Merge Healthcare kiosks have two significant measures of their audience, measured users and impressions. Measured users are the number of people who participate in a blood pressure assessment. Impressions are the commonly conceived measure of impressions in a specific venue. In an average 30-day cycle Merge delivers 1,560 new measured users and 6,313 impressions. The dwell time for measured users is a minimum of 60 seconds; they are literally locked into your advertising! The 60-second dwell time is the longest of any in-store advertising program.

Previous Merge advertising partners from Proctor & Gamble, Kraft (Cadbury & Halls), Kimberly-Clark, Kellogg’s and Orange Juice (FDOC) all saw same store sales lifts during campaigns with Merge. The ability to deliver uninterrupted advertising drives home a brand’s desired call to action. With multiple panels available on the healthcare kiosk branding messages can be delivered along with calls to action. The most popular call to action is informing the kiosk user of the locations of products within the store. Users leave their wellness assessment ready and poised to walk down the nearest isle and buy your product. Here is a sample of same store sales lift provided by Merge advertising campaigns.
