News360 is working with publishers to deliver a feed of branded thought leadership stories from top tier brands via SDK. It's basically a simple ad call but it's not your basic ad... these thought leadership stories are real content, marked as "Promoted by ___" and deliver very high eCPM's.

Promoted Content Success –
The Coca-Cola Company enlisted the help of News360 to promote stories from its
thought leadership blog, Coca-Cola Journey. Journey covers topics ranging from
start-ups to recipes to education… and even how to carve a Halloween pumpkin
in the shape of the iconic Coca-Cola bottle! News360’s personalization
algorithms promoted each story to users who would find it contextually relevant to
their interests. Combining Coca-Cola’s powerful brand with News360’s worldwide
audience generated unique CTR’s as high as 8% for some stories and reading
times that lasted up to a minute or longer!

The Coca-Cola Company started the Journey
blog last year as a way to generate and
maintain engagement with fans that went
beyond the beverages they already knew and
loved. News360’s ability to deliver new
readers and generate new engagement with
our brand has far exceeded our expectations!
