BULLDOG DM AND AMPLIVE PARTNER TO AMPLIFY VIEWERSHIP OF LIVE STREAMED EVENTS AND EXPERIENCES

(New York, NY – September 26, 2017) - Bulldog DM and AmpLive have announced a unique partnership that will allow content owners, brands, agencies and live event producers to amplify their live events and reach extended audiences and viewers.  The partnership will leverage Bulldog DM’s best practice live stream agency approach and layer the AmpLive solution into the Bulldog DM offering allowing stakeholders to reach larger and more targeted live stream viewers.

Bulldog DM works with the world’s top experiences and music festivals to guide their live streaming strategies with brands, marketers, agencies and distribution platforms.  Brands are encountering challenges in traditional advertising arising from cord cutting, rampant adoption of ad blockers and brand safety.  Live streaming is rapidly becoming a key engagement tool for the advertising community and this partnership creates greater incentive for brands to embrace live streaming.  AmpLive and Bulldog DM will be able to deliver live streams to not only larger but more targeted viewers.

Bulldog was recently featured in Forbes “Streaming Takes Over at Festivals” story: https://www.forbes.com/sites/rebeccalerner/2017/09/23/streaming-takes-over-at-festivals-like-global-citizen-panorama/#6372575d28ea

AmpLive targets live viewers based on demographics, geography and interest categories such as music, entertainment, sports, and news. Once a target audience is defined, AmpLive determines which partner publishers are most relevant to host the content. Livestreams are then distributed through premium content formats across an audience network of over 150 million qualified viewer profiles and 3000 premium publishers, such as the New York Times, and Rolling Stone and TechCrunch. Views are guaranteed, and audience data is reported in real-time. After the event, AmpLive’s proprietary technology retargets the viewer as soon as they disengage from the stream to drive them further toward conversion.

“What you have here is two companies coming together to provide the livestreaming industry better insight into live audiences. Bulldog DM works with the best live experiences and music festivals and AmpLive delivers the best audiences. Together this is a big win for fans wanting more live content and sponsors wanting to reaching these audiences,” said Eddie Vaca, founder and CEO of AmpLive.

Bulldog DM and AmpLive are coming together to drive massive audiences to these events. Now available within Bulldog DM's suite of services, content creators can now use AmpLive to drive millions of qualified viewers to their live events.

AmpLive delivers to the entire internet at scale and can help brands acquire new audiences beyond and in addition to Facebook Live and Youtube.

“There is no denying the engagement and impact of live streaming in media today.  We are seeing the development of the experience economy where people want to invest in events and experiences and if they cannot attend in person they want to have collaborative and participatory experiences that our best practice live streaming approach provides.  Now with AmpLive we are able to extend these experiences to even larger and more engaged audiences creating a win for all stakeholders” said John Petrocelli, CEO and founder of Bulldog DM.
