Phased Implementation

Optimised Ad Ops

We addressed the platform’s need to manage and track hundreds of campaigns at scale. Voiro’s ad ops module also allowed the platform to onboard multiple SMB and gaming clients.

Optimised Ad Sales

We optimised the platform’s ad sales that allowed them to accomplish two things
a) bring all data under one roof and allow sales to use historical data to make better deals and
b) allow sales to capture and validate data all the way to the point of delivery, performance attribution, and billing.

Optimised Ad Monetisation

Automated the entire ad monetisation workflow allowing the platform to make every decision driven by data backed insights to offer better deals to advertisers, track revenue against specific targets and KPIs, and slice and dice data to get a granular understanding of the ad business.
