How to Turn Post-Purchase Moments into Ad Revenue – with Thanks’ Doron Ostrin

This week we're joined by Doron Ostrin, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Thanks – the customer-first ad network that’s transforming how brands show up after checkout.

Doron shares why the most underutilized moment in digital commerce might just be the one right after a purchase—and how Thanks is turning it into a high-performing, brand-building opportunity.

We also dig into:

• Why interruptive advertising needs a rethink
• The creative philosophy behind “ads that don’t feel like ads”
• How Thanks landed a game-changing deal with eBay
• Making room for better monetization without killing UX
• Why newsletters might be the next frontier
