This conversation will probe how marketers with the best data will be able to use programmatic buying to effectively and affordably reach the exact audiences they want. We'll also touch on how the maturation of mobile will make it more attractive to major brands who have only been dipping their toes to this point.

5. The Challenges
§ Competition is stiff
- More than 2.5 million apps in App Store and Google Play
§ Mobile is different – it’s an operating system
- Apps dominate
- Why attribution is so difficult
- Handling of data very different
§ Desktop players haven’t been able to
make the transition
- They need to rebuild their tech stack from
ground up

data can provide highly actionable
insights

13. What Is Programmatic Buying?
Strata, Apr. 2014
Over 60% of ad agency execs feel there’s no accurate,
unified definition of programmatic buying.
Strata, Apr. 2014
Only 12% trust it to properly and accurately execute
their ad orders.
Assn of Nat Advertisers/Forrester, Mar. 2014
67% are unaware of it, don't understand it, or need to
learn more before using.
14. Programmatic Buying - The Many Definitions
“Programmatic buying
describes online display
advertising that is
aggregated, booked,
flighted, analyzed and
optimized via demand
side software interfaces
and algorithms.”
Andy Cocker
COO/Co-Founder
Infectous Media
“Generally, programmatic
buying is similar to
programmatic stock
trading insofar as buying
happens as the result of
a computational proxy
bidding on behalf of
human masters.”
George John
CEO, Rocket Fuel
Philip Smolin
SVP, Turn
“Programmatic buying enables
marketers to consolidate
customer interactions across
multiple channels into a single
dashboard, and then use that
dashboard to develop a single,
overarching strategy about how
to best engage (and continue
the conversation) with those
audiences.”
15. Fiksu Says…
Micah Adler
Fiksu CEO
“Programmatic buying is anytime you are
using an automated process to make
placement decisions of buying inventory in
a closed loop fashion, and this goes
beyond just RTB (real-time bidding).”
16. Programmatic Buying: Beyond RTB
§ 40% of Fiksu’s buying is done programmatically, and
includes:
§ RTB on mobile inventory from top exchanges
§ Unique programmatic access to Facebook
and Twitter
§ Programmatic access to other networks as they are
released
§ Google AdWords, incentivized and other banner
networks

20. Audience Attention (Not Budgets) Shifting
20% of total media time is spent on mobile,
but mobile accounts for only 4% of ad spend.
Mary Meeker, May 2014
21. But You Can Buy Audiences on Mobile, Too
§ Context (where an ad is being displayed)
§ Demographics (age, gender, etc.)
§ Real-time data (device, platform, location, OS)
§ Interests (who someone follows or likes, what
they’re talking about, what they search for, etc.)
With actionable data and programmatic access, mobile audiences can
currently be reached based on:
22. Social: Providing Deep Audience Insights
§ Facebook and Twitter are two of
the best sources to precisely
target audiences
§ Actionable data on everything
from age, gender, marital status,
interests and more!
23. Audiences Reached Through Retargeting
§ Retargeting allows you to reach specific
segments of your app’s current user
base including:
§ Lapsed users - encourage them to
open your app
§ Purchasing and/ or active users -
highlight a new feature or product in
your app
24. The Future of Audience Buying
§ With the right data and technologies, marketers
will soon be able to segment and target based on
broader behaviors
§ Example: A travel company could target users
who have downloaded multiple travel apps
§ As this develops, everyone, including leading
brands, will begin to see mobile as a powerful
medium to reach precise audiences at scale
