What challenge did the auto manufacturer face with its EV campaign?
The auto manufacturer faced two challenges in its EV campaign: reaching eco-friendly auto shoppers and EV enthusiasts at scale across display, video and CTV, and proving how its media partner performed against every other partner. This automotive advertising campaign ran through a large holding company agency and required a partner that could combine premium audience data with premium inventory across all three channels.
Just as important, the manufacturer wanted clear, comparable proof of performance: a view of how this partner’s results compared with every other partner in the campaign.
What are Experian Curated Deals?
Experian Curated Deals builds private marketplaces (PMPs) that combine premium publisher inventory, privacy-safe audience data, and dynamic pricing into a single, ready-to-activate deal ID. Instead of buying audience data and inventory separately and hoping they line up, a media buyer activates one packaged deal that already combines both.
For a marketer, that means:
