A little bit about what we do here at Buymedia……
We believe that no business should be at a disadvantage because they can’t access the right tools or have full visibility of the market in which they operate.
So we’ve used our 30 years of media experience to develop planning, procurement, management and monitoring tools and processes for advertising campaigns in Newspapers, Magazines, Radio, Online and Social. These tools and automated processes have helped our clients increase the return they get on their advertising campaigns by on average 30% and saved staff 24% of their time through automation.
