What this means
What to do with it.
Media shops in the United Kingdom are a mid-sized pool. Publishers selling direct and resellers sit together here, so split them before outreach; shops without a company match still have site contacts.
Target the United Kingdom media shops that advertise now, then add the company-matched ones to reach publishers and resellers by name.
Deliver a media retailer list for the United Kingdom with company match and advertising status, so a client can segment without a second tool.
Start with the media shops advertising now; they are the ones investing in growth and the first to add tools.
