Before we start

Common questions.

Is programmatic right for every budget?

No. We assess the objective, scale, creative, measurement and access requirements before recommending a channel.

Is this the same as a Google Ads Display campaign?

The services can overlap in format but involve different platforms and buying arrangements. The scope should make the platform, access and campaign responsibilities clear.

Are platform and media costs included?

Media spend, platform access and any third-party costs are confirmed separately from management and production fees.
