The "Creator" Data Noise

Why firmographic filters fail for broadcast sales.

A "Media Company" could be Disney or a teenager with a TikTok account. If you sell transmitter hardware, ad servers, or premium stock footage, you need the infrastructure.

You need to filter out the influencers and find the Broadcast Groups and Enterprise Publishers.

Anatomy of a High-Value Media Lead

In Media, the "Monetization Stack" defines the business. A publisher using Piano for subscriptions and Prebid.js for ads is a sophisticated enterprise.

We extract these "Revenue Signals" to help you find the companies moving the needle.

Tech Fingerprints

  • Ad Server: Detection of Google Ad Manager (GAM), Xandr, or Magnite.
  • CMS: Usage of Arc XP, WordPress VIP, or Chorus.
  • Tracking: Comscore, Nielsen, or Quantcast tag detection.

Operational Signals

  • FCC IDs: Active broadcast licenses for TV and Radio stations.
  • Ads.txt: Analysis of authorized sellers to determine direct vs reseller status.
  • Traffic: Volume estimates (>1M monthly visits) to tier accounts.

Outreach Strategy: The "Yield" Play

If you sell ad yield management, filter for publishers with high traffic using GAM but missing Header Bidding wrappers.
Pitch: "Increase your programmatic yield by 20% by implementing our server-side header bidding wrapper..."

Verification: The "Masthead" Check

We validate media companies by their editorial footprint.

  • Editorial Staff: Does the site list a "Masthead" with real humans?
  • Frequency: Are they publishing new stories every hour?
  • Distribution: Are they carried on major platforms (Apple News, Flipboard)?

This ensures you pitch to media houses, not auto-generated spam sites.
