Meredith Corporation was a pioneer in offering print advertising sales guarantees<\/a>, something it subsequently extended to digital and cross-platform media. Now it\u2019s set to offer guarantees on video advertising ROI.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust like we\u2019ve done in print and just like we\u2019ve done in digital, one of the things that we\u2019ll be talking about with brands this year at the NewFronts is our new ability to guarantee positive ROI against video ad campaigns,\u201d says Andrew Snyder, Meredith\u2019s new SVP, Head of Video.<\/p>\n

Advertisers have always been focused on increasing their understanding of the true performance of their video advertising, Snyder<\/a>, who most recently was SVP of Sales at Meredith, says in this interview with Beet.TV.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd as marketers have become much more adept at measuring the impact of digital video, of course they\u2019re more attentive than ever to the performance of their video ad campaigns.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to its massive scale following the company\u2019s acquisition of Time Inc.\u2019s publishing holdings, Synder says a main point of differentiation is \u201cour willingness to actually guarantee positive ROI performance.\u201d<\/p>\n

He talks about the magnitude of change following the Time Inc. deal and the ongoing integration of \u201ctwo amazing, iconic portfolios of powerful media brands.\u201d Across the combined portfolio, \u201cour focus is programming video content for each of those brands, not unlike how you might program a cable network.\u201d<\/p>\n

The company now generates 275 original series.<\/p>\n

Snyder says Meredith is the dominant player in categories like food, where it has the \u201cnumber one reach among all digital media companies, more video viewers than even the Food Network in Meredith\u2019s food category.\u201d<\/p>\n

Its other strengths lie in such areas as parenting and homes, celebrities and entertainment.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo matter the topic, no matter the vertical category, we likely have a solution for you in our portfolio.\u201d<\/p>\n
