DENVER – The premiere digital destination for television enthusiasts, TV Insider.com (TVI) has partnered with programmatic video monetization platform, SpotXchange, to sell ads across its suite of behind-the-scenes and TV companion video content.

“With over 50 DSP integrations, SpotXchange’s marketplace has an incredibly robust pool of buyers”

As the sister site to TV Guide Magazine and under the umbrella of parent company TVGM, LLC, TV Insider has at its disposal six decades of history, and with it access to an unlimited pool of television talent and executives.

TVI’s exclusive content presents the ideal environment for brand advertisers to tap into the premium, hard-to-reach millennial and Gen X audience, TVI’s Vice President of Marketing Alain Begun said. “As we ramp up our video content with partners like Newsy and Whip Clip in addition to our own exclusive behind-the-scenes and on-location videos, we’ll look to the SpotXchange platform to fill our premium pre-roll inventory as a supplement to our direct sales efforts.”

SpotXchange’s modernized ad server is able to house both programmatic and direct sold campaigns in a one-stop solution for publishers, allowing full transparency into yield maximization across deal and inventory types.

The solution was built to support a publisher’s full demand stack from premium direct campaigns to programmatic private marketplace deals, Ben Abbatiello, Senior Director, Business Development, at SpotXchange, said.

“With over 50 DSP integrations, SpotXchange’s marketplace has an incredibly robust pool of buyers,” Abbatiello added. “Our platform offers premium publishers the ability to house all of their programmatic partners in one environment for the quickest response time between buyer and seller.”
