Industry-specific marketing solutions built by listening to our customers' needs

Industry Solutions - Overview

Industry Solutions are packaged industry specific marketing solutions developed by Big Clic. As a white label agency partner of North America’s leading publishers we are exposed to specific industry marketing objectives and develop solutions that address them.

What is a White Label?

+

White Label is when we work behind the scenes as an extension of a publisher to develop digital marketing solutions they can sell to their clients. The White Label Agency manages the audience development and is responsible for full campaign execution. 

Publishers bolt our white label agency solutions into their media kits and sell our products to their clients.

The 1st party and digitally managed audiences we develop allow their clients to advertise outside the publisher’s Owned & Operated (O&O) media communities. The client can now advertise to the same highly targeted audiences, but on in-demand channels such as programmatic, social media, search, streaming audio and video, digital out of home (DOOH), connected TV (CTV) and Over-the-Top (OTT).

The audience development learnings and industry marketing solutions we develop for our publishers are now being made available directly to clients - saving you money.

If you don’t see an industry that interests you it is likely because we haven’t had a chance to add it - please reach out, we would be happy to review our custom solutions with you.
