Challenge
Solution
The team at Mediahub was delighted at how straightforward and easy it was to implement Adverity. In just two weeks, they were able to start utilizing the data—an important factor in choosing an automated platform to continue serving large-scale clients, without interruption. Western Union, for example, operated in 90+ countries and had nearly 500 data streams fetching data on a daily basis.
After choosing Adverity, Mediahub used automation to rapidly aggregate and analyze data from advertising platforms such as Google Campaign Manager and Facebook. Once collected, this information funneled into a data warehouse hosted on AWS. After the data was transformed, it was sent to various analytics and data visualization tools used across the agency, such as Power BI.
Impact
With complete automation and having a single source of truth for data, Mediahub now spends 90% less time on data management. They went from three days a week on data processes to just one or two days a month. This allowed the team to dedicate more time to higher-value products and services, solving more meaningful problems for clients, and opening new avenues for profit. Mediahub’s clients also gained access to easy-to-use dashboards, allowing them to view the latest performance updates at any time. These combined efforts strengthened overall relationships with clients.
The group at Mediahub felt the burden of complicated data processes disappear. They no longer felt the mad dash of figuring out when reports would be ready for waiting clients. This decrease in stress improved Mediahub’s employee motivation and retention. The weight had finally lifted—arguably the agency’s biggest win in using Adverity’s platform. Mediahub’s Head of Data and Analytics summed it up perfectly, “The cure for all our data headaches turned out to be Adverity.”
