The Business Challenge
When advertising technology is owned by an agency, your brand is beholden to that agency. Heavy reliance on your media agency to select and provide the advertising platforms they use on your behalf—when you don’t have clarity around all relevant contractual terms—leads to a potential conflict of interest between RoAS performance and media margin.
Moreover, that lack of clarity locks your brand into working only with that agency—potentially for years—because of the risk that all of your historic first-party data might be lost, and RoAS may decline as well, when the agency leaves.
Brands can change the rules of the game: in-house the advertising technology and own all the contracts and administrative rights to the tools.
The Benefits of Solving It
When a brand gets access to technology through DELVE as a reseller, it benefits as follows:
- 100% transparent pricing
- On average, brands are able to increase their working budget by 30% just by moving technology in-house. Those savings can be re-invested in media, or put toward foundational projects such as a customer data platform.
- Access to lower-tier “wholesale” pricing from Google, Amazon, and others
- Control over your proprietary first-party data
- Flexibility to move your data to another reseller at any time without the need to rebuild campaigns
- Long-term continuity, given that the technology stack is unlikely to be deprecated
