OLO|Mix is dedicated to helping its clients create, track and optimize revenues, investments, costs, exposures, profits and value. Companies need to go beyond highlight, summary level reporting and get a detailed understanding of what they have purchased and value their time, attention, energy, staffing and media investment is generating. Why? Because the data is readily available with affordable plans and services popping up daily.
When it comes to media: advertising, promotion and marketing or PR agency contracts, rates and incentive structures (or not) many companies have chosen OLO|Mix to “follow the money,” including social, electronic and traditional media purchases.
It’s also important to know how intermediaries (including functional intermediaries such as in-house marketing, advertising and or promotional staff and other advisers) are being used—and at what cost—so that the maximum amount of spend goes toward effective media, in other words, stuff that works. And if you feel you’re not getting the transparency and cooperation you need, OLO|Mix makes sure you’ve got best in class contract audit and content rights. In the exceptional case, running the program directly in-house may improve speed, quality, and overall performance if one has the capabilities required to do so, not impossible but rare nonetheless.
“You don’t know what you don’t know” using a team working-together approach tends to bring out the best ideas and solutions for you.

Lessons learned like never before:
When it comes to finding out all-in costs in time, money and delays causing lost-once-in-a-feed-opportunities to slip away many companies discover they forgot to keep up with the most basic internet age rule; technology, social media and SaaS (cloud services) in particular do not sleep, they are changing in real-time and if left unattended even for a month can and do change drastically. Savvy competitors can spot this in real-time, like never before. Fortunes, brands, and careers will be made and lost because of this transparency.
When SMB’s maintain disciplined watch over spends they improve their information set and get better metrics. An independent boutique agency such as OLO|Mix monitors critical revenue, cost, investment, exposure, risk and value factors and enables companies to ask better questions about position and spend leading to greater safety, security and value.
