Fluency - Advertising Automation Platform

Our team had a rowdy-howdy good time in Austin at Amazon #UnBoxed! 🤠 We loved meeting up with other Amazon Ad Partners and seeing where this exciting channel is heading. One major theme that emerged was the increasing complexity and competitiveness in digital advertising. With consumers typically using over 20 touchpoints before making a purchase 🤯 it's more critical than ever that advertisers connect with their customers across the entire journey. As one of four finalists for the Amazon Technology Innovation Award (out of 2,500+ Amazon Ads Partners!), we're proud to be at the forefront of helping advertisers automate the launch and optimization of Amazon Ads . 🏆 Thinking about bringing Amazon Ads into your channel mix? Send us a DM 📬 We'll show you how to expand to this exciting channel without increasing headcount or effort.

Agency owners: want to retain your workforce in 2025? With the marketing and advertising industry clocking in at nearly a 70% burnout rate 🌋 (Statista, 2019), agencies need more impactful solutions to reverse employee attrition trends. 💡 Try this advice from a leading automotive agency: “One of our core goals is to automate all low-value actions so the team…can have more client conversations and more high-value impact to their accounts and portfolio." The result? The agency reduced campaign launch and management time by 90%, giving employees more meaningful work that engaged both the agency team and their customers. 🤝 "No longer do they have to go hunt or go find for something that's broken... It's a lot more fun to do strategic work and not just cutting and pasting and fixing things. They also have more client conversations, which a lot of our ad reps just love doing." 💕 Read more about key 2025 automation strategies in our latest blog post: https://lnkd.in/eqNfynJA

When the cookies crumble, will you be ready? 🍪 25% of browsers are already cookie-less and that number is expected to grow. Reduced reliance on cookies for attribution and targeting can be a good thing. Advertisers who leverage data more effectively stand to gain a major advantage. First-party data can play a pivotal role in prospecting by identifying common attributes within audiences to expand targeting beyond those who have already taken action. Automation tools can sync data sources directly to publishers, enabling you to activate your valuable primary data sets without relying on cookies. 🧑🍳 Learn more about this emerging advertising data trend—and three others—on our blog, featuring key takeaways from the #AW360 podcast episode conversation with Taren King, Director of Product for Intuit SMB Media Labs, and Eric Mayhew, CPO and President at Fluency.

Last night, our team had the pleasure of serving at Spectrum VT’s Empty Bowl Dinner at the University of Vermont campus! 🥣 💙 This amazing event, held every October, brings together the community for an evening of delicious soups donated by local restaurants. Guests choose a handmade ceramic bowl to take home while supporting youth facing homelessness and other challenges in our community. Spectrum helps teenagers and young adults through shelter, counseling, workforce readiness, and other services. We're proud to be part of an event that raised over $100,000 for Spectrum Youth and Family Services and the incredible young people they serve. #CommunityFirst #GivingBack #SupportLocal

POV: you’re sitting in the crowd at #AWNewYork24 listening to a panel session on how to improve your advertising operations capacity. You may be feeling a little something like:  ⚡ 🤯 💭 💡 🤩 🚀 🔋 Here are some things we took away from the conversation and audience Q&A: ✨ Advertisers are sitting on a wealth of valuable data for improving targeting and conversion, but few ad teams have the time or resources to even think about using data in their daily work. ✨ Manually building campaigns is A LOT of work. Like, a LOT. ✨ It also takes a loooooooooong time to build multi-channel campaigns, even if your strategists are the best in the business. ✨ Automation isn’t a threat to your workforce: it handles the boring (but important) stuff so your people can do high-value work that’s more creative and strategic than simply executing tasks. If you didn’t get a chance to join, what questions would you have asked during the session? Ask in the comments and we’ll get back to you! Thank you again to everyone who joined Eric Mayhew, Heather Chevalley, and Ben Gilbert in-person at Advertising Week New York! #awnewyork24 #advertisingautomation
