Accretive Media this week launched a digital-out-of-home advertising platform fueled by people-based profile data.
We are told that the new platform reaches targeted consumers on digital screens at nearly 100K venues across the United States ranging from ATMs to airports, restaurants, gyms, train and subway stations, malls, office buildings, universities and more.
Craig Benner, Founder & CEO of Accretive Media told us “Consumers spend more than 70 percent of their time out of the home, carrying at least one mobile device that we are able to deterministically link back to their interests, behaviors, movement patterns, offline purchase history, and other key attributes. Connecting the dots between out-of-home displays and mobile devices, Accretive can tap into this rich data and action against it in DOOH. Our platform transforms the outdoor medium into a more addressable and accountable format that drives serious results. Advertisers have never debated the power of outdoor, but they’ve always acknowledged its targeting and measurement limitations. We have solved for that today. As brands start to realize the true ROI that can be achieved with DOOH, we anticipate massive growth in the market.”
Allegedly, the key to Accretive Media’s solution is its proprietary data lake. The Accretive Data Lake (ADL) is one of the most advanced consumer data platforms in the ad-tech space. ADL combines location and geotemporal information with people-based profiles and deterministic attributes to create a comprehensive view of a consumer’s digital and physical footprint. This intelligence informs Accretive’s strategy team to build impactful consumer targeting strategies that are executed within the platform. After each campaign, rich insights and analytics are delivered to the advertiser that provide more visibility into audiences, opportunities, and real business outcomes than ever before. This actionable information is fed back into the ADL to create a self-cycling knowledge base.
Founder & CEO Craig Benner is a 15-year veteran of the technology and digital advertising space, most recently Senior Vice President at Viant, a Time Inc. Company, where he ran eight US offices leading all sales and support operations. His team oversaw hundreds of millions of dollars in ad spend and led the launch of multiple new technology innovations.
