan to introduce a form of this “pause-vertising” this year.

Second screen

Another idea is second screen ads where a brand wants to take advantage of the fact that viewers are often watching TV while using another device. Nowadays, many devices can be connected through an identity graph (from a telco, a data provider, etc.) that links registration information like billing addresses for different signed in services on different devices. The possibilities now include using addressable television media buying to target TVs registered to households that have been shown to have the brand’s app so that you can run TV ads that encourage specific interaction with apps or drive users to the app for info rather than trying to cram everything into a TV spot.

Ad episodes

Perhaps an even more powerful application of identity is creating episodic ads where, rather than trying to cram all the content into one spot, you can tell a story over several ad episodes across different screens and time. Historically with TV ads and even digital video ads, brands had no idea whether a viewer had already seen an ad or not. Now with cross-device IDs, brands can keep track of whether a viewer or household had been served an episode already, and if so, to move on to the next episode in the sequence even if the user is switching between devices. Without a people-based identity graph, message sequencing would be a nightmare of repeat instances of the first ad episode because the advertiser wouldn’t realize it’s the same household or viewer.

To make these ideas possible, brands will need to work with creative agencies and video media inventory owners that have invested in addressable television, OTT and identity. Creative agencies will need to adapt creative for the new pause-vertising formats, knowing that it could be on loop until a user returns, or focus messaging around what to do during this explicit viewing break. Platform owners will need to identify what percentage of a brand’s app users it can reach with TV media so that the brand can determine if TV campaigns should be for app acquisition or designed to drive second screen usage or execute addressable buys for both. Creative agencies now need to begin thinking about longer form videos and know they can break up the content into mini-episodes of ads.

Executing these new forms of creative don’t change what makes a good story, but they do give brands new ways of telling a good story beyond the standard 30-second one-size-fits-all spots. As more video watching moves from pure linear to more digital, the industry is at a pivotal moment to reinvent the ad experience and make it fit more natively in the new technology. Only then can video ads reach their full new potential.

Advertising on quality websites more cost effective, suggests study $GOOD.ca #advertising #DigitalMarketing $TTD $RUBI $AT.ca $TRMR $FUEL

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:41 PM on Tuesday, July 3rd, 2018

 

  • According to the study, advertising in quality digital environments is 98% more likely to be placed fully above the fold than adverts on non-premium sites
  • Such placements also resulted in average uplifts for brand awareness ( 11%), ad recall ( 19%), brand perception ( 10%) and recommendation intent ( 10%)

UK – Online adverts appearing within quality branded environments are 42% more cost effective for advertisers, according to a GroupM and Newsworks study.

According to the study, advertising in quality digital environments is 98% more likely to be placed fully above the fold than adverts on non-premium sites. Such placements also resulted in average uplifts for brand awareness ( 11%), ad recall ( 19%), brand perception ( 10%) and recommendation intent ( 10%).

Quality digital environments were defined as websites where consumers have a stronger affinity with the brand, such as newsbrand publishers or sports websites.

Ads appearing on quality websites are over 58% more likely to be 100% in view for at least five seconds, according to the study, which also found that 48% of ads on the open exchange were never seen. Ads must be 50% in view for at least one second to be deemed viewable according to online industry standards.

The two companies will now use the findings from the research to build an industry-wide quality exposure factor for programmatic buying.

Vanessa Clifford, chief executive at Newsworks, said: “For years now, digital advertising has been used as a catch-all term in our industry, encompassing a myriad range of contexts. Now we have the insight to differentiate the value of a high-quality placements – such as on a newsbrand website – from general free browsing. This marks a huge step in our ongoing effectiveness programme and, working with GroupM, our aim is to make this work an actionable part of the online buying process for advertisers.”

The research, covering 394 million impressions in 84 campaigns and over 28,000 survey responses, ran between September 2017 and June 2018. Meetrics collected viewability and user engagement data for the campaign impressions and Cint distributed brand tracking surveys to panellists exposed to the campaigns.
