WHAT IS PROGRAMMATIC?

Programmatic is automated buying, at a large scale, accomplished via a combination of machine-based

transactions, data, and algorithms.

DOES THAT MEAN MACHINES DO ALL THE WORK?

The process is guided by a human element, with the end goal of centralising data and generating meaningful

intelligence that buyers can act upon quickly

WHY SHOULD I CARE?

But the advent of Private Marketplaces means not all

programmatic is RTB

Business goals vs media metrics: what should you be measuring?
