Forbes Sells More Intelligently By Mapping Content To Audiences

What kind of stories do people in market for a luxury SUV read? Forbes is answering that question using data, not a gut feeling, so brands can buy sponsorships and branded content based on what resonates with an audience.

Why Forbes Split Up Its Integrated Sales Team

Integrated sales teams are in vogue. Print sellers usually handle digital these days, and IO-focused digital sellers pitch in on programmatic. But Forbes, which integrated its sales team in 2009, switched back to separate lanes for separate mediums at the beginning of this year. “All of this was motivated by what we were seeing when...

Business Publishers See Growing Opportunity On LinkedIn

LinkedIn is no Facebook, but it is a growing source of referral traffic for publishers.

Teads Wants To Fix The Video Viewability Problem

The promise of “always in-view” ad formats sounds like panacea, but Parisian video supply-side platform Teads, which merged with European video platform Ebuzzing in the spring, is aggressively expanding into the US to tackle that very issue in video.

GroupM's Norman To NY Times: So, You're In The Ad Tech Business Now?
