Pixability v4 Just Changed the Video Advertising Business and Why Walled Gardens Matter
December 7, 2023I’m not sure whether I love or hate the term “walled garden,” but I guess it fits the bill when the market is trying to bucketize YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter into something different from open web and television. What I do love, though, is what one finds in walled gardens: audiences. Dear brand champion, allow me to be more specific: your customers — past, present, and future — are hanging out there.
So if walled gardens are the future, then why are they so hard for brand marketers to use? Well, if I’m unabashedly stretching this metaphor, then I’ll say that the walls are too tall. The future of media is growing in the walled gardens, but their true power is when you mix what’s growing. Specifically, merely combining YouTube and Facebook advertising, yields extraordinary results.
Unfortunately, the platform players aren’t going going to fix that; it’s not in their best interest and that’s perfectly fine with us. Now you understand why we lowered the walls and created the world’s most powerful video advertising solution to date. And the implications are profound:
- Overcoming all the fraud risks and reporting limitations of the open web
- Providing a true path for brand advertisers who want to shift budgets to online video without giving up reach and measurement
It’s time, so today we’re excited to announce Pixability v4, the industry’s most advanced solution for video advertising on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Building on our five years of proven YouTube campaign expertise, Pixability v4 offers a revolutionary approach to campaign management across premium video platforms.
Consumers are overwhelming turning to these walled gardens to watch video — at the expense of television.
