Publisher representation: your inventory, taken to market
Representation gives a publisher a commercial presence in markets where it has an audience but no sales team. Vertoz acts on your behalf with advertisers, agencies and programmatic buyers.
The market in India
For Indian publishers, representation opens access to advertiser demand in other markets, alongside domestic agencies and brands, without building a sales team abroad.
What Vertoz does as your representative
Takes inventory to buyers
We present your properties, audiences and formats to demand partners and buying teams.
Structures deals
Direct, private marketplace and programmatic guaranteed deals are set up and managed for you.
Manages delivery
Trafficking, pacing and troubleshooting are handled so campaigns deliver as sold.
Protects quality
Advertiser categories and creative standards are applied according to your policies.
Optimizes yield
Demand sources and floor prices are reviewed against performance.
Reports transparently
You see revenue by source, deal and placement.
Who it is for
Representation suits publishers expanding into new markets, international publishers with audiences abroad, and media owners who would rather invest in content and product than in an in-market sales operation.
It works alongside your existing direct sales and programmatic set-up. Scope is agreed during onboarding.
