Over 80% of TF1’s biggest TV advertisers use its programmatic exchange, boosted by high levels of transparency

TF1 does not see itself as a broadcaster anymore, with Phillipe Boscher, Head of Marketing and Business Development at TF1 Publicité Digital, describing the company as a content marketplace – and one that gives advertisers access to 55 million additional TV screens in the form of smartphones and tablets in France. Over two years ago TF1 created a private programmatic exchange where advertisers can buy all its inventory – including IPTV and ‘digital’, including the biggest shows – and now 83% of its top TV advertisers use the exchange. The broadcaster prides itself on the high levels of transparency its clients get; everyone knows what they are buying and the quality of what they are buying.
