WHAT DOES YOUR CUSTOMER LOOKS LIKE?We use each and every tactic to ensure your brand is synchronised to achieve the goals of your marketing campaign. Most media buying consists of a mix of traditional and targeted media placement activities but the exact mix depends on your brand and more specifically, where you can meaningfully connect with your ideal audiences. It also depends on the goals of your marketing campaign — whether you want to generate awareness or prompt sales of specific products and services. We tag the activity to determine which time of day, day of the week or even the channel mix is over or underperforming so we can redirect the ongoing ‘Live’ campaigns to achieve maximum results. If you have ever raised doubts about TV advertising then we would be happy to evaluate your old campaigns and suggest new improved ones.
Today, brands targeting criteria are endless. A good starting point is to build a target audience using first-party data such as a list of current customers of the product or service you want to promote. Use intelligent data visualisation and analytical tools to identify similarities and lookalike audiences who match those customer profiles.
Media Buying on TV and VOD
With so much talk about digital marketing tactics, it's important to keep traditional media like TV and Radio in your campaigns.

For this reason, you should make digital, VOD and Linear TV part of your media buying strategy.
