Study Methodology

9

July 2015

MethodologyThis study used three core methods to derive estimated programmatic revenues which include the following:

• A quantitative survey distributed to leading industry players, including ad tech vendors, web publishers, ad networks, mobile providers and other online media companies that generated revenue from programmatic during 2014.

• In depth interviews with senior executives at leading agencies, publishers and ad tech companies in the programmatic landscape conducted between August 2014 and March 2015.

• Publicly available corporate and industry data .

Study ScopeThe Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) retained PwC to produce an independent report and is part of an ongoing IAB mission to provide an accurate barometer of internet advertising growth.

• Altogether 46 companies participated in the study through survey or interview.

• To maintain the confidentiality of participating companies, interviews and survey data collected remain in strict confidence of PwC and only aggregate data is released.

• This report is representative of the 2014 programmatic landscape and does not address more recent programmatic developments such as the decentralization of agency trading desks (ATDs) or native programmatic.

#1 Create new value propositions

July 2015

Make sure your sales team is focused on solving problems, not just selling impressions.

“We have to get deeper into the value behind

impressions, spending time thinking about

value of time spent and how that translates to

more brand lift and business impact”

20/80“20% of the sale is upfront, 80% is the

optimization of campaigns on an ongoing basis”

#2 Magnify the value delivered

41

July 2015

1) Find the right balance of programmatic advertising in the solution/mix

2) Quantify the benefits of the changes in mix

Programmatic Fee Transparency

47

July 2015

What we’ve heard

Limited transparency around fees

being charged by the many different

actors along the programmatic

value chain has the potential to

undermine trust and liquidity in the

programmatic marketplace

IAB proposal

New Project on Programmatic Fee

Transparency to:

Explore implications of the

current fee transparency; and

Develop guidance around fee

disclosure and transparency

within programmatic

Next Steps

1) Email programmatic@iab.net to join the Working Group

2) First meeting to set out scope of work and agree on deliverables (August)
