Boost brings attribution reporting, data visualization and multi-channel retargeting capabilities to transit outdoor advertising

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wrapify, the performance-driven ad tech platform for brands powered by OOH and the gig-economy, today announced a first-of-its-kind product for the transit media space with the launch of its Boost Platform, turning a moving out-of-home (OOH) ad placement into digital and physical retargeting with full attribution and measurement.

Historically, transit OOH and attribution has been difficult to measure. Boost encompasses all of the features that turn a moving OOH ad placement into digital and physical retargeting with full attribution and measurement. For the first time, offline-to-online advertising for transit OOH operators and fleet operators are able to access attribution and retargeting data in a dashboard online.

By leveraging Boost, brands can connect their fleet’s location data, create targeted audiences, extend the reach of their OOH ad placement and measure performance against custom conversion goals. Brands can also access attribution reporting from OOH exposure as well as retargeting reporting, OOH media measurement and data visualization.

“We are excited to enable our mobile billboard fleet with the powerful attribution and retargeting capabilities that Wrapify Boost provides,” said Jeff Griffing, CEO AllOver Media. “AllOver Media has been fortunate that over the last 18 years our mobile billboard customers have been very loyal based on their ROI. We’re now happy to pilot a program with Wrapify and their new tools that can help our customers enhance their media investments even further.”

Enabling branded vehicles with Wrapify’s Boost Platform can turbocharge existing branded fleet inventory of trucks, vans and corporate vehicles with multi-channel ‘Physical Retargeting’ and attribution.

“This powerful gravitas is unique to OOH, yet it’s no longer enough on its own. The industry must endeavor to prove itself with science,” says James Heller, CEO and Co-founder of Wrapify. “Luckily, the work we’ve done over the past five years on our own OOH platform created the opportunity to inform smarter attribution, retargeting and tracking for ROI for the rest of the industry. This is a game-changer for Wrapify and the transit OOH segment at large.”

San Diego, CA — July 14th, 2020 — Wrapify, the performance-driven ad tech platform for brands powered by out-of-home (OOH) and the gig economy, today announced its newest update to its online dashboard, providing real-time access to its attribution and retargeting data for a moving OOH ad placement.

“It is really exciting to see attribution technology persist across the OOH ecosystem,” said Udi Ledergor, CMO at Gong. “It helps demonstrate the value and ROI of OOH, which has always been a big challenge for marketers. It also helps bridge the gap between offline and online marketing, which we’ve all been trying to do for the better part of a decade.”

With the recent pandemic and recession in 2020, brands are looking for unique ways to hyper-target their ideal markets, not just out on the streets, but in targeted neighborhoods and homes as well. As brands have increasingly been returning to advertising outside of the home more than ever, Wrapify’s latest advertiser dashboard allows them to measure this medium digitally for effective monitoring and scaling.

“Helping media strategists visualize campaign performance data in real-time is fundamental to informed decision making,” explains Kasper Koczab, OOH industry veteran. “With these new dashboard features, Wrapify is leading the way among OOH providers by giving brands the insights they need to make the most of their media investments.”

Wrapify continues to innovate its digital OOH offering for brands and agencies with improved data visualization, retargeting, and OOH attribution metrics that are accessible online — a first-of-its-kind for a moving OOH placement. In addition to the updated and streamlined performance, Wrapify’s brand partners now have access to a multitude of new capabilities including Attribution Reporting from OOH Exposure, Retargeted Reporting, OOH Media Measurement and Data Visualization, and SWARM — Wrapify’s day-of-event route mapping and proof of performance photo access.

“The key to selling ads to brands is proof it works,” said Wrapify co-founder and CEO James Heller. “Measuring and attributing OOH exposure should be as easy as measuring display or search. Our platform enables brands and agencies to measure campaigns by setting goals for online conversions, driving foot-traffic, or in-app activity. With our newest Dashboard updates to the platform, customizing your brand’s ROI for OOH is now possible.”

Featured Drivers Product Wrap Industry News

The gig-economy has spoken. What brands are winning?

by Jenny Gensch July 7, 2020

written by Jenny Gensch

Intro

2020 has brought many changes not just to businesses and the economy – but furthermore to so many people’s lifestyles and working routines. And in turn, to many companies’ budgets, priorities and activities.

So here’s what we have here – Wrapify sells OOH campaigns to brands – most of these professional ads appearing on the vehicles of everyday drivers in the gig economy, creating The Wrapify Driver Network nationwide in the US.

We surveyed our driver network of over 280,000 and asked them questions about their experiences, and what brands they would choose to drive and advertise for while they are making money doing so.

Here’s what they said:

If you could choose to always have your car wrapped in Wrapify’s professional advertisements for brands, would you?

What gig-economy platforms do you either currently participate in or plan to on a regular basis?

What brands do you most want to advertise for, if you could choose?

What types of gig-economy services are you most interested in?

In addition to our driver network, according to the OAAA (the OOH industry’s thought-leader):

A recent survey by the Out of Home Advertising Association of America (OAAA) conducted by OnDevice Research found that 62 percent of vacationers are planning a road trip, a whopping 72 percent increase from last summer.

The OAAA also says that people are starting to leave their homes, as well as making plans to very soon.

The top planned activities are:
– Time with family friends (36%)
– Dining out (35%)
– Visiting a beach/lake (34%)
– Shopping (30%)
– Recreational activities (28%)
– Sightseeing (27%)

Finishing out 2020 and into 2021, how is your brand prepared to reach these people with their marketing and advertising?

Wrapify solves for hyper-targeting with out-of-home advertising ads and turns them into high-converting retargeting ads with full attribution reporting.

Wrapify Launches Campaign Supporting Racial Equality and the San Diego NAACP: ‘Silence Is Not An Option’

by Jenny Gensch June 22, 2020

written by Jenny Gensch

Deploys PSA on OOH Static+ Rideshare Topper, Wrapify to Match Donations

San Diego, CA — June 22, 2020 — Wrapify, the performance-driven ad tech platform for brands powered by OOH and the gig economy, today announced a new campaign in support of equal civil rights and the San Diego NAACP chapter. With current events highlighting systemic racism around the country and calling for change, Wrapify hopes to use the OOH Static+ Rideshare Topper product as a means to promote the humanitarian message that black lives matter, with the first fleet of cars taking to San Diego’s streets on 18, June 2020.

As such, Wrapify will use its extensive network of gig economy drivers to feature the message “Silence Is Not An Option” in an effort to promote positive change. They will donate all campaign profits to the local San Diego NAACP chapter as well as send users from the physical retargeting ads to their site. Additionally, should brands join the campaign, Wrapify will also donate the profits from these additional Static+ Rideshare Toppers to spread wider awareness.

“In a season where the NAACP is asking everyone to be bolder than they’ve ever been to bring about change, Wrapify is showing leadership and getting the message out that change has to come and it starts with you,” said NAACP San Diego branch President Ms. Francine Maxwell.

Wrapify hopes to raise awareness of the current humanitarian crisis and recent deaths of black lives from police through the “Silence Is Not An Option” campaign, while supporting the local San Diego community. Wrapify’s Static+ Rideshare Topper is poised to hyper-target any region a brand or agency would choose, reaching nearly every neighborhood or desired city.

“Silence is compliance, and given recent and past events, it’s more important than ever to band together as people — and companies — to spread the right messages,” said co-founder and CEO James Heller. “Being socially responsible and socially active is imperative to our company values, and we hope it is for others as well during this time.”

Wrapify has already signed on its initial fleet of cars. To join the campaign and support racial equality , please visit wrapify.com or email equality@wrapify.com.

Delivery Drives Relief: Flatten the Curve, Get it Delivered

by Jenny Gensch March 24, 2020

written by Jenny Gensch

In an effort to further support the gig-economy during these unprecedented times, Wrapify is working with its brand partners to put even more cash into the pockets of Americans in need by launching the “Delivery Drives Relief” Campaign.

Rideshare use has dropped 70% since the onset of the social distancing measures related to COVID-19*. But many of these drivers have since transitioned to delivery. Leveraging delivery services like DoorDash, Grubhub and Uber Eats not only allows for social distancing, it keeps local restaurants, grocers and other local businesses open and able to pay their employees who depend on the income.

Wrapify is teaming up with its brand partners to launch an 8-week campaign on 1,900 gig-work/delivery vehicles nationwide, including some of the hardest-hit markets** such as Las Vegas, Savannah, GA, and Atlantic City, NJ, to name a few.

To ensure each brand partner will have an equal share of voice by participating in this campaign, Wrapify will rotate the brands through each of the 10 logo areas on these “Wrapified” vehicles.

All profits from the Delivery Drives Relief Campaign will go directly into the pockets of participating delivery drivers, in addition to the driver’s earnings that they would normally receive by driving with Wrapify –an estimated $2 million.

Brands have the opportunity to put their dollars to work in an effort to stimulate the American economy and more specifically, the working class, all while using social distancing measures to help “flatten the curve”.

Brands not only benefit from the Out-of-home (OOH) measurement and exposure, they also benefit from Wrapify’s retargeting capabilities to other digital channels including Connected TV (CTV), Mobile and Display retargeting.
