Check out some of the highlights here or see more on HostingAdvice. On the problems modern advertisers face in digital marketing: “All too often in the digital realm, advertisers are going to several different networks or DSPs to try and run their ads and then have to learn the nuances of each, set up individual campaigns in each, go through reporting for each individually, and it just takes way too much time and creates margin for error,” said Travis Champ… “Whether the advertiser is a direct brand or agency, managing many different campaigns across many different DSPs gets overwhelming quickly.

Genius Monkey is teaming up with StatSocial, a platform that leverages social profile audience data to give users next-level insights into their engaged audience, their affinities and other persona profiles they associate with – allowing Genius Monkey platform users to have thousands of more data points on their audience to further optimize campaigns and overall marketing efforts.

Many major Connected TV publishers such as Netflix and DIRECTV are making exclusive deals with DSP’s, meaning their inventory can be bought through one DSP. This could be affecting your campaigns. Why? Because most programmatic platforms and agencies today have one DSP as their backend servicer to serve ads. If they are only using one DSP they are potentially missing out on premium placements. Since Genius Monkey has both Xandr and Yahoo DSP already within its Meta-DSP platform, we are included in both exclusivity deals.

First, there came the DSP. Now, a somewhat newer term has emerged following the release of new technology—Meta-DSP. Don’t worry about trying to keep up and understanding it all—we’ll do it for you, right here in this blog. Out of pure ease and the attempt of saving money, many advertisers choose to go with a single DSP, which limits their ad platform to the placements and costs that the DSP is able to provide at the time of the ad placement bid.
