About Stampen Media

Stampen Media is one of Sweden’s leading media houses known for its regional influence and strong advertiser relationships.

With a legacy in journalism and community engagement, Stampen Media continually seeks ways to strengthen its digital offerings, streamline sales operations, and deliver more value to its advertisers.

The Challenge

Stampen was missing the infrastructure to properly manage and monetize their first-party data. They identified this as a very costly and complex challenge and had seen other media houses build their own tech stack and that most of those projects failed.
 

Key Objectives:

→ Have a reach in the audiences that the sales can feel confident in that what they sell can also be delivered.

Ensure that the quality of the audiences is as high as possible and that it is transparent how the audiences are created, so that the buyers can trust Stampen as a marketing partner. 

To have a complete audience taxonomy that matches their advertisers needs and demand.

→ Drive an increase the overall CPM-levels in all channels; direct, deals, programmatic and network sales.

→ Be independent of 3rd party cookies.

The Solution

One fully connected platform for all first-party online data
 
As a long-term partner Samhub was a natural choice for Stampen as the service is based on the direct needs identified by Stampen and other publishers. As Samhub is built with high integration flexibility in mind, this meant for Stampen that when they update different parts of their tech stack, Samhub will be able to adapt to it. 
 
With a complete data stack that is fully integrated Samhub removes the need for complex integration projects like connecting the CDP to the login, the DMP with the CDP, contextual analysis with the DMP, and so on. This allows Stampen Media to focus on the business they want the data to facilitate.
 
Through Samhub, Stampen now have a platform solution that leverages all their online data into high-value audiences to drive increased CPM-levels and at the same time keep costs under control so that the data becomes a revenue driver and not an infrastructure cost.
