SourceKnowledge Launches Engage, A Performance-Based Programmatic Video Ad Platform To Drive Post-Click Behavior

On Average SourceKnowledge Performance-Based Video Campaigns Using Non-Standard Pre-Roll Improve Engagement by Up to 65%

Montreal, QC – SourceKnowledge, a leading programmatic video platform that measures success based on post-click behavior, announced the launch of Engage, their performance based programmatic ad platform for video. The Engage platform is optimized to drive customer acquisition, conversion and activation by providing marketers with the ability to test and optimize creative in real-time, to evaluate their campaigns’ return on ad spend (ROAS) based upon specific campaign-level goals.

The SourceKnowledge Engage platform empowers marketers with the ability to deliver brand-forward creative that increases conversions and drives first-touch-level awareness. SourceKnowledge Engage programmatically delivers video ads to prospects that are analyzed and ranked based on their likelihood to convert, as well as their total potential lifetime value. Audiences can then be sequentially and thoughtfully re-engaged using banner ad creative that is dynamically delivered to match the video asset, reinforcing conversion behavior and the brand’s overall value proposition. Using non-standard pre-roll the SourceKnowledge Engage platform has seen improved engagement by up to 65% compared to a standard 15 second pre-roll advertisement.

“Video is commonly thought of as a medium for brand-forward content, but it’s also proven to be a prime format for performance-based advertising,” said Patrick Hopf, president and co-founder of SourceKnowledge. “Our new Engage platform enables brand marketers to achieve increased conversion rates and average order values, because they can test their video creative in real-time and enjoy greater control through invest-or-kill metrics.”

Key features include:

  • Real Time Split Testing– Allows marketers to A/B test creative and offers in real time with opportunity to switch out creative.
  • Cross Media Delivery– Attracts audiences with cross-media buys on desktop, mobile and tablet to drive branding and conversion goals.
