    138. Multicultural Targeting in Programmatic Media with Iesha White

    Iesha White is a programmatic media expert with over 10 years experience working for companies like Tinuiti, Sony Pictures, Xaxis, PureCars, etc. She walks us through the importance of multicultural targeting in programmatic advertising and how to implement accordingly. We cover some essential discussion points including why a person’s identity isn’t brand unsafe!!!!!!! (yes, we had to explain why excluding keywords such as “black” or “asian” or “queer” is unacceptable and simply wrong!!!). Another important focus was why consider adding multicultural media and how it can affect the bottom line for brands.

    The Programmatic Digest

    135. Understanding Programmatic Sustainability with Brian O'Kelley at Scope3

    135. Understanding Programmatic Sustainability with Brian O'Kelley at Scope3

    💡 This episode is sponsored by Jobsinadtech.com 🌟 

    Let’s first highlight some “not so fun facts” about the topic covered in this episode, according to Anne Coghlan, COO of Scope3 in Digiday

    1. Programmatic advertising creates 100,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide every month in the United States, which is equivalent to burning about 11.2 million gallons of gas. 

    2. Serving 1,000 digital ad impressions uses the same amount of energy as doing a load of laundry in a washing machine — excluding the dryer — which produces a global average of 514.8 grams of CO2.

    Brian O’Kelley co-founder and CEO joins the programmatic meetup, a weekly community call to discuss the importance of sustainability and how to take actions from negotiating supply partnership down to optimizing site lists in your programmatic ad campaigns.

    Our favorite quote in this interview can be summarized down to “ Don’t buy crap!”  

    Take a listen to this hour long interview where the community got to hear first hand what sustainability is and how to take action; asking questions to Brian under the outstanding leadership of our co-hosts Manuela Cortes and Carlos Villanueva.
