What Are PMP and PG Deals?
Before moving forward, let’s start with the basics of knowing what these deals really are.
Private Marketplace:
Private Marketplace, is exactly what it suggests. It is a private auction, where publishers offer premium ad inventory to invited or specific advertisers. While it’s still programmatic, it empowers publishers to be more in control of their inventory and the buyers with exclusive ad spots.
Programmatic Guaranteed:
Again, as the name states, here the ad spot is guaranteed wherein, both advertisers and publishers negotiate a deal at a fixed rate. The execution here is automated, so it blends the reliability of direct deals with the efficiency of programmatic technology.
These models address some of the longstanding pain points in digital advertising, like low CPMs, lack of transparency, and ad placement concerns by offering predictability and control to both sides of the transaction.
How PMP and PG Deals Benefit Publishers?
As we already established, publishers face a lot of revenue challenges, and these programmatic models are the essential strategies to remain relevant and competitive in the digital landscape. Let’s understand how.
- Commanding Higher CPMs
Open auctions usually get really competitive, wherein advertisers seek the lowest possible CPMs. But PMP and PG change the narrative by offering premium placements and ad spots to the publishers. All this takes place in a controlled environment, thereby allowing publishers to command significantly higher rates. - Capitalizing on First-Party Data
First party data is really important to publishers and PMP and PG deals allow publishers to monetize their audience insights without sacrificing user privacy, making them compliant with emerging regulations while staying competitive. - Creating a Brand Safe Environment
Ad fraud and wrong placements are ongoing concerns, but PMP and PG deals give publishers the power to select the advertisers, which ensures that only relevant and high-quality ads are shown. For advertisers, this means they can trust that their ads will appear in safe and suitable environments, protecting their brand’s reputation.
