Video Transcript:The next trend that is coming is real-time bidding. I think that more and more ad networks are moving to it. Real-time bidding for sure will bring more efficiency to the ad buying in the industry. As today it is really hard to understand waterfalls. I would add other transparency to the market. That layer of transparency and real-time is really needed in the industry to go a step further.I personally started to work with Chartboost since the very beginning, when you developed your cross-promotion system. I think that was back in 2011, when I was part of another company back then. The relationship with Chartboost has always been excellent in terms of account management and service providing.The advice I would give to any developer to succeed in this industry would be to try to stay calm and not be anxious about the things that you are doing. Don?t try to reach a goal super fast. Be calm. Sleep on your thoughts and make sure you do things when you are sure about them. Don?t run into them.?Secondly, is to try not to be stubborn about your ideas. Try to find excuses to why that is not working. Try to be humble and recognize that maybe you made a mistake and you need to turn in order to succeed in the future.Interested in being featured in our Dev Spotlight Series?
