A360media Drives 10x Lift In Revenue

a360media was able to leverage the Nativo Enterprise Ad Platform to replace their current ad platform and Google Ad Manager for sales enablement, improve efficiency and prioritize demand.

The Enterprise Ad Platform allowed my team to implement a replacement solution, onboard into a completely new platform, and get a campaign live for a major advertiser within a month. Not only were we able to act quickly, but the team at Nativo was able to identify ways we could streamline workflows so our teams could work more efficiently.

Problem

a360media owns and operates the leading celebrity and health & fitness media brands in the country. Early in 2021, a360media received a notification that their ad platform would no longer provide features that support their direct ad sales business. a360media had a deadline to find an alternative solution: t-minus 90 days.

a360media sought a replacement solution that would enable their small but mighty operations and sales teams to sell and run direct-sold native and sponsored content campaigns across their site properties at scale.

Losing a critical component of our direct selling platform in such a short time was quite concerning. Identifying an alternative solution and implementing its onboarding and reintegration processes was a daunting task. Fortunately, Nativo was there to support us through this transition.
