Laughlin Constable launches ad agency trading desk

Milwaukee-based Laughlin Constable announced it has established an internal trading desk to buy online advertising space directly from ad exchanges, allowing the agency hands-on access to manage client campaigns for a stronger, more cost-effective impact on target audiences.

It’s a more exact and customized process than ever before, and it really puts our experts in control to manage campaigns with our clients’ best interests top of mind.”

Laughlin Constable president Mat Lignel said that in addition to more sharply focused audience targeting based on in-depth client knowledge, LC’s internal trading desk offers other benefits for companies, including cost-effectiveness, deeper insights and better service.

“Establishing the agency trading desk is an important move for LC – it’s part of our mission as a next-decade agency to continuously combine innovation and fresh insights with technical skills that enhance our clients’ business,” Lignel said. “As digital advertising continues to undergo explosive growth, our goal is to help our clients get more value from their online efforts with the expertise and commitment they’ve come to expect from Laughlin Constable.”
