Sydney, Australia – Advertising technology company Amobee and social marketing agency iD Social have partnered to offer market social strategies in Australia. This allows advertisers new opportunities to add new audience targeting insights and ad efficiencies within paid social campaigns. 

Amobee’s partnership with iD Social will also allow advertisers to build and activate unified audience pools from second-party and third-party data sources, as well as to measure and optimise campaigns across all advertising channels. 

Adam Hunt, senior director at business development and partnerships at Amobee, said, “As Amobee continues to focus on total TV, we’re also mindful of strengthening our capabilities across programmatic and the wider advertising ecosystem, including social. Social media plays a critical role in most brands’ advertising strategies today and iD Social’s core expertise will allow us to extend our social offering and provide clients with true cross-platform buying and measurement capabilities.”

Meanwhile, Ian Laurie, managing director at iD Social, commented, “iD Social’s rule of thumb is to set up the algorithm to find the right people for advertisers, and that is still the case. However, we love testing to find efficiencies and the more things we have to test with, the better.”

He added, “Amobee’s scalable audience extension and exclusion capabilities made them a natural partner for iD Social. A unified audience that helps optimise advertising results within social, is more important now than it has ever been.”

Amobee provides clients with solutions that drive results in any format, across any screen, to optimise reach across desired audiences and deliver desired business outcomes that are focused on the customer experience. Amobee unifies TV and digital to provide advertisers with advanced data management and media planning capabilities as well as actionable, real-time market research and proprietary audience data.
