Soon, advertisers will be able to more easily leverage Reddit communities and The Home Depot's first-party data thanks to an industry-first self-service integration that allows advertisers to launch Reddit campaigns directly within Orange Access, Orange Apron Media Network's self-service platform.By streamlining workflows inside the platform, brands will be able turn up where high-intent home improvement discussions are already occurring. This pairing of Reddit and The Home Depot's data lets brands engage customers earlier in the journey as they measure impact across online channels.Expanded Pinterest PartnershipOrange Apron Media has a beta integration with Pinterest Media Network Connect. The expanded partnership lets Orange Apron Media build on how non-endemic advertisers reach inspiration-led home improvement audiences. The Home Depot is the first home improvement retailer to take part in this expanded capability. It also positions Pinterest as the first social platform where brands can activate while using the retailer's first-party shopper data.Through this collaboration, brands not sold at The Home Depot can run Pinterest campaigns powered by data on more than 20 first-party audiences comprised of insights from more than 1 billion transactions as well as billions of annual store and website visits. These insights help advertisers more keenly understand how customers plan, research and act on home improvement needs, allowing brands to engage audiences in the early inspiration and planning stages.Pinterest Media Network Connect is the third environment where non-endemic bands can activate the retailer's audiences, following integrations with The Trade Desk and Yahoo. These integrations strengthen Orange Apron Media's focus on extending first-party data into platforms customers naturally use as they plan projects.
