189. How To Turn Curated Audience Into Insights with GDB11 Nov 202500:24:15

Preview of the Sell-Side Foundations for Traders workshop sponsored by GDB

Sign up to this FREE workshop: https://programmaticdigest14822.ac-page.com/sell-side-workshop 

 
Summary: 
A fast, practical deep dive into how GDB redefined programmatic curation  from their early roots as a DSP to becoming an SSP focused on "Curation as a Service." John Dittar and Felipe share how refining supply paths, removing low-quality inventory, and layering intelligence into deals leads to cleaner, smarter buying. They explain how curation powers stronger brand safety, reduces pre-fraud exposure, and replaces guesswork with predictable, high-performing inventory. This conversation moves beyond CTRs and surface metrics to show how curated deals create meaningful engagement, improved conversions, and simpler workflows for traders.

Here's What You'll Learn

  • Curation as a Service, explained: how GDB cleans, classifies, and enhances every impression in real time.

  • DSP to SSP evolution: why GDB shifted its focus to smarter supply and what that means for buyers.

  • Beyond CTR: how removing low-quality inventory leads to real engagement and conversion gains.

  • Operational simplicity: how curated deals reduce manual work while improving transparency and brand safety.

  • Trader takeaways: how to use curation and clean supply paths to optimize faster, layer insights into DSP workflows, and focus on performance that actually matters.

188. Past the Hype: How to Buy Smarter After TTD's Reseller Update30 Oct 202500:44:41

A fast, practical deep dive into The Trade Desk's move to label all SSPs as "resellers" — what that label actually means, why it has a bad rap, and where it's fair vs. misleading. Gareth breaks down value-add resellers (e.g., unique widgets/placements) vs. pure pass-through reselling, explains OpenPath in plain English, and demystifies the Transaction ID debate: what it is, why TTD wants it, and how it impacts buy-side efficiency and supply transparency.

We wrap with actionable steps for traders — how to pressure-test paths, when to go direct with publishers/PMPs, and how to optimize beyond a basic domain list.

Here's What You'll Learn

  • Reseller ≠ automatically bad: the original IAB intent vs. today's nuanced reality.

  • OpenPath vs. exchanges: what "direct to publisher" actually changes (and what it doesn't).

  • Transaction ID, explained simply: one auction ➝ one ID ➝ fewer dupes and smarter SPO.

  • How to buy smarter right now: talk to publishers, ask for goal-specific PMPs, and evaluate placements/experiences — not just domains.

  • Buyer playbook upgrades: site list ➝ supply-path & placement-level decisions; pair KPI outcomes with quality signals (viewability, density, layout).

179. From Intern to Programmatic Media Director: Navigating Career Growth and Industry Insights with David Wiener03 Jul 202500:33:18

In this episode of the Programmatic Digest, we talk with David Wiener, Director of Programmatic Media at a large agency group. He shares how he got started in programmatic as an intern at a small shop while studying at Hofstra and how he worked his way up through companies like Quotient to his current leadership role.

David talks about how he stayed motivated during career changes and the challenges many face in this industry, like job stress and feeling stuck. We also talk about how to keep growing and knowing when it's time to make a move.

We then break down what makes campaigns work well. We explain why building strong partnerships with platforms like Pubmatic and OpenX matters. We also explain the difference between focusing on performance and focusing on brand goals—and when each one is more important depending on your campaign's goal.

Later, we talk about personal growth and the power of networking. I share how to keep learning at work and how to handle the guilt some feel when changing jobs. We also talk about favorite TV shows like Night Agent and Peaky Blinders. We end by thanking each other and reflecting on the great conversations this podcast brings.

95. How To Hire, Onboard, and Retain Programmatic Talent09 Aug 202200:32:16

Running a programmatic team is anything but automated.
Let's define what programmatic media activation even means. If you know me, you know I am big on words and definitions as we all hear the same thing (sometimes) but comprehend it differently.

According to Oxford languages, Activation is the action or process of making something active or operative.

When we hear programmatic media activation, it is the operation and procedures needed to launch a programmatic media buy, whether a campaign in 1 or several DSPs.

This week's episode of the Programmatic Digest podcast is a lesson on programmatic activation focusing on the People.

The goal of Module 6 is to answer and help explain what fundamentals are needed to activate programmatic media.

We teach the following framework The 3 P's
Focus efficiency in:
The Platform
The Process
The People

The success of the programmatic media department is the people, not just the technology. You need to bridge both with standardized internal processes.

94. The Cookieless Future02 Aug 202200:35:59

Google recently announced, again, that the cookie deprecation will be pushed to the end of 2024. This is probably the 3rd or 4th time they are pushing the deadline.


I have predicted this in previous episodes and will say this again; I do not think they will deprecate cookies any time soon (or at all).

In this episode of the programmatic digest, I unpack what we call Cookieless Future and take you back to the source.


Why is this even happening?


Where did it all start (or rather, who started this)?

It is a lesson pulled from the Reach and Frequency™ course from module 5, where we cover targeting mix. Make sure to catch the visual of this on YouTube.

We ended the conversation by discussing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Sonja specifically shared how she went about diversifying her team and how much of a positive impact it has had on TripleLift.

178. Audience First, Attribution Always: A Practical Workshop for Traders27 Jun 202500:37:15

This is the third episode in a special 3-part series sponsored by Drako!

Check out the YouTube Interview here:  https://youtube.com/live/fd_t1dFcxZM

In this episode, we sit down with Giorgia Howell, Head of Managed Services at Drako, to break down the art and science of smart programmatic advertising. Whether you're a newbie trader or learning how to manage client expectations better, this one's packed with gold.

Key Takeaways:
  • Custom targeting is a game changer
    Use geo-targeting, competitive conquesting, and location data to find the right users in the right places.

  • Don't skip pre-campaign planning
    Understand your audience before hitting "go." Market research, demographic insights, and clear campaign goals will make your optimizations easier.

  • Campaigns need love at every stage
    Georgia walks us through before, during, and after campaign strategies using a real-world example: a nationwide Canadian campaign.

  • Automation is your friend
    Move beyond manual work—Draco's tools help simplify complex decisions.

  • Talk to your clients!
    Clear communication and alignment on KPIs = smoother campaign execution and better results.


Custom targeting and solid communication aren't just "nice-to-haves"—they're the backbone of high-performing campaigns. Take the time to plan, optimize, and talk it out, and you'll see real results.

176. Choosing The Right Data Partner In The Crowded Programmatic Market29 May 202500:43:25

This is the first episode in a special 3-part series sponsored by Drako!

In this episode, I talk with Stewart Sullivan, CEO of Drako, about his journey from being a marketing student at Concordia University to leading a fast-growing programmatic data company.

Stewart shares what it's like to work in ad tech as a former trader and why it's so important for media buyers and data partners to work closely together. You'll learn how Drako grew from just reselling a DSP to building their own powerful location data tools that help solve real problems for advertisers.

We talk about:

  • How to choose the right data partner (and why it's often confusing)

  • The biggest myths about using custom data in campaigns

  • Why location data is key for reaching the right audience and beating competitors
    How to use geo-targeting and data signals to improve campaign performance

Stewart also gives great advice for marketers: Ask questions, dig into your data, and don't just stick with what's familiar.

This episode is packed with tips for making smarter programmatic decisions — and it's just the beginning. Stay tuned for parts 2 on Media Planning with a Data-First Mindset  and 3 on Data Measurement and Attribution of this special series with Drako.

175. Reaching Hispanic Audiences with Premium Video + Programmatic Power14 May 202500:38:36

In this episode, we're joined by Augusto Romano, co-founder of Digo, and Anthony Gonzalez from JWP Connatix, to break down how smart video strategies and real partnerships are helping brands connect with the growing U.S. and Hispanic audience.

Augusto shares how Digo was built to serve vibrant communities such as  Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Salvadorans, and more through premium video content. Meanwhile, Anthony shows us how JWP Connatix powers this mission with advanced tech to deliver and monetize video content effectively.

Together, they explain how viewer habits are shifting; everyone's watching more video and why publishers and advertisers need to keep up. The solution? Using tools like Private Marketplaces (PMPs) and Demand-Side Platforms (DSPs) to reach Hispanic audiences in brand-safe, culturally relevant ways.

But the real secret sauce? Authenticity. Augusto and Anthony talk about why brands need to understand cultural nuances, not just demographics, to truly connect. By building long-term, genuine partnerships and embracing digital transformation, especially among Latin American and Spanish-language media, brands can unlock the full power of the Hispanic market.

Tune in for an insider's look at what it takes to create meaningful connections and successful campaigns in today's video-first world.
