Can Programmatic Buying Help Make Digital Place-based Media Easier to Transact?
New York, NY (PRWEB) December 09, 2013 -- Programmatic systems have transformed the media buying process, enabling brands and their agencies to simplify and streamline the purchase of online audiences. While programmatic buying accounts for more than half of all online display purchases today, it’s still a relatively new concept for the digital place-based advertising space.
A new report just released by ScreenMedia Daily examines the issues surrounding the planning and buying process for digital place-based media. The report, Programmatic Buying and Digital Place-based Media, is aimed at CMOs, media strategists, and digital out-of-home operators, and provides insight into how programmatic buying solutions can help make the medium easier to transact.
The digital place-based advertising medium is unique because it intercepts on-the-go consumers with relevant, highly targeted messages as they move through the day. Digital place-based networks (DPN), also known as digital out-of-home (DOOH) media, utilize networked digital signage displays with highly targeted messages to reach consumers in venues such as transportation hubs and shopping centers. The medium addresses two unique trends driving the market: localization and urbanization. Both trends, along with the medium’s increasing reach and scale, have caught the advertising world’s attention.
“As urbanization increases, it’s becoming more cost-effective for brands to reach consumers using urban media platforms such as digital place-based media, digital billboards, and location-based mobile media. Programmatic buying is making it easier for brands to leverage location-based marketing across multiple screen platforms,” said Lionel Tepper, Managing Editor, ScreenMedia Daily. “To compile this report, we interviewed network operators and media executives in the digital place-based media space, and drew from more than 5 years of place-based media examination and reporting. We examined the issues with the planning and buying process, and provide a glimpse into solutions currently under development that are designed to facilitate the buying of digital place-based media.”
