Many organizations, from "mom and pop" to large national companies, have at some point thought about or implemented an SEM (Search Engine Marketing) campaign for their business. Some of these implementations led to great results, while others have fallen flat on their back.

As an advertising agency, we work hard to craft media plans that are not just noteworthy, but actually achieve the goals of our clients. We don't just want to see if click-through rates are above benchmark, but also if site engagement was achieved, did the leads generated result in sales? Were more widgets sold? This reality is especially important in the auto industry where gross margins for dealers are growing ever thinner and shoppers ever savvier. We understand car dealers are in the business to sell more cars, and we're in the business to help them do that.

Holy May Batman! Is it really already May? I mean, we are halfway through May. It seems that the older we get, the quicker times flies. We can all remember when the school year seemed to last for years and then we got our first job, and Friday seemed to take forever to get here. Now the weeks seems to fly by as fast as the Japanese bullet train.

When I meet new people, the question always comes up, "What do you do for a living?" It's like in college when you first meet someone and you always ask, "what's your major?" I guess it is just human nature for us to just be curious about what other people do.

Having been in the media industry for several years, when a new buzzword starts making the rounds I wonder if it will stick around. Oftentimes, it's the latest thing everyone talks about and claims to be an expert on, but soon enough people can't even remember what the term even meant. The latest is "programmatic" or programmatic buying. This is a new buying method that was primarily developed for digital display but can also be used for pre-roll, Facebook ads, even television. The promise of programmatic is huge so I hope it's here to stay, but the biggest problem with programmatic right now is that no one seems to know exactly what it means. They just know they need to be doing it. In future posts, we'll expand on the details of the programmatic buying process but for now I thought I'd go over the basics so that we're all on the same page.
