CEO Eric Wheeler has steered 33Across through many upheavals in programmatic advertising over his 13 years with the company. In this episode he talks about that journey, the important distinction between ads and attention, changes to third party cookies and the continued opportunity to innovate in ad tech.

How do you regain your employees' trust? It was a question Eric Wheeler wrestled with after his company, 33Across, had to pivot and lay off 70% of his workforce. He needed to keep his remaining talent focused, and recruit new people to execute a brand new vision. So he tried something new: Radical transparency. He'd start sharing all the company's financial secrets. And it worked.

This week David talks with CEO and co-founder of 33 Across, Eric Wheeler. Eric shares thoughts on being prepared for future scenarios, the challenges of all the new digital platforms and getting better than the standard IAB view for your online ads.

Today David is joined by 33 Across founder Eric Wheeler. While the biggest players in the industry like Google, The Trade Desk and agency programmatic platforms like Xaxis scoop up the majority of the $50 billion now flowing through automated advertising trading platforms, specialist services have emerged to meet marketers' needs for transparency and impact. The company name refers to the toughest crossword puzzles that can be solved if you decipher a large horizontal word in the middle of the puzzle. According to Wheeler, in many difficult puzzles these are often around 32 or 33 across. “33Across unlocks the puzzle of quality online advertising,” says Wheeler.

As the Star Warriors reunite with Leia on Shiva IV to combat the forces of the Galactic Empire, Brian and Sam welcome Eric Wheeler (of Text Before Calling) on to the show for a freewheeling debate over the merits and flaws of both the sequel and prequel trilogies, a ridiculously extensive look back at the filmography of The Mandalorian's very own Werner Herzog, an examination of the mind of George Lucas, and, very occasionally, a look back at the second part of this strange issue of the old Star Wars comics from the eighties. Happy Holidays, fellow explorers!

33Across is an advertising technology company focused on solving the challenge of consumer attention. Their Attention Platform is the first programmatic solution to unify high-impact creative, quality supply, and true technology-driven scale. Delivering superior audience engagement to brands and providing publishers with the ability to drive incremental revenue, the platform results in greater efficiency and a better consumer experience. While online ad spend grew to $88 billion last year, according to the Interactive Advertising Bureau, more than 90% of that growth last year went to Google or Facebook. Meanwhile, these two companies – and suddenly AT&T - are seemingly scooping up adtech companies left and right. So the obvious question is, is it even possible in this new world to be a profitable independent digital advertising company? Or, are all these companies, to put it bluntly, screwed? Eric Wheeler should have been feeling good. It was July of 2012 and he’d just raised a $13M Series C round. But, the founder and CEO of high-flying adtech startup, 33Across, had an uneasy feeling. One that would soon morph into despair. Seemingly overnight, 33Across would see millions of dollars in pipeline disappear while it saw its near profitable status turn into millions of loss. That $13M Series C was quickly evaporating. Eric knew he had to make some changes immediately. Ones that would involve re-inventing the company. All told, 33Across would lose $4M more than planned in the turn-around. Looking back on the experience, Eric says, “What I didn’t realize at the time was how incredibly hard it is to take a business and turn it so quickly when faced with such strong and dominating headwinds.” Eric shares the dramatic 180-degree pivot the company made and creating an entirely new business model while simultaneously convincing investors and customers (agencies and large brands) to stick with the company. And, the turnaround has been dramatic. 33Across has seen 100% year-over-year growth for the past four years and has effectively gone from zero revenue to an annual run-rate of $100M while becoming profitable. How did Eric accomplish this feat? “The things that were putting our model out of business - the move to programmatic (automated online) advertising, the need for more transparency, the focus on greater ad quality - were the exact things that we ended up basing the business on going forward.” Listen to Eric Wheeler's inspirational story on my daily tech podcast.  

President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, ruling Uzbekistan since December 2016, has initiated several milestone reforms aiming to create a market economy and open the country for foreign investors. Alexey Yugai, Associate Director and Eric Wheeler, Senior Associate in our Business Intelligence & Investigations team, have been on the ground meeting with international and Uzbek business people, as well as relevant figures in the public sector, outside political observers and journalists. This podcast will provide insight on the ongoing economic and judicial reforms, challenges that the government is likely to face while implementing them, and the opportunities that this changing landscape presents to foreign investors.

Jurassic June concludes with a lesson about the power of compassion and friendship amid bleakness and despair, as Eric Wheeler of Text Before Calling joins us on our journey to THE LAND BEFORE TIME!
