Digital media channels

Digital media channels include advertising on digital platforms such as Connected TV, online display advertising and digital outdoor advertising. These channels offer a wide reach and the possibility to reach a specific target group with high precision.

Connected TV

Digital TV advertising in streamed content is a powerful way to reach a wide audience. With Connected TV, ads can be placed on popular streaming services such as Max, TV4, Discovery+, Pluto TV and Samsung TV. This means your ads appear when viewers are consuming their favorite material, increasing brand exposure and engagement. 

The advantage of Connected TV is that it offers high precision and targeting, making it possible to customize ads based on viewers' demographics, behavior and interests. In addition, this channel provides detailed measurements and reports that make it easy to evaluate campaign effectiveness and adjust strategy in real time.

Online display

Banner advertising on websites and apps is a proven method to increase online visibility. Display ads can be static or animated and are strategically placed on websites and apps to reach your target audience as they browse. 

To maximize the impact of display ads, programmatic advertising is used, which means that ads are bought and placed automatically based on user data. This ensures that ads are shown to the right people at the right time. In addition, remarketing techniques can be used to reach people who have previously shown interest in your products or services, increasing the chance of conversion.

Digital outdoor advertising

Video spots on outdoor screens are a modern and effective form of outdoor advertising. These screens are placed in strategic locations such as shopping malls, train stations and city centers, where they capture the attention of a large amount of people. 

Digital outdoor advertising combines the benefits of traditional outdoor advertising with the flexibility and targeting of digital technology. This makes it possible to quickly adapt messages and maximize exposure. In addition, these screens can display dynamic content, including real-time updates and interactive elements, engaging and interacting with audiences in a more personalized way.

Audio and video advertising

Audio and video advertising includes advertising on podcast and music platforms and within gaming environments. These channels engage listeners and viewers in a safe environment, increasing brand awareness and engagement.

Podcast & Music

Audio spots in podcast and music platforms are an effective channel to reach listeners in an intimate and engaging environment. Podcasts have a loyal and attentive audience, making this channel ideal for brand building.

Ads in podcasts can be designed to blend in with the content, creating a natural and credible experience for listeners. Music platforms such as Spotify, Acast and Bauer also offer the possibility to reach listeners with audio ads between songs. These ads can be targeted based on the listener's music preferences and behavior, increasing the relevance and impact of the message.

In-Game advertising

In-game advertising is an innovative way to reach a young and engaged audience. In-game advertising involves placing advertisements directly in the game, either as virtual billboards, sponsored events or rewards. This type of advertising is highly effective as it is naturally integrated into the game experience and is therefore less intrusive. 

In addition, gamers tend to spend a lot of time in the gaming world, giving brands more opportunities to build recognition and loyalty. Here, advanced techniques are used to ensure that ads are relevant and engaging to players.

Advanced technology & optimization

Advanced technology advertising and optimization uses AI and programmatic deals to optimize campaigns in real time. This ensures your ads reach the right audience at the right time, maximizing your ROI.

AI advertising

Machine learning advertising is a revolutionary approach to optimizing campaigns. Using AI, you can analyze huge amounts of data to predict which messages, formats and channels will work best for your target audience. 

AI analytics can identify patterns and trends that human analysts might miss, ensuring that every penny is spent as effectively as possible. With real-time optimization, campaigns can be dynamically adjusted to improve performance and maximize return on investment (ROI).

Programmatic advertising

Automated ad buying, or programmatic deals, means that ads are bought and placed automatically using software. This allows for fast and accurate targeting as well as real-time optimization of ad placements and budgets. 

Programmatic advertising uses advanced data analytics to match ads with the most relevant audiences, increasing the chances of engagement and conversion. This system also provides detailed reports and insights, making it easier to evaluate campaign effectiveness and adjust strategy as needed.

Personalized & integrated advertising

Personalized and integrated advertising means creating native ads that blend into the website environment as well as producing engaging ad materials. This increases user engagement and improves brand perception.

Native advertising

Ad content that blends into the website's environment creates a more natural and less intrusive experience for users. Native advertising means that ads are designed to match the look and feel of the platform on which they appear, making them more attractive and engaging. This increases the likelihood of users interacting with the ads and improves brand perception. 

Native ads can be articles, videos, infographics or other types of content relevant to the target audience.
