Demandbase supports a variety of ad formats (such as display, native, and video) using different types of creatives that meet a set of specifications suited for the ad format. Depending on the type of creative, there are different routes to submit creatives to your Creative Library for use in advertising campaigns. The process depends on what type of creative that you want to use and whether you rely on an Advertising Campaign Strategist (ACS) to build your campaign.
If you use self-serve Advertising, you can upload many types of creatives for non-personalized ads directly through the Campaign Builder.
Use the following table to determine how to prepare and submit your ad creatives, along with the general time frames for Demandbase to process your submissions. Turnaround time starts from when your Customer Success Manager (CSM) or ACS passes along your creative to the ad production group.
