Chapter 01 · The model

The model, side by side
You care about impact - not impressions.
You want impact for your content. Classic media buying is billed in impressions; whether anyone reads remains open. At MBF Media, only the proven reading session counts, and the performance risk sits with the publisher.
ClassicImpression
The ad is displayed. Nothing more is assured. After the campaign ends, the content fizzles out, and the advertiser carries the risk.
MBF MediaVerified reader
A reader only counts after 30 seconds of reading time or 50 percent scroll depth. If the contractually assured minimum number of readers is not reached, we redeliver at no extra cost.
What this means for agencies
You pass a reliable number on to your client: one briefing, one approval, dashboard reporting, white-label on request. 15 percent agency commission on media services.
What this means for your brand
Your message appears as an editorial trade article where your buyers do their research, with a guaranteed minimum readership and measurable engagement in the reporting.
