LOCAL BILLBOARD NETWORK GUIDE
WHAT IS THE BEST BILLBOARD NETWORK FOR LOCAL VISIBILITY?
THE RIGHT NETWORK PUTS YOUR BUSINESS WHERE YOUR CUSTOMERS ALREADY GO.

You choose from available locations. DDM creates your full-motion ad and manages the campaign.

THE SHORT ANSWER
THE BEST NETWORK IS THE ONE THAT FITS YOUR MARKET.
A large network is not automatically the right network. A local business needs screens inside the communities and customer environments it actually serves.
DDM lets advertisers choose from available local venues instead of requiring every business to buy the entire network. The campaign is built around market fit, current screen availability and the business category.
THE RIGHT LOCATIONS MATTER MORE THAN THE LARGEST NUMBER.

THE BUSINESS RISK
ANOTHER BUSINESS CAN BECOME FAMILIAR FIRST.
Customers often consider businesses they already know or recognize. If competing businesses appear regularly inside the communities you serve and yours does not, they receive more opportunities to become familiar.
A useful local network places your message where future customers already spend time, before an active search or buying decision begins.
THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENTS
Compare actual venues, not only categories or total screen count.
THE RIGHT CATEGORY AVAILABILITY
Confirm whether your business category is still available on the screens you want.

CLEARER CAMPAIGN MEASUREMENT
PLAYS ARE COUNTED. IMPRESSIONS ARE MODELED.
A play is one logged, scheduled appearance of an advertisement on one screen. An impression estimates an opportunity for someone to see the advertisement.
AD PLAY
One recorded, scheduled appearance of the advertisement.
ESTIMATED IMPRESSION
A modeled opportunity for someone to encounter the advertisement.
One DDM advertising slot averages approximately 1,500 plays per screen per month.
This is a network average, not a guaranteed minimum. Individual delivery varies with venue operating hours, screen availability and campaign terms.
Each DDM screen runs a fixed 15-minute loop. One advertising slot is scheduled to appear once during each loop while the screen and venue are operating.

FIT BEFORE SPEND
DOES THE NETWORK MATCH YOUR BUSINESS?
DDM MAY FIT YOUR BUSINESS IF
- You serve customers in defined local communities.
- Familiarity influences who customers consider.
- You want to choose specific venues or markets.
- You value repeated visibility before active demand.
- You want creative and campaign management included.
- Your preferred screens and category are available.
DDM MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT IF
- Your market is outside the DDM coverage area.
- Your audience is too specialized for the available venues.
- You need immediate click-level attribution.
- You expect guaranteed leads or sales.
- No suitable screen or category availability exists.
Screen and category availability can change. When an eligible business secures category exclusivity for an agreed market and screen scope, that opportunity closes to qualifying competitors for the term.
