DESCRIPTION
Silence Media (UK) Silence is a new advertising network for the entertainment industry. It offers its clients a media-buying model for video banner-advertising called cost-per engagement, which means they only pay when people rollover and expand their ads. Silence works with leading European and American websites. Its clients include major record labels Sony, Universal, and EMI, and leading independent records labels the Beggars Group and PIAS.TRANSCRIPT
Cost per engagement
“Cost per engagement is relevant for music companies because we have
diminishing marketing budgets. If you are advertising a band then it makes sense to only pay to reach their fans.”
