Digital media professionals are becoming more efficient and increasing capacity through new functionalities within Basis:

• Ad serving workflow – alleviates management of multiple ad tags by consolidating all necessary ad serving information into one dashboard, with user ability to manage ad tags for a Plan, Channel, Vendor, Property and/or Line Item in as little as one click. The dashboard also provides in-line editing functionality for Ad Tag Names and Types.
• Analytics review – enables easy evaluation and summarization of campaign data by pulling metrics into one view. Users customize the presentation of the content and arrange how data is displayed based on personal preference to increase the speed of their workflow. Users are also able to scan information rapidly to identify performance indicators and potential issues, with options to expand or filter views for deep dives into the data from different tactics being used on campaigns.
• Geotargeting – gives advertisers more granularity in targeting and reporting for U.S. Congressional Districts. It also adds granularity in European location targeting.
• Related audiences – provides recommendations of third-party audience segments to use from data providers. Basis’ proprietary modeling technology identifies and scores the segments most closely resembling first-party audiences the advertiser is targeting.
• Fast campaign creation – allows agile creation of omnichannel, multi-tactic campaigns using data from past or existing campaigns. Media teams using combinations of programmatic, direct-buying, advanced TV, search and social save time—line items, groups and tactics are copied, with users choosing elements from previous campaigns to use in the new campaigns.
