LOCAL INDOOR DIGITAL ADVERTISING

WHAT IS INDOOR DIGITAL BILLBOARD ADVERTISING?

Indoor digital billboard advertising places advertisements on commercial-grade screens inside local businesses, where customers encounter them while they wait, shop, dine, exercise or spend time with family.

Unlike a roadside billboard that someone passes once, an indoor advertisement can appear several times during the same visit and again when the customer returns.

With DDM, you choose available screens in the communities you serve. We create your full-motion advertisement and manage the campaign.

WHY LOCAL VISIBILITY MATTERS

CUSTOMERS OFTEN CHOOSE THE BUSINESS THEY RECOGNIZE.

A customer may not need a dentist, contractor, restaurant or fitness studio today. But when that need appears, familiar businesses are more likely to enter the consideration set.

Indoor advertising helps your business become familiar before the customer starts searching. Your message appears in local places your potential customers already visit.

BE SEEN LOCALLY

Choose available screens in the communities your business serves.

BUILD FAMILIARITY

Repeated appearances help customers become familiar with your name and offer.

PROMOTE WHAT MATTERS

Feature a service, promotion, event or reason to contact your business.

A REAL LOCAL NETWORK

PUT YOUR BUSINESS INSIDE PLACES LOCAL CUSTOMERS ALREADY VISIT.

DDM operates 34 screens across 33 venue partners in DuPage, Kane, Kendall and Will Counties. Eighteen screens are in Naperville.

The screen and venue totals differ because one venue has two screens at separate counters.

The network includes ice rinks, urgent care centers, grocery stores, car washes, fitness studios, restaurants, a children’s museum, martial arts and youth sports facilities, pet supply retail and family entertainment venues.

CLEAR DELIVERY REPORTING

PLAYS ARE COUNTED. IMPRESSIONS ARE MODELED.

WHAT IS A PLAY?

A play is one scheduled appearance of an advertisement on one screen. The system logs that appearance.

WHAT IS AN IMPRESSION?

An impression is an estimated opportunity to see an advertisement based on factors such as venue traffic and dwell time. It is not a confirmed view or a counted person.

DDM uses advertising plays to describe scheduled delivery. A play confirms that the advertisement appeared. It does not claim that every person inside the venue watched it.
