Programmatic Advertising Edge The Irish Times commands a large weekly readership across print and digital and already operates with programmatic ad tech (DoubleClick Ad Exchange). This points to strong monetization potential for brand and performance advertisers through cross-platform campaigns, premium inventory packages, sponsorships, and native content opportunities. Proposals can emphasize managed programmatic support and access to first-party data insights.
CRM and Data Opportunities With Salesforce Desk in use, there is a solid CRM foundation for advertiser relations and B2B partnerships. This can be leveraged to offer CRM optimization, marketing automation, and data-driven lead generation packages to brands seeking targeted campaigns across The Irish Times' channels.
Gaelic and Education Recent collaboration with Foras na Gaeilge highlights a niche in Gaelic language content and education-focused initiatives. Opportunities exist for sponsorships, Gaelic content campaigns, educational partnerships, and event sponsorships that engage Gaelic-speaking audiences in Ireland and abroad.
Global Audience Publicized expansion signals a strategy to reach audiences beyond Ireland, creating opportunities for international advertising packages, diaspora-targeted campaigns, and content licensing or distribution partnerships with brands seeking to engage Irish communities worldwide.
Brand and Content Monetization The Irish Times' authority and digital-first approach with newsletters and podcasts supports a suite of sponsored content, newsletter sponsorships, podcast ads, native articles and live events. This provides sales opportunities for branded content programs and sponsor partnerships aligned with reader interests.
