The Seven Network announced enhancements to its ad buying across broadcast and digital platforms, including a deal with customer relationship management (CRM) service Salesforce and the integration of VOZ data. 

Its audience automation solution is now called CODE 7+, a state-of-the-art digital and broadcast converged media trading platform, using the latest in CRM technology from Salesforce. 

The solution, announced during Seven’s 2022 Upfront presentation, will integrate the new industry total audience measurement VOZ, along with Seven’s audience intelligence platform 7REDiQ.

The Salesforce CRM and advanced order management system from Salesforce Media Cloud will help boost the ability to trade Seven, 7plus and other platforms, together with the evolution of dynamic, converged television buying across broadcast and digital platforms.

CODE 7+ streamlines bookings and offers guaranteed delivery, freeing time for agencies to focus on strategic initiatives and creating better outcomes for clients.

Seven West Media chief revenue officer Kurt Burnette: “CODE 7+ is an absolute game changer that will revolutionise TV trading in Australia, making it easier and more effective through Australia’s most engaged and addressable audience.

"The integration of VOZ total audience data will be a huge boost for marketers looking to reach large and engaged audiences in Seven’s powerhouse content, as well as identify and reach shifting consumers as they move across broadcast and digital.

“Salesforce's global-leading technology will enable us to digitally transform our processes and will fuel the accelerated growth of cross-screen trading.

"Our evolved platform will create a foundation for future technology evolution and allow us to consolidate our customer data and aggregate client insights and information.

“As part of Seven’s digital transformation, our continued investment in trading technology is all about making it simpler for buyers to execute with ease across our platforms, to speed up the process and to achieve better results."

Christopher Dean, VP and GM for Media Cloud at Salesforce: "We’re excited to team up with Seven West Media to support the digital transformation of its advertising sales process by delivering a converged media planning and campaign tracking solution with a single source of truth for data and reporting.

“We’re working globally with leaders like Seven to automate processes and ultimately accelerate their transformation to address the dynamic, ever changing converged advertising sales market.”
