Social media is on the ascendancy, but marketers are still struggling to understand the value and the role that the channel plays in their wider efforts. Social advertising is also becoming more important, as social networks start to lean towards paid amplification of content, and away from organic reach.

Milena manages product development for the social ads part of the Adobe Media Optimizer solution, and possesses a detailed knowledge of social ad programmes.
