I am VP -- Corporate Development at FlyCast. Many Web sites are using
FlyCast as a complementary advertising sales channel. We have seen
several patterns emerge. Most of the sites price their FlyCast
advertising at or near rate card, thereby avoiding channel conflicts
while opening up their inventory to a broader array of buyers. In
addition, several sites utilize FlyCast's "Blind Buy", effectively using
FlyCast as a "remnant" channel without jeopardizing their normal rate
card. Because each site controls its own pricing on the network, each
site has the opportunity to determine how it uses FlyCast. As always,
the sites having the greatest success on FlyCast are adept at providing
superior value to advertisers, and at communicating that fact (by using,
among other things, the marketing tools we provide on the media buyer's
desktop).
