What is the advantage to working with an outside media buyer as opposed to having just an internal marketing director?

I see them both on equal level. Both bring a different skillset, but their level of expertise is equal. It depends on their knowledge of the industry, data, platforms, and strategy.


What is one tip that you would give when it comes to media planning?

Make sure you have options to decide the overall direction of your strategy. Sample, if necessary, before proceeding in the direction you want to go.
