“There is no scale in multicultural media.” Lashawnda Goffin, CEO of Colossus SSP, has heard that statement many times – and it simply isn’t true. Yet the misperception persists, in part because of problematic programmatic practices.
In addition to establishing another pipe for programmatic demand, Colossus SSP will add SHE Media’s network of minority- and woman-owned publishing brands to its own minority-focused PMPs.
Hardly a week goes by without a marketer or an investor declaring their interest in committing more support to minority-owned media. But the timing is unfortunate, writes Lashawnda Goffin, CEO of Colossus SSP. Just as brands are ready to shift more dollars toward minority audiences and publications, the death of third-party cookies is making those audiences harder to zero-in on.
