"Illumin Account Managers Take The Product From Good To Great"

4.5/5

What do you like best about illumin?

The integration feature for meta where we can push RT audiences directly into platform is something we can only do with Illumin today. They also have dedicated account managers and sales teams that support campaign ideation, set up and delivery as if they were always a part of your team to begin with. Honestly the best part of working with Illumin has been the team of Chris Carmody & Stefen Shields. I worked with them on a different campaign with a different agency and when I got the opportunity to launch something new with Illumin and Digital Ignite they immediately reached out, reconnected and supported me in the same way I had come to expect and value from my previous experience. Regardless of features or performance I'll always give those two a chance to win our business because of the level of support they provide throughout planning and execution of campaigns as well as the ongoing optimizations, customizations and extra value they provide.

What do you dislike about illumin?

The audiences & performance in general for ROAS/Revenue based campaigns is behind other programmatic channels at times. Great results from cross-channel activities for CPM control and volume of impressions, but the optimization toward a tangible business outcome like a purchase doesn't convert as well as other tactics.

What problems is illumin solving and how is that benefiting you?

Give us access to scalable audiences across the open-web with the ability to import first-party data, RT, etc. that you'd expect from any DSP you're using. Beyond those basic features that should be standard or you should find a partner like Illumin to use instead, I love their integration with Meta. Being able to build a funnel from a programmatic ad to a specific meta ad that only goes to that already primed audience helps us manage budget flows and campaign efficiency in better ways than we can with other DSPs when we're running both programmatic and meta.

Thanks so much for sharing this! We’re glad the Meta integration is making a difference and love hearing how Chris and Stefen feel like part of your team as that’s exactly what we aim for. Appreciate your feedback on ROAS too, it helps us keep getting better. Excited to keep building together!
