Targeting Today without Five Tier
- Many brands and agencies buy DOOH, Linear Television, and Terrestrial Radio by targeting regions and DMAs. This mass media approach produces a tremendous amount of waste – as everyone in a region is not an ideal buyer
- More specific targeting is demo and gender based, but still often within regions and DMAs. This is typically accomplished by targeting TV/Radio networks and shows that attract that target audience
- Digital display is similar – via content and contextual targeting
- Still a tremendous amount of waste. And often high CPMs in order to compete on these networks for the audience’s attention
Digital Cross Screen Today without Five Tier
- Cross Screen is typically bought by brands and agencies by negotiating and contracting with multiple screen owners for each form of media. Typically:
- 3-5 different contracts for Billboards
- 4-7 for CTV/OTT
- 2-4 for Digital Audio
- Potentially another 5-15 for Supermarkets, Bars, Movie Theaters, Elevators, Gas Stations, Point of Care, Salons, Universities, etc
- This process is extremely labor intensive
- Virtually impossible to aggregate the different data sets to optimize or have coherent reporting
- Typically all those different reports are examined at end of campaign to determine which ones were effective and which weren’t. Then contracts are either renewed or not
- Attribution is challenging – as matchbacks and conversion data is difficult to tie back to all the different screens
