YieldexDirect, which provides forecasting and analytics for buying and selling premium ad inventory, has signed 20 major publishers in its first nine months of operation, announced Andy Nibley, CEO of Yieldex. The publishers include Hearst Newspapers and PGA TOUR Digital, with PGA TOUR Digital agreeing to use YieldexDirect exclusively for managing their direct, automated guaranteed deals.
“We chose YieldexDirect as a platform to look to automate some of our guaranteed buys due to the unparalleled forecasting offered by its integration with Yieldex Analytics, which we already use as our inventory management system” said Raef Godwin, Sr. Director, Revenue Operations, PGA TOUR Digital.
