Digital out-of-home

Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) Advertising

Put your brand on digital billboards, transit and place-based screens in the markets that matter. Floodlight plans the locations, timing, creative and measurement behind a DOOH campaign.

Available inventory includes

Access and availability vary by market, audience, budget, and campaign.

Make the location part of the plan.

Choose screens around real journeys

A highway billboard, transit display and screen inside a venue reach people in different settings. Floodlight reviews the market, venue type and likely audience before recommending placements. A high-traffic location is useful only when it fits the business goal.

Match the message to the setting

People passing a billboard may have only seconds to read it. Other venues offer a longer viewing opportunity. Use a clear brand, short message and readable creative, with motion and technical requirements confirmed for the selected screens.

Plan timing and availability

Programmatic buying can offer flexibility in locations, dayparts and flight dates where supported. Availability depends on the screen network and the buy. We confirm the relevant inventory and delivery expectations rather than promising a particular screen without checking access.

DOOH campaign planning and management.

Floodlight recommends markets, venue types, timing and budget allocation, then coordinates campaign setup, pacing and reporting. Available networks may include OUTFRONT, Lamar and Clear Channel Outdoor; access varies by campaign.

The plan connects the placement to the creative. A design that works on a phone may be difficult to read across a street or from a moving vehicle. Any adaptations and approvals are scoped before launch.

DOOH can support a store opening, local awareness effort, seasonal campaign or broader media plan. Streaming audio, CTV or display can extend the message when there is a clear audience and measurement reason to combine them.

Know what an out-of-home impression means.

Delivery records and audience estimates help explain where and when a campaign ran. DOOH impressions are generally estimates of opportunities to see a screen, not a count of identified people who watched the ad.

Where available and appropriate, foot-traffic or lift measurement can add context. Coverage, methodology, sample size and comparison design matter. An attributed store visit does not by itself prove that the campaign caused an additional visit or purchase.
