Chris Richmond (CEO / Co-Founder)

Proper Media’s header bidding platform was created to give other publishers access to enterprise level technology in order to increase revenue while streamlining operations and maintaining profitability. As with most website owners, Chris & Drew were tired of being disappointed by countless advertising partners that never lived up to their promises. They knew there had to be a more efficient way to create competition for their website’s ad inventory outside of the traditional waterfall structure. This led them to become some of the earliest innovators in the header bidding space.
