KEY TYPES OF TARGETING
It is rule of thumb that the more specific we target, the higher the cost. For example, if we geo-target, this would incur an extra premium. We are also able to target either broad or specific sections across websites. Creative formats also impacts on cost.
• Run of Network (RON) – this is a very cheap option and is available from publishers with a portfolio of websites. The advantage of this method is that we receive a very low CPM, however the target audience may not always be relevant.
• Run of Site (ROS) – ROS is used when we want to reach users who are interested in a service but we don’t want to target a specific criteria. For example a sport website.
• Run of Channel (ROC) – means creative will appear anywhere within a category on a web site.
• Specific Sections - when we want to target a specific audience, we will advertise on chosen sections of a website such as Entertainment or Home & Garden

KEY IMPLEMENTATION INSIGHTS
COMMON OBJECTIONS TO DIGITAL
SUMMARY• Digital media is complex and time consuming work that confuses non
digital agency and client staffers. Only 5% of media spend is digital.• Most problems occur due to poor expectation management and
attention to detail in digital media.• The main opportunity/challenge with digital is its accountability and
interactivity. Understand these two concepts and you understand digital.
• The only constant in digital is change. Every 2-3 years a hot new digital concept/technology/platform arrives. You must constantly follow industry trends and rethink what is possible.
• 2.0 media like social and mobile are different to 1.0 media like banners and email. ‘Advertising’ does not work in 2.0 media.
• China netizens require custom digital media strategy, importing global template does not work.
• Strategy is not a list of tactics. A strategy is rationale for why a specific combination of tactics will lead to a desired outcome
