Media inhousing – flexibility meets control

Optimal control and flexibility for your individual media planning
Media inhousing

What is media inhousing?

Inhousing means transferring tasks and processes that are carried out by agencies to your own company. The aim is to build up internal expertise in order to plan, manage and optimize media activities independently. This gives companies more control, transparency and independence, allows them to manage their data directly and react more quickly to market changes.

Inhousing is flexible: it ranges from complete internal solutions to hybrid models in which certain tasks remain external and can be individually adapted.

With Mercury Media Technology (MMT), you get the optimal solution for your individual inhousing requirements. Whether you handle your media activities completely in-house or rely on hybrid models - our platform offers you the right basis for efficient and transparent workflows.

Advantages

What are the advantages of inhousing?

More and more companies are turning to media inhousing to take their media strategies into their own hands. The reasons for this are obvious:
  1. More control and transparency: companies retain a full overview of media strategies, budgets and campaigns.
  2. Independence: Less dependence on external agencies enables more flexible action.
  3. More efficient data management: Direct access to and use of own data for more precise decisions.
  4. Faster response times: Companies can react to market changes or new trends at short notice.
  5. Cost savings: External agency costs can be saved in the long term if internal structures are set up efficiently.
  6. Customization: Strategies and processes can be tailored precisely to your own needs and goals.
  7. Knowledge transfer and competence building: The internal teams develop know-how and strengthen the company in the long term.
Strategic approach

How complex is inhousing?

Setting up your own media setup requires a strategic approach and the use of valuable resources - an investment that pays off in the long term. It is particularly challenging when external partners or agencies have previously managed the processes and these skills now need to be built up internally.
Successful implementation requires a clear strategy: from planning and knowledge building to the introduction of high-performance technology that is seamlessly integrated and meets all requirements. Without experienced partners, this process can be complex and challenging.
Mercury Media Technology makes this transition easier: our platform creates the foundation for a structured and successful in-house process. Building your own media setup requires strategic planning and investment. The transition from external partners to internal competence building is particularly challenging. Successful inhousing requires:

  • A clear strategy.
  • Building knowledge in a team.
  • Powerful and integrated technology.

Frequently asked questions

What distinguishes Mercury Media Technology from other in-housing solutions or agencies?

Bringing media performance in-house requires careful consideration of support, whether from specialized tech providers or traditional agencies. Agencies often offer services, but their processes and tools can be less transparent.

With MMT: We offer a specialized platform explicitly developed for media in-housing. Unlike agencies or generic tools that require extensive customization or use black-box approaches, MMT provides integrated technology that gives you full control and transparency in-house. MMT is your technology partner, structuring and streamlining your transition to in-housing with clear workflows, training, and continuous optimization.

How flexibly can MMT be integrated into our existing system landscape?

A successful in-housing strategy largely depends on how well new technologies can work with your existing IT infrastructure and marketing stacks without disrupting current operations.

With MMT: Flexibility is a core strength. Our platform is designed for seamless integration into your existing infrastructure. We understand every company has unique marketing stacks and data sources. Our team works closely with you to ensure smooth implementation via APIs or other interfaces. The goal is to establish MMT as the central control unit for your media activities without affecting your proven systems.

What support can your team expect during and after MMT implementation?

The shift to an in-housing model is a process where your team needs continuous support to build new skills and fully leverage the new tools and processes.

With MMT: You're not alone. We offer comprehensive support from the start. Our experienced Customer Success Team guides you through the entire implementation process. This includes detailed training and workshops so your team can work confidently with the platform. Even after implementation, our support team is available for questions and optimization suggestions to ensure the long-term success of your in-housing model.

How does MMT support the establishment and development of an in-house media team within the in-housing model?

Building your own in-house media team requires not just hiring talent, but also their continuous development and empowerment to autonomously manage and optimize complex media activities.

With MMT: MMT is a catalyst for building and strengthening your internal media team. The platform is intuitive and complemented by comprehensive training and best-practice workshops. We foster knowledge transfer and provide clear workflows, so your team becomes experts in data-driven media decisions. This secures the long-term independence and efficiency of your in-housing model.

What role does MMT play in ensuring data sovereignty and transparency within the in-housing model?

In an in-housing model, maintaining full control and oversight of your own marketing data, along with deep insights into campaign performance, is crucial.

With MMT: Data sovereignty and complete transparency are core tenets. Our platform ensures all your media data remains your property, giving you full access and insight at all times into campaign performance, budget allocations, and key metrics. Unlike external service providers, where data often becomes opaque, MMT offers a centralized and clear control interface. This provides precise control over expenditures and well-founded analysis for continuous optimization of your marketing strategy, all based on your own comprehensive data.
