What TimeOne Group does

TimeOne Group is a French digital marketing services company founded around 2006 and headquartered in Levallois-Perret, focused on customer acquisition, qualified lead generation, and brand engagement. The company runs a multi-product operating stack anchored by proprietary technology platforms: the Client Centric Platform for campaign analysis and ROI optimization, Prométhée for ethical tracking and attribution, the Affiliation Platform for affiliate program management across advertisers, publishers, and agencies, Prospect Lab for B2B lead scoring and nurturing, and Dashboards & Dataviz for reporting. Service offerings include programmatic media activation across Meta, Google, YouTube, Amazon Ads, Pinterest, DOOH, digital audio, and influencer channels, plus specialized drive-to-store and predictive mobile retargeting solutions. The company maintains APIs (Reporting, Advertiser Online, Publisher Online) and pursues R&D collaboration with academic institutions including Centrale Paris and Paris Saclay University.

TimeOne operates a hybrid B2B sales motion combining direct enterprise sales for large clients, inside sales for mid-market, a self-serve advertiser platform, and channel/affiliate partnerships including white-label offerings for agencies. Revenue is generated primarily through performance-based marketing services, affiliate network commission flows, programmatic media buying fees, and B2B professional services engagements. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year contracts; no public tiered pricing is disclosed. The company claims 500+ clients across e-commerce, travel and leisure, B2B services, hygiene/beauty/health, brick-and-mortar retail, and Chinese e-commerce merchants expanding into European markets, with named logos including Babbel, Match.com, Interflora, and Bouygues Telecom.

In June 2021, TimeOne merged with Isoskèle, the data marketing and communication agency of La Poste Group (France's state-owned postal and digital services group), making Isoskèle/La Poste Group the parent organization. At the time of the merger, TimeOne reported €40M in revenue and ~110 employees. Post-merger the entity operates with a broader French office network (Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux, Rennes, Nantes, Chambéry) plus Madrid, and reports approximately 101-250 total employees. The combined business is positioned as a leader in French data-driven marketing with European ambitions.
