Abstract

A computer-implemented method of implementing an advertising campaign may include receiving content that includes a plurality of terms, analyzing the content for one or more terms that are relevant to a product or service, using at least one of the relevant terms to develop a plurality of keywords and automatically generating an advertising production sheet comprising at least one of the keywords and a creative.
