Advertisers are facing what we call 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟳𝟬/𝟯𝟬 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺, and it’s stalling true demand generation. 💰70% of ad budgets go to search, social, and retail media: channels that capture existing demand. 📺 Only 30% goes to CTV and streaming audio: channels that actually create demand. The result? Too many brands are pouring money into clicks from people who already intended to buy, instead of fueling the interest that drives tomorrow’s growth. At a recent conference for brands that we hosted with the Association of National Advertisers at Viant HQ, our CEO & Co-Founder Tim Vanderhook summed it up perfectly: “𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙖 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙪𝙢𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙖 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙢, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙖𝙙 𝙝𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙙𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙞𝙩𝙨 𝙟𝙤𝙗. 𝙎𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙘𝙝 𝙞𝙨 𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙣𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡. 𝘽𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙩𝙮𝙥𝙚𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙣𝙖𝙢𝙚, 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮’𝙫𝙚 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙞𝙧 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙞𝙘𝙚.” It’s time to rebalance the scales, to move from capturing demand to creating it. Because real growth doesn’t come from just harvesting intent; it comes from generating it.

The Strategic Edge of Custom Ad Formats in Programmatic Advertising Not all ad formats are created equal. For high-traffic publishers, generic solutions mean leaving revenue on the table. Custom ad formats open untapped potential by tailoring placements and interactions to fit your unique audience and site architecture.

The Programmatic Supply Chain: Are You Paying for Transparency or Just Paying More? Every time an ad gets placed online, there’s an invisible maze behind it — DSPs, SSPs, ad exchanges, and countless data hops in between. But here’s the catch - every “hop” adds cost, sometimes without adding value. That’s where Supply Path Optimization (SPO) steps in - it’s like decluttering your media supply chain, helping you see exactly where your money goes and which paths deliver the best outcomes. Think of it like choosing a faster, toll-free route on Google Maps instead of taking the scenic detour that drains your budget. And while SPO ensures you’re paying for quality inventory, Attention Metrics ensure you’re getting quality engagement. Because impressions don’t pay the bills - attention does. It’s not just about how many people “saw” your ad, but how long they stayed, interacted, and remembered your brand. At BrandMo Technologies, we help brands uncover these insights — optimizing their supply paths, reducing ad wastage, and shifting focus from views to value. When brands understand their ad supply chain, they stop overspending and start outperforming. Let’s talk about making your media supply chain smarter, cleaner, and ROI-driven. 👉 DM us or visit [brandmotech.com] to discover how transparency builds trust — and trust builds results.

Friendly reminder! A lot of people judge an ad only by what they see on the surface: Purchases. ROAS. Cost per result. But the reality is this: Some ads convert because of timing. Others convert because they’re genuinely building interest. And those two things look very different in Ads Manager. Before you scale or kill anything, take a moment to check everything happening behind the main numbers: → Are people watching most of the video? → Is the click-through strong even without purchases yet? → Are you getting high-quality comments, saves, or profile taps? → Are users returning to the ad multiple times? Here’s the example we all know: Sometimes an ad shows zero purchases but delivers insane 75–95 percent video views, strong engagement, and high outbound clicks. That’s not a bad ad, that’s an ad in the phase before it becomes a winner. Cutting it too early is how most marketers lose future top performers. Your best ads aren’t always the loudest on day one. Some are gathering signals quietly, building intent, and preparing to break out. So before you make decisions, check the full picture, not just the conversion column. Future winners often start as “weak performers” to anyone who doesn’t look deeper. #MetaAds #PaidMedia #PerformanceMarketing #CreativeStrategy #DigitalMarketing #MediaBuying #GrowthMarketing #EcommerceMarketing

Beyond the "Spray and Pray": How Programmatic Advertising Makes Every Budget Smarter? Still grappling with the "spray and pray" approach of traditional advertising? Programmatic is reshaping digital marketing. The core difference: "Manual Buying" vs. "Intelligent Bidding". 🚀 3 Key Advantages of Programmatic Advertising: • Precision at Scale, No More Waste Traditional: Buys a fixed ad space, shows the same ad to all visitors of that site. Programmatic: Buys "audiences". Uses real-time data to show ads only to high-intent users, drastically reducing wasted impressions and boosting clicks/conversions. • Real-Time Optimization, Driven by Performance Traditional: Long adjustment cycles, unable to change campaigns in real-time. Programmatic: Leverages machine learning to bid, adjust bids, and serve creatives in under 100ms, ensuring budget flows to the best-performing channels and audiences, directly optimizing your ROAS. • Unmatched Scale & Efficiency Traditional: Achieving massive reach requires tedious manual negotiations and high fixed costs. Programmatic: Accesses vast cross-media inventory through a single DSP, achieving enormous reach while maintaining individual-level precision, scaling your user acquisition efficiently. #ProgrammaticAdvertising #PerformanceMarketing #DigitalMarketing #AdTech #DSP

A smart, timely piece by Haley Mitchell, which articulates what Tim & Chris Vanderhook have been pointing to all along: 👉 Channels like CTV don’t just capture demand...they create it. As consumers shift from searching to asking, discovery itself is being rewritten. Brand recall and storytelling will matter more than ever. And CTV sits right at that intersection of storytelling and impact: where brands are remembered, not just found. #CTV #Incrementality #digitalmarketing
