Silverbullet empowers Channel 4 to unlock the full potential of its data-driven future
Entertainment
Overview
Channel 4 were looking to unveil a pioneering collection of data-driven, digital advertising products on All 4, offering their advertisers a unique targeting capability in a post-GDPR, cookieless environment. Enter SilverBullet.
What was the role of digital within the media mix?
Their new Advanced Data Suite consisted of three key products:
-
Brandm4tch (allowing clients to ‘Bring their own data’
-
Approved (offering targeting solutions for advertisers to build pre-existing or bespoke segments)
-
Bespoke (offering the ability to ‘Build their own audience’)
The broadcaster needed an expert data and tech partner to support them throughout their entire data life-cycle and identify the correct technology platforms in order to succeed.
The four key objectives were:
-
Generate new revenue through the use of customer data
-
Design a new adtech ecosystem to execute media buying
-
Create a data-centric culture throughout the business
-
Explore intelligence-driven marketing and activation methods
Silverbullet supported Channel 4 in the analysis and understanding of their data, the implementation and integration of core technology platforms, and the roll out of their Advanced Data Suite offering.
Key statistics
What results did you attain? What was the biggest achievement?

Once the foundation was set, Silverbullet then created a network of data specialist for Channel 3 to help them achieve their Audience Data Suite.

-
83% overall brand uplift using Brandm4tch
-
+180% uplift in monthly orders from Brandm4tch segments of lapsed customers
-
53% net uplift for spontaneous brand awareness for Brandm4tch audiences
