Display & Video 360 is one of the most popular marketing platforms in India. With investments in audio ads by marketers on the rise, and the current association with Google, the audio space will see a boom in the months to come; from increased product exposure as well as better economics of ad production and diffusion.
Although still nascent, the audio advertising space is fast growing with a number of early adopters tasting success from the move. “Digital audio inventory is on a steep rise and major ad tech companies are enhancing their platforms with digital audio solutions, allowing marketers to diversify their audience reach. More recently, Google also took an interest in audio, allowing marketers to purchase audio inventory directly through Display & Video 360. Programmatic, in general, allows marketers to efficiently test, assess and maximize new capabilities and JioSaavn is at the forefront of efforts to educate, demonstrate and supply the benefits of programmatic audio advertising in India,” said Gaurav Kaushik - Global Vice President, Advertising Platform, JioSaavn.

Marketers now running campaigns through Google DV360 will have the additional advantage of adding audio advertising to the traditional mix of display and video formats, simplifying inventory tracking and measuring success for all programmatic buys in one place. What’s more, because Display & Video 360 uses IAB’s VAST standard of delivery, it provides insights for audio ads that are similar to video formats, like telling you when a listener hits a certain point in the audio ad or presses mute.”
