Microsoft Inks Ad Partnership with Quattro Wireless


Quattro's mobile ad network to collaborate with Microsoft Advertising to promote integrated and simplified mobile advertising planning

Waltham, MA - January 12, 2009 - Mobile advertising network Quattro Wireless announced a strategic partnership with Microsoft Advertising, promising advertisers and agencies the tools to more effectively plan, purchase and execute mobile ad campaigns. Per terms of the agreement, Quattro's ad targeting platform and publisher inventory will accept traffic from Microsoft Advertising's Atlas Media Console buy-side ad serving technology, offering advertisers and agencies an efficient option for setting up, tracking, billing and measuring an integrated mobile campaign--once a campaign is set up via Atlas Media Console, it can be seamlessly served across any publisher within the Quattro Ad Network, with Quattro partner integration tools simplifying mobile media planning and buying chores by refining the targeting method and dynamically serving ads based on the subscriber's mobile device and screen size. In addition, media planners and buyers may work directly with Quattro to further extend their reach and placement alternatives.

 

"We view our relationship with Microsoft as a watershed moment for the mobile advertising industry," said Steven Rosenblatt, Vice President of Advertising Sales for Quattro Wireless. "We are seeing unprecedented demand for buying mobile advertising inventory and this critical solution will simplify the process for the advertisers and agencies and revolutionize how they buy, manage and measure their media campaigns."

"Advertisers are eager to track and measure their digital advertising campaigns holistically, across the PC, mobile devices and other emerging technologies," said Ryan Mackle, director of Display Sales Product Management for Microsoft Advertising. "We are excited to enable our customers with the tools and services they need to measure media across the digital channels."

The relationship illustrates Quattro's leadership in media buying and planning solutions and their vision for advancing mobile as a key marketing platform.
