Hiring a Newsletter Ad Ops Specialist: common questions
What does newsletter ad ops involve?
Everything between a sponsor saying yes and that sponsor renewing: booking the slot, collecting and checking creatives, placing ads with the right tracking, reporting results and chasing payment.
Do your Specialists understand CPA, CPC and flat-fee deals?
Yes. VAST's newsletter team works across flat-fee sponsorships and performance deals, and we train your Specialist on your rate card and tracking setup before they start.
Will they talk to our advertisers directly?
If you want them to. Many publishers have their Specialist handle creative collection, approvals and reporting directly with advertisers, while sales stays with you.
Can they work across several newsletters?
Yes. Managing one ad calendar across a portfolio of newsletters is one of the main reasons publishers hire for this role.
