The evolving digital advertising landscape has posed several challenges for marketers. Media buyers struggle with addressability, reduced visibility of valuable inventory, and pricing and technology efficiency constraints. These issues make it difficult to achieve campaign goals at scale. To solve these challenges, Lotame Curation offers a more efficient and effective way for media buyers to deliver benchmark-beating campaign results. It unlocks unique supply via Private Marketplaces (PMP) and uses differentiated audience insights to scale performance.

• Valuable Insights: Delivers unique insights and Ah-has about prospective consumers, powered by Lotame Analytics, to address hard-to-reach audiences via data-driven and contextual targeting PMP packages.
• Efficiency and Cost Reduction: Cuts down operational workload and data/tech fees, allowing agencies to deliver campaigns quickly and effectively, while increasing working media dollars.

During early trials of Lotame Curation, results showed 20% better campaign efficiencies, improved video completion rates by 15%, and 21% higher viewability.
