How are the relationships with the agencies in this project? The agencies will see you as a competitor, do not they approach the process negatively?
On the contrary, IDE Financial Solutions uses the resources created by increasing the productivity and profitability of the companies to grow their advertising pie. Agencies collect 80% of the commission they receive in the normal usages from the additional media usage budget used by advertisers from the IFS company. The agencies regard IFC as a solution partner, not as a competitor. They introduce IFS to their companies to get solutions for the media budgets that are cut off due to reduced sales, and they make joint effort to create a new value-added advertising budget created from stocks or new sales.
How do you determine the media prices?
The prices are not different from normal cash purchases. The prices are mutually determined by the media and IFS advertisers, and they are checked by the media purchasing agencies of the advertisers.
What should the media do to use the system?
Media companies are not able to accept low-budget advertisers in order to keep their pricing policies down while the occupancy rates are declining from the slowdown of the economy. Thanks to IFS, the media is able to work with these customers because IFS re-raises the companies’ reduced budgets with the added value provided by their services. When new client requests are sent from the media through IFS solutions web site, it confirms whether the system wants to work in the frame based on the availability of the ad space. The advertiser will announce its own campaign for the additional media package, which consists of the media approved by the system.
What should IDE advertisers do to use the system?
After the total media usage right gained by the company from the areas stated in the first question is approved by IFS, the company fills in the forms on the website on their media usage preferences, and then these forms are automatically shard with the media. According to positive returns from the media, we organize a direct negotiation of price and details with the customer and the media. According to the answers based on the suitability of the period and the result of the joint meetings held with the media, alternative media usage packages are presented for the use of the customer in the advertising campaign.
What happens if the IFS advertiser is a current customer of the media?
IFS does not interfere with the annual cash usage between the advertiser and the media. IFS makes the agreement as a budget additional to the annual cash usage. In some cases, the customer may cut from the other media and raises the amount spent for the media they work with. Generally, IFS either brings a new brand to the media or accepts the existing company providing that there is an additional budget.
How is the billing done?
IFS is directly billed by the media. The agreements made and the prices are kept confidential between IFS and the media due to the non-disclosure agreements signed. IFS bills its own customer according to the price agreed between the IFS advertiser and the media. When IFS invoices its customer for media, the customer invoices IFS for stock goods.
