Beyond Traffic Counts in Philadelphia

Digital out-of-home advertising utilizes screens in the physical world to present messages. This approach considers how people move through a city, integrating advertising into daily routines. Rather than solely relying on generalized impressions, this method focuses on placing screens where they naturally intersect with journeys. This ensures that a message is seen as part of the urban experience, reaching audiences at relevant points in their day.

For businesses in Philadelphia, this means moving past general traffic counts to understand actual audience flow. Our approach determines optimal screen locations by analyzing pedestrian paths, transit routes, and common activity centers. This method ensures that digital displays are situated not just where many people pass, but specifically where target audiences are present and receptive. The goal is to maximize visibility by aligning screen placement with observable human movement patterns across the city.

Our work involves understanding local movement patterns to select precise screen placements, making digital out-of-home a strategic component of a broader advertising effort. We plan these placements using the same audience models that guide other advertising channels, ensuring coherence across all touchpoints. This integrated strategy helps businesses in Philadelphia connect with their target audiences effectively, building awareness through real-world visibility in key locations.
