Question for Media Sellers: How Much Time Do You Spend Responding to RFPs?

[polldaddy poll=”4204099″]


OAAA: 7% Increase in Out of Home Advertising in Q3

The Outdoor Advertising Association of America (OAAA) released figures showing a 7% increase in revenue in Q3 2010 (vs. Q3 2009) for the Out-of-Home (OOH) advertising industry. Year to date, OOH advertising revenues are up 3.3% over 2009. The media and financial segments helped drive the increase, with the financial institutions reporting a one third increase in spending over the same period in 2009.

Although unspecified in this release by the OAAA, the Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) category would seemingly be the fastest growing category in OOH. According to PQ Media data released on November 15th, the U.S. Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) media category, which includes digital place-based networks, billboards and signage (including cinema), grew 14.9% in the first half of 2010.

Large advertisers and agencies are recognizing the cost effectiveness, reach, and impact of Out-of-Home and Digital Out-of-Home Advertising. Garry McGuire, CEO of RMG Networks, believes the DOOH industry will reach a tipping point in 2011. Exciting times for both media buyers and sellers in the industry. If in fact the DOOH media category is reaching a tipping point, expect that the biggest beneficiaries will be those who support & adhere to industry standards, are transparent in their reporting, and provide a truly valuable advertising medium. DOmedia is working to promote the industry by creating a marketplace built on industry standards to simplify the process of buying and selling OOH media.


Simplifying the Process of Buying & Selling OOH Media

Who We Are

DOmedia is a technology company that believes there is a more efficient way to buy and sell out-of-home advertising. We have experience building online ‘€œmarketplaces’€ to support the creation of standards that brings efficiencies to the industry, resulting in category growth and increased profits for all stakeholders. Agencies, sellers, & technology providers are all shepherds of the Brand’s dollars and have a responsibility to find the most effective way to guide it.

To date, we have created the largest online marketplace and searchable database of OOH media inventory with technology tools to efficiently connect over 350 media buyers and 700 media sellers.

Who We Are Not

We are not media aggregators in the sense that we do not buy, own nor sell media.  We do not place ourselves ‘€œin the middle’€ of the buyers and sellers.  Media sellers retain the sole sales relationship with media buyers & planners.

 

The Benefits of an Open Marketplace

An open, transparent marketplace creates value for our industry in several ways. Both buyers and sellers benefit through:

  1. Increased visibility, standards, and efficiencies that scales buying capability
  2. Improved and broadened consumer targeting
  3. Increased productivity & streamlined processes
  4. Improved client responsiveness and more effective solutions
  5. A data driven approach to addressing Proof of Performance & ROI

Over time this technology will create institutional knowledge for both the buyer & seller and enable them to spend more time on strategic opportunities and less time on non-value added, repetitive tasks. A transparent marketplace benefits users by its ability to quantify and differentiate value and effectiveness thus justifying higher costs and margins where demonstrable.  This in turn helps buyers invest in media that delivers better results for their clients.

Our Media Sellers

We have partnered with OOH media sellers of all shapes and sizes. Our technology tools apply to both small and large media sellers in the traditional, alternative and digital out-of-home advertising industry.  Media sellers control what and how much information they make available in the marketplace ‘€“ and it is free to register and create basic profiles.  You can browse our current companies list or DO a free search using DOfind, our powerful search tool, to see for yourself.

Our Commitment to the OOH Industry

‘€œWe will not charge more to our clients than the value we bring.’€

We are actively engaging agencies, advertisers, media providers, industry experts, and industry associations to create the most valuable system for all of our stakeholders. It is important to clearly understand the value and concerns from all sides of our business. If you have feedback we encourage you to call (866-939-3663) or share it with us by email (theteam@domedia.com), as we would greatly value your input.

 

The Future

DOmedia is taking an active role in the future prosperity of the out-of-home advertising industry. Our business model directly aligns our incentives with our stakeholders, both buyers and sellers. Our survival is dependant on bringing value to our clients and we are investing in technology and supporting standards to grow the industry as a whole.  We are excited for the opportunities ahead and look forward to helping all of our stakeholders become more successful.


The Digital Content Store for Digital Screens

As more and more digital screens pop up in high traffic venues across the country, digital networks are struggling to provide up-to-date, relevant content to viewers. Without a dedicated production team or a big name partnership with a content provider, digital networks and venues are left with little choice in terms of engaging content for their viewers. In order for the digital signage industry to be welcomed with open arms, it must provide value to the consumer without being overtly intrusive with advertising.

Screenfeed understands digital signage networks and how important fresh, engaging content is when it comes to attracting viewership. But they also know the toll it can take on a company that creates custom content to fill a playlist, then attempts to continually refresh it. Oftentimes, it just isn’t economically feasible to take that burden on for a digital network.

As The Digital Signage Content Store®, Screenfeed provides the best licensed digital signage content in the industry. Digital networks and operators can subscribe to a number of different channels. Screenfeed will mix them up automatically and consistently deliver the content to the network. And because it works with any digital signage software, you can schedule hours of dynamic content in just minutes! Whether it is one screen or a nationwide network, Screenfeed’s scalable solution can deliver. Plus, because many of their channels offer great looking hi-def content based on photos, graphics and information rather than video, you can get HD content at a low bandwidth.

So What Are the Different Channels?

News-in-Pictures
To attract attention to screens, these channels feature high resolution photos of celebrities, sports heroes, well-known places and events people recognize at a glance. Each photo is accompanied by a brief headline. News-in-Pictures channels include Top News-in-Pictures, Celebrity Life-in-Pictures, and Sports-in-Pictures. Screenfeed also recently added Health, OMG!, Tech, Business, World, Canada and UK News categories as well. Learn more »

Daily Video News
This channel engages viewers at a deeper level, providing videos that include a brief story of a breaking news topic including interviews, movie reviews, politics, business and sports.

Daily Video News channels include Today’s Top Video News, Entertainment Video News, Sports Video News, NewsMinute Daily Video, Showbiz Minute Daily, and Daily Celebrity News. Recently added channels include Today-in-History, Lifestyle, Tech, Business, and Strange News categories.

Weather Graphics & Video
You may not know it, but weather is the #1 requested type of content on digital signage. So why not give the people what they want? Stick with simplicity using the Basic Weather or Weather Graphics Package. Or you can really ‘€œwow’€ your audience with the HD Video Weather, Weather Radar Package, Premium Weather Center or even customize your weather services.
