If you want to get your message out there with the perfect punch, it pays (literally) to plan ahead. Maximizing your digital advertising success isn’t a guessing game—it’s a calculated strategy that starts with leveraging the power of a detailed media plan.
From beginning to end, a media plan sets the stage for your campaign and ad buys, helping you determine how, when, and where your audience will receive your brand’s next message.
When you work with a media planning & buying strategist for your campaign, you can stay ahead of the curve with impactful benefits that transform results in significant ways.
Getting your ads run on YouTube TV, Hulu, or any other hotshot OTT provider may be your campaign’s end-all-be-all, but you won’t get there without help from an expert media planner.
Offering valuable market and competitor research, premium inventory, complete transparency, and more, media planners keep you informed and efficient throughout your campaign planning period, providing your team with a variety of compelling benefits, such as:
Data is the primary ingredient of a media plan, just like any advertising campaign.
However, media planning isn’t just data science—it’s a fine art that allows you to take the latest campaign and audience insights and drive your marketing efforts in an informed way, ensuring better results at every turn.
Media planners are pioneers in this strategic realm of campaign oversight, identifying trends and patterns using historical data obtained directly from media vendors and previous campaigns executed within your vertical. With intuitive media planning tools, media planners can effectively analyze the performance and results of your past marketing efforts to apply findings to your future strategies.
In doing so, you’ll be able to improve your targeting and increase the chance at an improved overall ROI based on data that keeps on compiling.
The Digital Remedy Approach: We leverage data across a multitude of verticals to base your proposals on. With 23 years of experience running successful media campaigns under our belts, we’ve put together tens of thousands of proposals and counting. We’ve worked with agencies and clients, big and small, on a broad array of digital campaigns focused on a spectrum of KPIs. Our access to historical data can help inform your proposals and springboard off use cases we’ve seen work—and work well—in the past. This approach vs. the blind “let’s throw it all at the wall and see what sticks” angle helps maximize your budget and see the results in your ROI.
CTV ad spend is growing, with a 14.4% uptick expected in 2023. As more marketers race to programmatic TV and media buying options become more available than ever before, it’s never been so important to invest in high-quality, brand-safe video inventory.
With premium inventory, you can ensure your ads are being run on reputable platforms with high levels of traffic and engagement, mitigating the risk of wasting your budget on a low-quality site that offers no return.
Media planners take the guesswork out of primary inventory, establishing relationships with platforms and identifying the right placement for your message so that you don’t have to. With a media planning agency in your corner, you can avoid high publisher direct minimums and open exchanges that cause financial and reputational harm to your brand, all while working with a team that ensures your message runs in the most optimal setting.

You’re a marketer that has a goal over your head. Unless you have a specific media planning background and are fully up to date with the capabilities of a full-service programmatic agency, trying to plan media will be quite stressful and time-consuming.

Think of us as your guiding light, helping you avoid shortfalls or mistakes and quickly pivot and revise should the media not produce the results you were after.
