IAS's Agency Development Director Peter Angelis, reveals the best practices about Marketing and Advertising

Peter Angelis, Agency Development Director, Integral Ad Science elaborates on the recently launched - New IAS Signal Reporting Platform, and their MRC-accredited Quality Impression™ metric. Read on to know more about how IAS tackles the competition in the industry.

During the festive periods and sales days, digital marketers can achieve higher brand memorability and elicit positive emotional responses from consumers by activating contextual strategies.

MEDIA 7: Thanks for doing this with us! Integral Ad Science has recently launched the ‘New IAS Signal Reporting Platform’ globally. Could you please tell us more about it?
PETER ANGELIS:
IAS Signal is a unified reporting platform that delivers the data and insights advertisers and publishers need to easily manage their digital campaigns. It allows our clients to better understand their media quality while also giving them the ability to customize reporting and visualization to their needs. The updated platform establishes a strong foundation that enables us to roll out new features and enhancements to the market. By leveraging this innovative underlying tech, we can address client needs in the market today.

IAS Signal offers additional tools for managing media quality including:

  • A new user interface (UI) design with enhanced navigation to easily access the data and insights that customers need.
  • Dashboards and landing page preferences that offer advertisers the flexibility to focus on the metrics that matter most to them.
  • New reporting capabilities for advertisers, including trend charts and enhanced benchmark filters; data export functionality to download reports in one easy-to-use file; and a consolidated viewability and time-in-view dashboard for a more holistic snapshot of campaign performance.


M7: Could you please share how does Integral Ad Science manage to provide its customers with media quality transparency?
PA:
To ensure that campaigns have the potential to connect with their audiences, advertisers need transparency into the holistic quality of their impressions, and they need to be able to optimize campaigns effectively. Our MRC-accredited Quality Impression™ metric helps advertisers do just that by evaluating campaign performance and value. To be counted as a Quality Impression™, a digital ad must be viewable, by a real person, in a brand-safe and suitable environment, and within the correct geography.

In 2020, IAS partnered with Amino Payments to ‘bridge the transparency gap in programmatic’ by delivering a solution to show advertisers the true cost of their qualified media. The solution, called Total Visibility, provides advertisers with impression-level financial insights and media quality verification. Earlier this year, IAS acquired Amino Payments furthering our commitment to deliver the most comprehensive set of programmatic transparency solutions for marketers. Total Visibility helps advertisers gain transparency into their programmatic buys so they maximize their spending.

Today’s consumers are flooded with options to fill their time, own multiple devices, and are digitally immersed.



M7: With an influx of new marketing and advertising platforms rapidly, it is difficult to get the attention of the consumers. How does IAS tackle the competition?
PA:
Today’s consumers are flooded with options to fill their time, own multiple devices, and are digitally immersed. Getting their attention is more important and more difficult than before. IAS helps marketers ensure their digital campaigns are viewed by consumers in suitable environments to increase engagement and impact. According to the latest IAS research, contextual ads, which are targeted to align with the content of a webpage, are one effective way to drive brand memorability. In fact, contextual advertising can be even more effective than audience targeting that’s fueled by data from third-party cookies. More so during festive periods and sales days, digital marketers can achieve higher brand memorability and elicit positive emotional responses from consumers by activating contextual strategies.

IAS Context Control targeting provides a deeper classification of content to help advertisers tailor ads and reach relevant audiences at scale. We focus on both consumers’ evolving preferences as well as where our client's marketing dollars go as media quality measurement will need to follow. This is evident with our current approach to social platforms where we aim to partner and innovate with the leaders in the space. We have recently developed technology that’s designed for social environments, bringing brand safety and much-needed transparency for our clients.


M7: What is your perspective about the future of the marketing technology industry?
PA:
Coming from an implementation and programmatic background, I would say that digital media will only become more accessible. Marketers will have more customization and data to make decisions for their campaigns. Creating effectiveness and efficiency will reign supreme for marketers, and I firmly believe that marketing technology will help to supercharge this trend.

To ensure that campaigns have the potential to connect with their audiences, advertisers need transparency into the holistic quality of their impressions.



M7: Lastly, what advice would you give to aspiring professionals stepping into such a dynamic market today?
PA:
 It is a fast-moving market where new products and approaches are being developed all the time. My advice would be to learn or experience a variety of disciplines and figure out what skills and areas you are passionate about developing and go from there.

'Unlocking Market Potential: MyTradeZone's Dynamic Solution Bridges Supply and Demand for Businesses Everywhere,' says Bachir

February 15, 2024

Bachir Kassir, an accomplished entrepreneur and founder of MyTradeZone and WebJaguar Digital Commerce, has a notable track record in launching ventures, notably Advanced E Media, Inc., which introduced the WebJaguar Commerce and Marketing Automation platform, a software-as-a-service model. His latest endeavor, MyTradeZone.com, serves as a global B2B trade network, likened to LinkedIn for businesses, aiming to connect companies worldwide. Machintel: Please share with us your journey that led to the founding of MyTradeZone? What inspired the concept of MyTradeZone? Bachir Kassir: Some time ago, I thought about creating a B2B network to connect companies. At that time, I had just founded my digital commerce company, ‘WebJaguar’. So, I registered the domain mytradezone.com and kept the idea in the back of my mind. During my tenure as President and CEO of MyTradeZone, I dealt with over 1000 businesses, and the idea of MyTradeZone evolved even more with feedback from real customers, discussing their challenges and how MyTradeZone could help. Consequently, we developed a prototype and launched the site as a beta. Then, in December 2021, I had an exit when my company, WebJaguar, was acquired. With the freedom gained from the exit, I was able to dedicate 100% of my time to MyTradeZone, leveraging over 20 years of experience in B2B to officially launch the platform. Machintel: In your view, what are the biggest challenges facing the B2B sector today? Bachir Kassir: The biggest challenge facing the B2B sector is marketing and achieving cost-effective brand awareness for their products and services—to the right target audience. Many companies have great products and services, but the cost of exposure is expensive. Additionally, many companies, restricted by their size or location, encounter obstacles in attending various trade shows, yet they continue to offer outstanding products despite these challenges. Machintel: How does MyTradeZone aim to revolutionize B2B interactions, especially with its AI-driven matchmaking and recommendations? Bachir Kassir: MyTradeZone, think of it as a digital twin of our physical world, where every business qualifies to join. Now, MyTradeZone is the universe of companies. Within this platform, businesses are categorized, organized, and displayed according to their region, industry verticals, and more. MyTradeZone uses data science and AI algorithms for smart matchmaking between companies. We aim to revolutionize B2B interactions using this smart B2B search engine. Every business has a supply side and demand side, and because of that, MyTradeZone helps companies connect with potential customers. At the same time, MyTradeZone assists companies in procuring products and services from suppliers. Machintel: What methods are employed by MyTradeZone to ensure its users have fruitful networking experiences that result in lead generation? Bachir Kassir: When a company is on MyTradeZone, it becomes part of a vast universe of companies. At the same time, it can belong to and be part of different networking groups, trade shows, events, associations, and so on. This method ensures that users are exposed to the right targeted audience of the group they belong to. Additionally, a company can sponsor a specific group, thereby exposing itself to the members of that group. A group organizer can invite various companies to sponsor their groups, or companies can choose to sponsor a group through a self-service option. In the process, the group organizer can monetize their group. There are many free tools available, including live chat, video chat, group chat, private company notes, and other tools that ensure a fruitful networking experience. Another key feature is the request for quotation (RFQ) system, allowing anyone to submit quotations, while companies have the capability to search through these submissions. However, if a company is on the paid plan, the Business Essential plan, they get automatically alerted when someone submits an RFQ that matches their selected tags. Another incentive for users to upgrade to the paid plan, the Business Essential, is that they can select up to 20 keyword phrases of their choice, ensuring their company appears at the top of the search results. All the above and more provide both free and paid tools available for lead generation and smart matchmaking between companies. ...
