Out of home advertising

Out of home advertising, or OOH. One tiny acronym to cover a sprawling advertising ecosystem.

From giant HD digital screens to pub beer mats, OOH is everywhere. Show us a moderately flat surface and we'll show you a way to advertise on it.

Channels

OOH is important, not just for advertisers and media owners, but for councils, public transport operators, and the public alike.

You might be surprised to learn that up to 50% of the revenue generated by OOH advertising is returned to the public purse funding councils and transport providers. If not for OOH advertising, there would be fewer defibrillators on our streets and poorer mobile phone connectivity. There are even adverts which suck greenhouse gas from the atmosphere, sequestering it safely away. No other channel can make a claim like that.

OOH is the only channel which reaches more than 95% of the UK population every week. There are dozens of formats and if the right format doesn’t exist, advertisers can build their own custom sites to create immersive brand experiences.

As more of the UK OOH estate goes digital, the possibilities for advertisers are expanding. Along with the traditional two week in charge periods for paper and ink sites, brands can buy programmatically, use environmental triggers like the weather or pollen count, or run on specific days of week and time of day. With OOH brands can run geo-targeted messages in national campaigns or make themselves famous in a small area for a low budget. We can even leverage data from smart phones using TARGETR, our in-house audience targeting solution, to execute pinpoint accurate campaigns.

We have years of experience delivering unmissable OOH campaigns for our clients. There's nothing more satisfying than seeing a brand come to life out there in the real world, so drop us a line to find out how we can make it real for you.
