Coasting into Q4

September 18, 2020

All eyes are on Q4 and recouping revenue lost due to COVID-19.  Adapex is seeing an uptick in our verticals, though it still varies from week to week.  But we working with all of our publisher partners to optimize their monetization efforts to accelerate revenue in the coming months.

Digital Ad Spend Holds

Magna reports that digital ad spend has proved to be resilient amidst the turmoil of 2020.  And while growth wasn’t as high as originally forecast,  a +5.7% growth in digital ad sales is still expected.   Overall ad spend in all mediums will be buoyed by the presidential election in the US, but digital’s resilience is due to four factors:

  • Huge rise in consumption
  • Acceleration of e-commerce
  • Marketers choosing lower-funnel tactics (direct response)
  • Uptick in Small Business spending
