An Intro to DSPs with Richard Lowden - FiredUp! Podcast

In this episode of the FiredUp! podcast, Richard Lowden shares how DSPs automate the buying and placement of ads, ensuring startups are efficiently reaching their target audience, optimizing their budget, and getting a better ROI.

Richard and Morgan discuss:

  • - Transparency and portability are essential for the advertiser to fully understand campaign performance and make informed decisions.
  • - Attribution can be complex and marketers need to work with DSPs that understand it enough to take a customized approach. - The pending demise of third-party cookies presents challenges but is ultimately not as impactful as it’s made out to be. - Dark funnel impact will likely increase with the rise of chatbots, but sophisticated marketers can still connect audience behaviors to brand awareness efforts. - AI presents potential benefits for programmatic advertising in content creation and audience targeting.
