Notas del editor
- The Real World is Posterscope’s out-of-home media landscape document that captures the highlights of the year, focuses on current areas of interest, and offers a perspective on what’s coming up.The presentation is updated every month although not all the content will change, for example, OOH revenue figures are released on a quarterly basis. The main areas updated monthly are ‘who’s buying’, ‘stuff we like’ and ‘what’s coming up’. For ‘stuff we like’ and what’s coming up’ new content will be added to the existing content for anyone not visiting on a monthly basis. The remainder of the document will be updated as and when relevant.
- ‘What just happened’ takes a retrospective look at the out-of-home market across 2011 and 2012 to date as well as
- ‘How’s Out-of-home’ focuses on the broad trends within the Out-of-home industry.
- The Outdoor Media Centre announced that outdoor revenues grew 25.4% year on year in Quarter 3 to £268.9m (£214.4m in 2011). This makes Q3, 2012 the largest quarter in UK history, beating the previous high of Q4, 2006 by some £12m. The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games were the biggest contributor to that growth, with London-based media owners benefitting in particular. All major environments (transport, roadside, retail and leisure) were significantly up year on year. Revenues in the digital sector grew 69.9% to £52m as advertisers found new ways to use digital advertising, and media owners continued to invest, transforming sites in the best locations to digital. Digital made up 19% of the total revenue this quarter, another record. All the Olympic sponsors enjoyed a strong presence at the Games. McDonalds, Visa, Coca-Cola, Samsung, Panasonic, UPS, EDF Energy, Heineken, BP, BT, BA, Cadbury, Adidas, Lloyds, Procter & Gamble, BMW, GE, Atos, Deloitte, Dow, Glaxosmithkline and Holiday Inn all went with powerful outdoor creative executions during the Games, as did Nike and other sports-related clients. Research from YouGov showed that the advertising during the Games was highly visible. 62% of Games visitors remembered seeing outdoor ads, 56% said that outdoor was a good medium for advertisers to link to large events, and 52% agreed that the outdoor advertisements added colour and vibrancy to London. Voxpops undertaken on the street by the Outdoor Media Centre showed a high level of brand recall and recognition. “It’s been a quite exceptional quarter” says OMC’s chief exec Mike Baker. “Outdoor is the best medium for visual branding and advertisers have embraced that idea in spades. The industry has never seen so many dominations, wraps and spectaculars. Because all advertisers linked their creative to the Games, it made a continuous colourful canvas which really unified London and brought the city to life. The Olympics was the greatest show on earth and outdoor did it proud. Now the hard work begins as we look to sustain the growth.” Around a fifth of London outdoor sites were related to the Games.
- Over the last decade we have seen the medium transformed by a surge in digital OOH, innovation and creativity alongside the consolidation of media owners and a continuous stream of investment. This rapid evolution has kept the OOH landscape fresh, new and exciting thus resulting in growth that surpasses all other media with the exception of digital.
- OOH is also one of the only media that continues to see audiences grow year after year as we spend more time out of our homes and do different things with our time. The Taking Part survey has run since 2005 and is the key evidence source for DCMS (The Department for Culture, Media and Sport). It is a continuous face to face household survey of adults aged 16 and over in England and children aged 5-15 years old. This latest releases presents rolling estimates incorporating data from the fourth quarter of year seven of the survey.The figures detail increase in 2011/12 versus 2006/2007
- Days out or visits to places (68.3% in 2011/12 versus 58.4% in 2006/2007)
- Visits to theatre (46.0% in 2011/12 versus 37.5% in 2006/2007)
- Eat out at restaurants (73.5% in 2011/12 versus 61.8% in 2006/2007)
- Visit museums/galleries (37.2% in 2011/12 versus 27.2% in 2006/2007)
- Play sport/exercise(55.4% in 2011/12 versus 50.1% in 2006/2007)
- Go to a cinema (53.8% in 2011/12 versus 42.3% in 2006)
- Between 1995/97 and 2010, the average distance travelled by bus in London has nearly doubled (+90%) to 81 miles per person per year, while the average distance travelled by other local buses is now similar to its 1995/97 level at 226 miles per person per year. Rail travel (surface rail and London underground) accounted for 9% of all distance travelled in 2010. The average number of trips and distance travelled by surface rail has increased overall between 1995/97 and 2010, by 61% and 58% respectively. The latest year shows a rise in surface rail travel, reversing the downward trend of recent years. Trips by London underground increased by 12% between 1995/97 and 2010, while the average distance travelled has increased by 23%.
- And the environment is changing to meet our demands.......more pubs, more gyms, coffee shops etc....Overlay this with the fact that the world is now surrounded with technology and emerging new medias, it is plain to see that the last 50 years has seen an incredible amount of change. As a result OOH has had to evolve and adapt to stay alive and it is the sheer fact that OOH is stitched into the very fabric of our world that has allowed the medium to quickly embrace this transition in offering increased opportunities and ways to talk to these audiences.....Today OOH is reacting to the surge in technologies by providing a perfect partnership to leverage multimedia conversations.
- The future for OOH is bright….. With 2012 predicted to show revenue increase of around 7% with the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games the biggest contributor to that growth, with London-based media owners benefitting in particular. All major environments (transport, roadside, retail and leisure) were significantly up year on year.
- Now in its 4th generation....which includes the following additions...The e.diary- Active purchasing each half hour. They also ask the respondent to tell themhow much they have spent if they have bought something. This allows them to find out more about purchasing behaviour in general. Where people are when they are buying – how much of it happens online or when they are out and about. Whether major purchases at the point of sale are made when people are with others or when they are alone. And of course to enable them to understand respondent’s media consumption just prior to actual purchase. -At the end of the half hour e.diary questions a screen of 12 emoticons have been added which respondents are asked to click on to reflect their mood state. The Self Completion Questionnaire: - More questions have been added on social networking and use of social media. - The technology section has been revised to reflect the ever changing technology market and questions about use of tablets and e books have been introduced.-In the television section respondents are asked about the platforms they use to watch content including ipads, internet connected televisions and 3D TV sets. -There are also new questions relating to product placement on television for the first time. And the VOD questions have been completely revised and expanded. - For radio respondents are now asked about radio listening via an app with frequency levels. -For newspapers and magazines respondents are now asked about readership via electronic devices for the first time, by title. - The outdoor section has been revised to include more questions about digital screens. - The gaming section has more questions relating to games played on the internet rather than just hand held devices. - The internet section has been radically revised and now includes many more frequency questions in terms of both sites used, activities on the internet and location of use.
- Through to Posterscope’s proprietary consumer survey OCS is the UK’s only OOH consumer survey, based on a representative sample size of 11,000 adults, it focuses on their OOH activities, their attitudes towards and opinions of advertising in different environments, and most importantly their typical moods and mindsets in different environments. Available audiences include all the standard demographic groups plus detailed audience segmentation (matching client specific audiences), category enthusiasts, WOM influentials and social and mobile audiences. Typical areas of analysis include weight of media consumption, travel behaviour, thoughts when travelling, OOH environmental effectiveness, OOH formats noticed, intention to purchase, actions taken in response to OOH advertising, etc.
- Focussing on the McKinsey Journey which demonstrates how the consumer decision making process works and how OCS fits into the processUsing the Insight from OCS in conjunction with other research sources we can see the role that OOH can play at each stage ... Awareness & getting on the consideration list – Demonstratehow OOH drives awareness ... (“OOH being Known & Liked” )Active Evaluation – Consumers gather information to help make decisions – Demonstrate how “OOH is Generating Search”Active Evaluation – Key to reach consumers at right time/place/location – OCS has so much insight on Moods/OOH Channel Selection as well as Insight into how decisions are made both rationally/emotionallyMoment of Purchase – OCS has questions regarding formats noticed when shopping and Media owners often provide EPOS case studiesPost Purchase Experience - Vitally important for brand loyalty, reassuring consumer they have made the right choice etc. There is not a surplus of results available in this area however we do have lots of research from OCS on how OOH can generate earned media as well as lots of other Information.
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ii2xy9VaDA4To even being able to measure real-time sentiment.As part of the Olympic celebrations, EDF created a spectacular nightly lightshow on the London Eye, based on the mood of the nation. An algorithm tracked all positive and negative Olympic tweets from the 10 million UK users to give a positivity percentage, which is translated into illumination on the London icon. Visitors could participate in this interactive campaign through digital and social media activity.
- And the real-time city is now real! The digital revolution has layered a vast system of cameras, communication devices, microcontrollers and sensors over our environment, enabling entirely new ways to imagine, monitor, and understand our cities. These systems have a value that goes beyond their original purpose: the digital exhaust of cellular networks reveals social and economic patterns, tracking systems highlight global material flows, and digitally managed transportation fleets address a city's mobility. Taken together, the impact of digital networks on cities will be as significant as any past human undertaking.LIVE Singapore!, an ongoing initiative by the SENSEable City Lab at MIT, closes the feedback loop between people moving in the city and the digital data generated by their actions. The project's platform allows for the collection and combination of multiple data streams and provides access to data through dynamic visualizations that offer new insights into Singapore's urban dynamics.LIVE Singapore! provides people with access to a range of useful real-time information about their city by developing an open platform for the collection, elaboration and distribution of real-time data that reflect urban activity. Giving people visual and tangible access to real-time information about their city enables them to take their decisions more in sync with their environment, with what is actually happening around them.Check out the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aEPkyOBtRo
- The new highly anticipated out-of-home audience data will be launched by POSTAR on the 26th February 2013. The research will cover all outdoor environments and has been developed from scratch, with an investment of 19 million over six years by the industry.To prepare the OOH industry a beta version of the data has been made available to the subscribers to familiarise themselves with the data, train staff and update systems.The final data covering road, tube bus and rail will be available from 26th February at which point the industry can trade using the data. POSTAR will continue to launch iterations in regular quarterly intervals. Data for retail and airport environments will also follow as part of the planned expansion of the service.The new POSTAR study will provide an entirely new currency based on a detailed gauge of the population’s movement, which uses cutting edge technology. A sample of 23,000 people provide the bedrock of travel data, which is then mapped onto a bespoke network of the country’s pathways.The study has been designed to include all possible outdoor environments, the effect of illumination, on audience figures, and the effect of an advert being digital. This is a huge step forward from the existing currency, though historical eye tracking research from Birkbeck College, University of London is retained and expanded. The change sees a rise of inventory from 120,000 sites (in POSTAR99) to 360,000, with more to be added.James Whitmore, POSTAR’s MD, said “The study brings together several sets of data. Combined it is one of the biggest datasets of its kind with over 160 million records – providing an enormous enlargements of the current understanding of OOH audiences. As such, it has been a time-consuming, very detailed undertaking. We are in a position to launch this rich data in February next year and now need to prepare the industry in an ordered and measured way”.Annie Rickard, CEO, Posterscope, said “it is difficult not be impressed by the scale of the new Postar both on coverage of OOH environments and formats but also what this means to advertisers – real inclusivity in the measurement of their campaigns. From the specialists perspective the new data sets allow us to look at the medium in terms of planning and buying by audience delivery which will lead to greater accountability with other communication channels”.
- ‘Who’s Selling’ briefly talks about the OOH media owners and their plant.
- There was a major shake up amongst the media owners in 2009 when Titan Outdoor fell into administration and their plant was taken over by JCDecaux (rail and POS) and Primesight (large format roadside) altering the sales dynamics of the medium. Since then SOV has remained relatively static.
- With change came a renewed sense of focus and media owners are continuing to enhance the overall OOH proposition by reviewing their sales portfolio. Previously, when one media owner would relinquish a site/piece of land, another would quickly buy it up and erect a panel.

- ‘How's digital’ provides a broad overview of the digital market.
- You may find it quite surprising that it is the UK and not Asia that is the global leader of the digital OOH market. They do in fact have 35% of all worldwide screens but their government has limited their ability to be networked so it is difficult to plan, buy and facilitate a campaign on anything other than a site by site basis. This is not the case in the UK as the majority of screens are networked, making this market one of the most sophisticated in the world and allowing clients the opportunity to capitalise on the benefit of digital Out-of-home – planning by day part, location, audience, environment and mindset to mention a few. This means that, for example, it is now possible for a client to advertise ice creams in city centres on days when the temperatures reach over 25c!Number of mainstream OOH advertising screens Worldwide : c.2,500,000% of located in Asia : c.35%% located in USA & Canada : over 50%% located in UK : c.8%
- Digital still remains the success story in OOH and as new technologies continue to be developed we predict that the market will continue to increase. Not only because digital quickens the pace of the message, offers added dynamism and relevance for the advertiser but also because media owners are able transform their plants and reduce overheads.
- By its very nature, the major revenue streams remain in the roadside, rail and the London underground arenas as they appeal to broadcast audiences. Their counterparts offer unique, targeted solutions so will of course have a degree of capped income.
- London is the commercial centre of digital media as the majority of roadside, rail and London undergroundformats are situated in thecapital. However, it is testament to the changing landscape that well over a 1/3of impacts are now delivered outside of London and we urge you to consider them when being briefed.
- There is no industry data that measures digital spend by advertiser. However these are the top spending Posterscope digital advertisers (Jan-Nov)1. Channel 42.Camelot3.British Telecommunications4.Sony Ericsson5.MMO26.BMW7.InBev8.20th Century Fox9.Columbia Tristar10.Panasonic UK

In order to celebrate this, and to raise awareness of the coverage, OMD and Posterscope planned a 2 phase Out of Home campaign to run during the 2012 games.The first phase of the campaign launched on the 6th of August amidst the Olympic euphoria and enthusiasm that was sweeping the Country, and consisted of 4 weeks of National 48 sheets, 96 sheets and Underground XTPs. The creative for the first 2 weeks carried the strap line “Thanks for the warm up”The second phase of the campaign started on the 29th of August, just as the Paralympics events were starting. This phase again included roadside and rail static formats, but also utilised digital formats for 11 days on Rail and the London Underground.The unprecedented success of Team GB meant that the interest in the Paralympics and British Paralympics team were extremely high. To keep commuters up to date with the events of the games, Posterscope and The Cloud and Compass worked in conjunction with CBS and JCDecaux, to develop a platform that would deliver live news, updateable games results and medal tables to XTP screens on the London Underground and Transvision screens on Rail Concourses across the Country.The campaign gained worldwide fame when the posters were referenced by both David Cameron and Boris Johnson in their Opening Ceremony speeches to sum up what the Paralympic games meant to them.

- This fascinating project involved Google partnering with Coca-Cola and Art Director Harvey Gabor, to re-imagine his iconic 70’s “Hilltop” commercial for today’s digital age. The ‘I’d like to buy the world a Coke’ was turned into a reality using Google’s display advertising platform and specially-developed vending machines.

- Google voice search campaign won the Media Lions Grand PrixBelow is an extract from the award entry (submitted by MGOMD) for the Google Voice search campaign planned and bought by Posterscope and MGOMD.By taking a key strength of digital – hyper relevant context - and marrying it with the scale and ubiquity of outdoor we did something that had never been done before: a broadcast outdoor campaign where every creative execution was relevant to the poster site that it ran on. We zoomed in on every available individual poster site in London, and using Google maps plotted the interesting institutions in the immediate environs. The resultant database became the creative brief. As such, the precise media context explicitly informed the creative execution. Posters in the Square Mile ran “foot-see wun-hun-dred”. Sites outside stadia carried “ley-tistskohrz”. Sites at Baker Street carried “Shur-lokHoemz” Difficult to pronounce stations carried the phonetic spelling as the copy …in total 150 pieces of bespoke pieces of copy across ten different poster formats, amounting to the most complex outdoor campaign ever in the UK.

The aroma was developed over three months in collaboration with a specialist scent lab to accurately match the warming scent of McCain Ready Baked Jackets. In a media first, the bus shelters will also dispense money off coupons, redeemable across multiple and independent retailers, to make it easier for consumers to trial McCain’s latest product.

- All macro trends but all are prevalent and pertinent to OOHWhether they apply to consumer behaviour or brands or mediaAll prompt us to re-consider the way we plan and the way we position OOH within the broader landscape...
- The world is being transformed by technology, changing how people behave, especially when out-of-home…This is evidenced by the way we are having to re-define OOHTraditionally positioned as posters and screens that you can put ads on. Maybe a bit of experiential too.Today’s OOH media infrastructure looks very different...It’s all kinds of bespoke placements, exhibition spaces, client owned inventory and BTL retail comms.Plus the technology that consumers use when they are out and about - in principle, a laptop can be just as OOH as a posterThere’s a whole range of things that can be layered on top of straight advertising;Services (search, public utility content on screens)Experiential conceptsPlatforms (Facebook, twitter)Content (YouTube, DOOH ‘programming’)Commerce (virtual store posters, downloadable vouchers)Games (on mobile, DOOH or both together)So what we have here is very much a bought, owned and earned OOH ecosystem of media, technology, content and experience, with lots of interconnected and interdependent partsWhat’s interesting about the OOH ecosystem is that it overlaps with other major globalecosystems e.g.;Google (video – YouTube, search, mobile display, Gmail, Google+)Facebook (website, mobile app/site, f-commerce)apple (i-phone, i-Pad, i-tunes, i-ads)Amazon (app, website, affiliate)But unlike them, the OOH ecosystem isn’t dominated by any large multi-disciplinary multi-nationalsPosterscope aims to help bring a lot of this together.

- A new report from Juniper Research has found that the NFC retail payments market will exceed $180 billion globally by 2017, more than a seven-fold increase over 2012. The leading regions of North America, Western Europe and Far East & China will contribute 90% of this market value as smartphones with NFC payment technology become standard. Technology & Ecosystem DevelopmentsThe report found that 2011 was a watershed year for NFC payments. Major technology infrastructure standards were finalised, many mobile network operators committed to the market and NFC payment pilots from both mobile operators and financial institutions transitioned to commercial service. Above all, NFC-enabled smartphone models were announced by almost all handset manufacturers and Google ignited the market by launching its wallet in the US.NFC enabled devices allows the user to open an app, go to a website to view content, download vouchers, make a purchase, register facebook likes or check in at a location, simply by holding an NFC-enabled mobile to a poster site or payment point. Your phone effectively replaces your wallet so if you see something you like on a poster you can click and buy it there and then.

- CBS Outdoor UK revealed a challenge across the commuter hubs of London this month– asking Londoners to ‘Look for Longer’. Through a poster with a selection of cryptic, visual clues revealing a total of 75 tube stations across the network, ‘Look for Longer’ will challenge commuters’ lateral thinking as well as testing their knowledge of the city’s tube network. The campaign used traditional outdoor advertising and Virgin Media Wi-Fi on the London Underground to engage with consumers whilst they are waiting on platforms. Over four weeks, large posters featuring the game appeared at over 30 tube stations across London including key hubs such as Canary Wharf, Euston and Oxford Circus. Commuters were directed to a micro-site where they were able to submit answers for the chance to win a selection of prizes. They were also able to ask for help using the Twitter hashtag #lookforlonger.Simon Harrington, Marketing Director at CBS Outdoor UK comments: "We wanted to create a campaign that would generate curiosity, intrigue, and interaction. The three minute dwell time on platforms, coupled with Wi-Fi connectivity not only provides the perfect environment for advertisers to reach a highly responsive audience, but it also offers extended engagement – that is to say the audience do something as a result of seeing it, be that playing the game, or sharing it with friends through social media. All our research shows that meaningful interaction leads to positive brand affinity" CBS and BlipparThe second phase of the campaign saw the creative brought to life using augmented reality on digital screens at Westfield. CBS Outdoor UK joined forces with Blippar, the mobile visual discovery platform, to bring the campaign to life on the iconic 6m x1.7m ‘North Star’ digital LED screen at Westfield Stratford City through innovative image recognition and augmented reality technology.The campaign is now set to feature an interactive mobile element in which visitors to Europe’s largest mall, Westfield Stratford City, can download the free Blippar app and hold their smartphones up to ‘blipp’ the poster, which will then appear to come to life through their device. The technology will let Westfield Stratford’s 3.3 million monthly visitors interact with and navigate their way around the poster and find 10 further bonus clues to help them correctly identify all 75 stations. Blippar then directs people to the ‘Look for Longer’ website to enter their answers and allows them to connect with the substantial online social community that has formed since the campaign launched. Nearly 5,000 tweets have used the hashtag #lookforlonger since it launched, with participants sharing clues to help each other win prizes.Simon Harrington, Marketing Director at CBS Outdoor UK comments: “The high footfall and dwell time at Westfield provide the perfect opportunity to bring the campaign to life using augmented reality. Working with Blippar, we can take the campaign to the next level, generating increased participation and social conversation, thereby offering extended engagement with tech savvy urban shoppers. This campaign demonstrates how advertisers can use technology to enhance a high impact creative to generate a deeper level of interaction - that is to say the audience do something as a result of seeing it, be that playing the game, or sharing it with friends through social media. All our research shows that meaningful interaction leads to positive brand affinity”.Westfield Stratford City is the first venue to feature the blippable poster, with roll-out planned for Westfield London before the end of October. Participants have until 11 November to enter their answers via the micro-site at http://www.lookforlonger.com.
