Advertising Process

To help you understand what's involved in running an ad on BusSongs.com, here's a quick summary of the typical ad buying process:

  1. Drop us an email with a RFP (request for proposal) detailing your advertising goals.
  2. We'll then run an inventory forecast to make sure that we'll be able to meet your requirements.
  3. We can then further discuss your goals and negotiate the terms.
  4. An IO (insertion order) will then be generated. This confirms the details of the purchase; including the pricing, goals, and flight dates for each line.
  5. This will be signed and countersigned as a binding contract.
  6. Ads will then be booked into the ad server (we use Google Ad Manager).
  7. The campaign will be delivered, as per the insertion order.
  8. Upon completion, a final report will be produced detailing the performance of the campaign.
  9. You'll be billed for the campaign and a payment is then due within the next 30-days.

To learn more, we highly recommend checking out an online video created by Google which explains the foundations of an online ad campaign (although be aware that it does have a bias towards a publisher audience).
