Advertising was once the realm of dealmakers and ad creators, where success hinged on smart strategies, robust relationships with media proprietors, and substantial budgets.
Enter the era of digital media. With its vast ocean of data points and the capability for real-time media buying, advertising transformed into a precise science overnight. The balance of power shifted; sheer buying clout was eclipsed by the might of intellectual prowess.
D3 was born in 2018 from a vision to redefine media with greater accountability and a scientific approach rooted in continual testing and learning. Our goal was not just to establish another agency but to create one that we could take pride in — an agency epitomising transparency and impartiality in every aspect of its operation.
