In today’s episode of The Digible Dudes podcast, we chat with Greta Wolking; Senior Paid Media Strategist, and Erica Hanger; Senior Content Strategist at Digible about native advertising for multifamily. Native Advertising is where branded content fits seamlessly and – you guessed it – natively into a publisher’s webpage. Throughout the conversation, we dive into what is native advertising, when to use native advertising in your media mix, measuring success, the process of native advertising, campaigns, past, present, and future of native advertising, personalization, generational differences, and more.
Native advertising refers to the use of paid advertisements, such as display adverts, that match the look of an already-existing website, social media platform, or search engine. Starting the conversation, Greta defines what is native advertising, what different ways it can formulate, and how it operates.
Past, Present, & Future of Native Ads
Presenting the ideas about the past, present, and future of native advertising, Greta dives into the past when they ran a different kind of category within multifamily ad campaigns, TiVo and retargeting, and OS widget integration as future possibilities. When it comes to digital privacy, there are generational differences. While one generation is quite positive about targeted ads, another generation may bear a negative attitude towards them.
