FAQ

Straight answers to common questions

What is media buying, and why does it matter who handles it?

Media buying is planning and purchasing ad placements across radio, TV, streaming, outdoor, and digital. Who buys matters because vendor relationships drive the rates, inventory, and added value you get. Ours are built over 30+ years.

How do you decide which channels are right for my campaign?

We start with your audience, market, and goals, then build a mix that reaches them efficiently. Once campaigns are live, we adjust the mix based on performance.

What is the difference between traditional and programmatic buying?

Traditional buys are negotiated directly with stations and media owners. Programmatic buys are automated and data-targeted across digital and streaming inventory. We handle both and plan them together.

How do your Northeast Ohio vendor relationships benefit my buy?

Long-standing local relationships help us secure preferred rates and bonus inventory, so your budget goes further.

How do you measure and report performance?

You get weekly reports tied to your goals, scheduled check-ins, and ongoing optimization. You will always know what your media is doing.
