ADFLOW provides Digital Media Management technology that delivers dynamic marketing messages to digital and interactive displays with an innovative single Web-based application. It offers SaaS to private retail networks, ad-pay networks, sales assist kiosks and customer loyalty kiosks.

Remember that back in Dec./08, DailyDOOH had the foresight to name ADFLOW as one of the 10 companies to watch in 2009? We were right. The company ranked 46th in PROFIT’s annual list recognizing the achievements of Canada’s entrepreneurial elite.

PROFIT’s ranking of Canada’s fastest-growing companies is by five-year revenue growth. Between 2003 and 2008, ADFLOW recorded a total growth of 1,615% with a 2008 revenue of CA$3,429,663.

The PROFIT 100 profiles the country’s most successful growth companies in the June issue of PROFIT and online at PROFIT100.com, celebrating entrepreneurial achievement in Canada. On average, 2009 PROFIT 100 companies grew their revenue by 2,262% over the past five years.

“This award is a tribute to the loyalty and on-going support of our customers, the commitment of our employees and the strategic vision our company has maintained from the beginning.” says David Roscoe, ADFLOW’s CEO.

ADFLOW Networks has over a decade of in-store experience and offers patented technology that is innovative, scalable and simple to use. Among its many clients are Canadian Tire Financial Services, Koodo Mobile, Office Max, and The Nuance Group. The majority of its business is in Canada, with about 26% in the U.S., where it has an office in Chicago.

“The PROFIT 100 are an inspiration to entrepreneurs at all stages of growth, from startup to major corporation,” says Ian Portsmouth, editor of PROFIT. “Their business practices and product innovations are exemplary of how businesses can succeed in uncertain times.”

Published six times a year by Rogers Publishing Ltd., PROFIT is distributed almost exclusively to the chief executives of companies with 5 to 250 employees and annual revenue of CA$1 million to $25 million, reaching 306,000 readers across Canada.

The World’s Biggest Coffee Morning 2007 campaign for Macmillan Cancer Support was one of the first creative campaigns that saw a multitude of Digital Out Of Home networks unite to help promote a charitable cause.

Over 20 DOOH Networks across the UK donated airtime to playout a variety of creative executions that aimed to encourage people to hold a coffee morning raising awareness of Macmillan Cancer Support and the work it does to support people living with cancer.

In 2007 the creative focussed on extending the brand ‘silhouette’ idea and developing an animated identity that played on various elements of the coffee making ritual, the cup, spoon, the coffee itself and the social intricacies of a coffee morning. The campaign was a great success with eye-catching creative played out across the UK over 2 weeks in the run up to the event itself.

This year, the traditional media campaign creative is similar in that the silhouette idea remains but in a more forceful call to action style – 3 arms are raised proffering 3 different types of coffee cups in a ‘coffee salute’.

My team at Amigo Digital are currently working on the creative for this which will consist of teaser executions as well as a fully animated campaign – our aim is to innovate and gain awareness through the creative idea as much as through the mass of publicity – a challenge in itself.

Yesterday we released much earlier than usual our Grand Prix Preview for the Barcelona event on 27th April 2008. Because of the unusually long gap between GPs (3 weeks between Bahrain and Barcelona) we think it made sense to release the short form content (the 10 and 30 second spot lengths) to networks now rather than wait for the week before race weekend.

I am sure networks will tell us what they think.
