Are you tired of declining eCPMs, high or secret commission rates,
irrelevant ads and poor or non-existent relationships with your advertising
networks and advertisers?
ClearBridge is an ad platform that lets you:
- Build and manage your own "ad catalog";
- Automatically sell & receive payment for ads;
- Let advertisers purchase, setup and launch ads without your assistance;
- Communicate directly with advertisers and forge ongoing relationships with them.
ClearBridge is designed for successful websites that want to sell
their ad space directly to advertisers on a one-to-one basis, while retaining
their standard inventory of network ads.
No doubt you have seen websites out there that have one big-brand ad
after another. How do they get these ads? The answer: they have sales teams, and
these sales teams pitch directly to other businesses to secure high-profile
ad campaigns.
ClearBridge attempts to solve the technical issues of such a
process leaving you with the time to deal directly with advertisers, forge
real relationships with them and secure relevant ads of your own.
