RipeDaily Media, First Ad Network to Focus on Socially Conscious Millennials
One Green Planet, Grist, Triple Pundit, Global Animal, Earth911 and Mongabay come together as part of the RipeDaily ad network
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cause-marketing is not new. In fact, in 1983 American Express coined the term Cause-Related Marketing when it was running a campaign to restore the Statue of Liberty. Although not new, cause-marketing has now moved to the forefront with 97% of marketing executives believing that it is an essential business strategy*. Millennials are really driving this as 89% decide what to buy and where to shop based on a brand's social responsibility*. However, since many Millennials don't trust traditional advertising, the missing link was an authentic environment in which to showcase these socially responsible campaigns.
RipeDaily Media has solved this problem by creating the first cause-related ad network to focus on socially conscious Millennials. Partnering with a curated group of premium publishers, the network reaches an engaged and passionate audience:
- 11.2+ million monthly visitors
- 52% are 18-35, the largest group driving socially conscious commerce
- 67% are college educated
- Active social media followings on Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin that are receptive to cause-related marketing
- High-quality and trusted content delivered via website, mobile web, apps and social media
Formed by a veteran ad sales and marketing team with a wide range of experience working with Fortune 500 companies, RipeDaily aims to unite cause-related sites in order to raise social consciousness about the issues that matter. RipeDaily has joined sites that center around topics like climate change, animal welfare, the intersection between business and the environment, and living and eating sustainably. Each site in RipeDaily's network delivers the information in a unique way, but the common denominator is the passion and the activism of the audience.
In order to ensure that the marketer's message fits authentically within the content of the sites, RipeDaily works with both the clients and the publishers to develop campaigns that engage the audience with a focus on native advertising and sponsored content.
