Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Media Buying
Answers to common questions about scope, media spend, channels, setup, optimization, reporting and larger campaign requirements.
What is media buying?
Media buying is the process of planning, purchasing, launching and optimizing advertising placements across suitable paid media channels. The work typically connects campaign objectives, audiences, inventory, budget allocation, flighting, tracking and performance review.
What is included in Rudrriv Media Buying?
Depending on the selected scope, the service can include a campaign brief, audience and market review, channel and placement planning, budget allocation, media plan development, campaign setup or trafficking coordination, launch quality checks, pacing, optimization and reporting.
Is advertising spend included in the service fee?
No. The displayed service prices are management fees for the media buying work. Advertising or publisher spend is separate and should be funded directly through the relevant advertising account, platform or approved media arrangement.
Which paid media channels can be included?
The channel mix is selected from the campaign brief and may include paid search, paid social, display or native inventory, online video, programmatic or connected-TV inventory, and direct publisher placements when these are appropriate and available for the agreed scope.
How quickly can a media buying engagement start?
For a standard scope with the required information and access available, the initial media plan and setup are targeted for 5–7 working days. Actual campaign go-live can also depend on creative readiness, account access, platform review and publisher inventory.
How do you decide where to allocate the media budget?
Budget allocation is based on the campaign objective, audience, geography, funnel role, available inventory, creative format, measurement setup and the evidence available from current or previous activity. The allocation can then be adjusted as performance data becomes available.
Can you work in our existing advertising accounts?
Yes, where the agreed scope and access model support it. Existing account history, conversion tracking and prior campaign data can provide useful context for planning and optimization. Access should be granted using the platform’s appropriate user or partner permissions.
Does media buying include ad creative production?
The core Media Buying plans focus on planning, buying, setup, pacing and performance management. Creative adaptation or new creative production can be discussed as a separate or custom scope when the campaign requires it.
What reporting will I receive?
Reporting is tailored to the objective and agreed channel scope. It can cover spend and pacing together with relevant measures such as reach, frequency, impressions, clicks, cost per click, leads or acquisitions, and return on ad spend when dependable conversion or revenue data is available.
Do you guarantee leads, sales or ROAS?
No. Media buying can improve the structure, targeting, pacing and visibility of paid campaigns, but outcomes also depend on the offer, creative, landing experience, market demand, competition, tracking quality, budget and other factors outside the media buying process.
Can you support larger budgets, multiple markets or complex media mixes?
Yes. Multi-market campaigns, larger media budgets, direct publisher negotiations, programmatic or connected-TV requirements, higher reporting frequency and complex governance can be scoped as a custom engagement.
