We Do NOT

✅ Purchase inventory in real time

❌ Purchase inventory in advance

✅ Purchase inventory in the private marketplace via our dedicated inventory management team

❌ Buy or participate in upfronts

Controlling Living Room Quality™ Inventory

MNTN is constantly optimizing inventory against your campaign's audience to drive the most performance for your campaign.

For this reason, we recommend not applying any network blocks unless the content on that network does not align with your brand. If you decide to block networks, we recommend placing no more than 2-3 network blocks at a time.

Otherwise, we recommend not controlling the Living Room Quality™ Inventory your ads are serving on, as our product automatically optimizes via our audience-first approach, reaching users within your audience where they consume their content.

Keep in mind that you can always refer to the TV Network Report within your Reporting Tab to find exactly where your TV commercials have aired.
