It’s critical for marketers to know if their campaigns are influencing behavior in response to an ad. But to really know if a campaign actually works, consumer response must be compared with those who hadn’t been exposed to the ad. This new study demonstrates the dramatic power of “ghost bidding” in revealing true campaign effectiveness. A large U.S.-based apparel company ran an extended ad campaign to a targeted audience. The difference? The company used demand-side platform technology to simultaneously expose and exclude identical user groups from viewing the ad. This A/B study used “ghost bidding”—withdrawing bids from the excluded group at the last moment—to plot the true effectiveness of display, video and audio ads, and demonstrated a powerful validation of marketing effectiveness.

What does it take to get attention with DOOH advertising? Advertising outdoors should be simple. People walk around the streets with their eyes open. If you put something in front of them, they’ll probably see it – or at least see enough of it to know not to bump into it. The trouble is, unless whatever is in front of them is worth seeing – eye-catching, engaging, and memorable – thirty seconds later, they have no recollection of what they saw. One day later, they probably don’t even remember being on that street.
