Here is our practical guide to deal management. Ensure that this major deal, which starts tomorrow, is a success.
In early 2021, the average Publisher makes more than 25% of its revenue on programmatic direct, has hundreds of deals spread across half a dozen SSPs (as buyers tend to have various SSP preferences), and plays across multiple deal types: Programmatic Guaranteed, Preferred Deals, Private Auctions, etc
Our practical guide will help you identify what can go wrong with a deal, since most would think Programmatic sounds like it is all automated, which means everything will go well, right ? well the truth is, there are multiple reasons why a deal can go wrong, “Adomik has confirmed that up to 35% of deals can run into a delivery issue in a single month.“

To identify the Deal issues and understand them for troubleshooting purposes, we believe that every Publisher willing to build a strong business should work on the 3 following points:
- Have a strong team of “Programmatic Experts” : Usually deal issues come from human mistakes or are buried in technical / yield settings that are difficult to appreciate
- Leverage all the data that matters : The primary goal is to look at the data on a regular basis based on averages for the last few days. It can also prove useful to look at trends to identify declines that do not appear clearly through aggregated “average” analyses
- Speed matters – Be Fast : Increasing your speed could occur with an increase in the size of your team, but that would negatively impact your ROI, due to higher HR costs. It is a better idea to improve your velocity, which keeps costs under control. We believe that the best way to do so is instating a solution that has “Speed” as a core principle of its design, and using a proper method/routine on top of the tool. Reading our guide will proved you with 3 pieces of advice on how to do so.
