Notas do 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
- ‘How’s Out-of-home’ focuses on the broad trends within the Out-of-home industry.
- Outdoor hits £213.2m in Q1 2013: 0.1% growth year on yearDigital up 21% year on yearThe Outdoor Media Centre today announces that outdoor revenues grew 0.1% year on year in the first quarter, to £213.2m (£213.0m in Q1, 2012). Although essentially flat, on the back of the Olympic year 2012, this marks the seventh quarter of consecutive growth in the outdoor medium.Revenues in the digital sector grew to £43.1m, up 21% year on year. Advertisers across many categories explored new ways to use digital advertising, and media owners continued to invest, transforming sites in the best locations to digital. Digital made up 20.2% of the total outdoor revenue in Q1, up from 16.7% in Q1, 2012.“We are pleased to see growth continuing following a long run of success all the way back to mid 2011. It’s very small growth, admittedly, but we are following an Olympic year and we are now running into some very tough comps,” says OMC’s chief executive Mike Baker. “We are realistic that it will be well-nigh impossible to match Q3 especially and we know that will also impact on the full year number. But the digital growth continues apace, with 21% growth to £43m in the quarter – a fifth of the total spend in outdoor. That’s where the most impressive growth story lies.” The much awaited Warc/Ad Association figures out in early May 2013 will confirm whether outdoor has passed the threshold of 10% share of display advertising – a long held goal for the medium and, if achieved, a huge result. The continued growth of outdoor confirms that advertisers see a convergent role for outdoor alongside mobile, online and social media.
- 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 Outdoor Media Centre today announces that outdoor revenues grew 9.5% year on year in 2012, to £970.1m for the full year 2012 (full year 2011 was £886.3m).
- 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.
- The new OCS5 Survey asks consumers what product categories they plan to purchase and which they buy more on impulse. It then delves deeper into the triggers for each product category as to what the key drivers of impulse purchases are ... Giving us a greater understanding of the decision making process across a wide range of categories So for example ...Pay Day is a key trigger for impulse purchases particularly in the categories of fashion and entertainmentMood is more important for impulse purchases for confectionary/snacksAnd Peer pressure/recommendations play a key role in impulse decisions when going to the cinema/theatreThis new OCS insight can also help planners be more defined with their target audiences for any given brief.So for example a confectionary brief might wish to target 15-34 who buy confectionary as a pick me up ....So using the new OCS Insight we can be far more defined when creating our target audiences to plan buyi.e. 15-34, regular confectionary purchasers, who purchase confectionary on impulse AND their mood is a key driver of this impulse purchase
- 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
- And of course we have Route, the OOH industry’s audience measurement system.Route, which launched on February 26, replacing Postar, is OOH’s revolutionary new audience measurement system enabling greater targeting across more environments than ever before. It incorporates the latest measurement technology and covers all major formats – delivering an industry currency which will allow OOH to be truly accountable in this increasingly multi-media, multi-platform world.
- The next two charts demonstrate how advanced the new Route system is compared to the old Postar system. From the audiences that can be measured, the scale of geographic locations, the measurement of dynamic frames and the diversity of formats and environments through to day-parts included, illumination facts and formats and location and attributes.

- ‘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. Today this is not the case as media owners are collectively working to improve the quality of their plant with massive investment into existing sites and also into the development of high quality digital investments.
- ‘Who’s buying’ provides an overview of who is spending what, where, when and why.

- ‘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.

- Stella Artois Cidre launches weather-activated ad campaignThis summer,Stella Artois Cidre, will for the first time launch an OOH campaign that delivers real-time, thermo-activated advertising based on the temperature in a specific location. Stella Artois Cidre has worked with Posterscope, and LIVEPOSTER, to build a bespoke scheduling system, from which the campaign will operate. The system, which is connected to DOOH ad spots across the country, automatically turns ad spots on and off based on the results of a real-time weather data plug-in. So, when the system registers a two-degree increase in temperature (above the national average), Stella Artois Cidre advertising content will be displayed on digital screens in that specific location. Equally, ads will not appear in in locations registering lower temperatures, or where it is raining, for example. This innovative OOH activity is part of a major advertising investment for Stella Artois Cidre across TV, cinema, outdoor and digital.

- Pepsi Like MachineTypically enthusiastic promoters stand at busy intersections and other high traffic areas handing out free samples, in hopes passersby buy the product. Instead of this usual formula, Pepsi partnered with TBWA Belgium on ‘The Like Machine’, a vending machine dispensing free Pepsi in exchange for a ‘like’ on Facebook. Initially, Pepsi Belgium rolled out this promotion at Beyoncé concerts in Antwerp.The concept is simple yet effective. Using a smartphone, enter likepepsi.com, then connect with your Facebook account, like the Pepsi Facebook page and get a free Pepsi. The vending machine also uses the phone’s location settings to make sure that only those in the vicinity receive a free sample for their ‘like’. Those without smartphones use the 42” built-in touchscreen to log into Facebook to receive a free drink. Once the sample was given, a timer ensured everyone was logged out of their accounts. This new method of sampling provides real-time feedback on who has liked, tasted and enjoyed the beverage.

- 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.
- By 2014, in a study by VC firm Kleiner Perkins, analyst Mary Meeker predicted that mobile browsing will exceed desktop browsing by 2014. Known as the “Queen of the Internet”, Meeker is acknowledged as the industry’s leading and most respected analyst. In the report, Meeker predicts smartphone and tablet shipments will surpass PC shipments for the first time in 2011. Additionally, Kleiner Perkins points to a convergence occurring where social, local and mobile come together through mobile devices and mobile apps. In the palm of one’s hand, these magical devices have GPS capabilities to make them local and a plethora of apps to make them social. As new social and location based apps come to the market, this will only fuel greater mobile internet usage

- 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.
- To understand the potential of NFC, a piece of research from Posterscope and Clear Channel reveals the applications, content and environments that consumers claim to be most valuable and relevant for NFC enabled poster interactions. It also looks at brand and advertiser product categories for which NFC-OOH experiences would be most appealing and current levels of consumer awareness and understanding. A video demonstrating the future potential formed part of the research project. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORkuWJcJpXoOther recent reports produced by Posterscope include ‘NFC News and Views’, Social Media, ‘Smartphones Social and Screen’s, etc, which all look into how OOH integrates with mobile, social and technologies.The convergent world presents an enormous range of opportunities for brands to derive even more value from the OOH medium. The Guide to Convergent OOH, located on slideshare, outlines some of the opportunities available and associated case studies.
- The Posterscope View: How OOH will evolve in 2013We always like to share our perspective on how the world of OOH is evolving out there, changing our thinking and opening up new opportunities for our advertisers, so we have looked at some of the key themes which we think will play out in the OOH ecosystem over the year ahead. We look at audience growth and how very soon we’ll be able to capture and quantify its movement in a more sophisticated way than ever before, we delve deeper into how the increasingly connected population is engaging and interacting with our medium thanks to a whole host of exciting technologies, propelling OOH towards a real-time future, and we explore the growing value of more immersive brand experiences for consumers whilst out and about. The report can be found on slideshare: http://www.slideshare.net/Posterscope/posterscope-predictions-v5

- Geography of Time (GoT) is a two part research project. A (quantative) survey of 3,500 respondents from 5 major GB conurbations to gain insight into city life. Secondly, a PDA diary which recorded 1,200 diary days of consumers’ activities. The PDA diary is similar to Touchpoints and analysing the two data sources creates some interesting insight. Also the data from both surveys support each other, adding confidence in the results. The time element of the survey (the PDA diary) was launched at the recent trojectory conference hosted by the IPA.
- With the aim of understanding our clients’ search and social strategies, to make OOH work harder, to create innovative solutions and more convergent campaigns”
- Public choose works for world’s biggest exhibition showcasing great British art on poster sites across the UKThe UK will become the world’s largest art gallery when a unique exhibition, Art Everywhere, will transform thousands of poster sites and billboards into iconic artworks from the national collection, to be launched on 8 August 2013.Art Everywhere is a collaborative project between Richard Reed, co-founder of Innocent Drinks, the Art Fund, Tate, and the poster industry. The public are invited to help curate the exhibitionby selecting their favourite British artworks from a shortlist published from 24 June 2013 on arteverywhere.org.uk. For one week they can choose their favourite works by ‘liking’ them and sharing them through Facebook. Reproductions of the most popular works – the top 50 - will be shown in the exhibition on billboard sites across the country for two weeks from 10th – 25th August.Members of the public can also become patrons of the exhibition through a ‘crowdfunding’ initiative accessed through the project website. Donations of £3 will buy the paper and printing for one poster site and higher-level donations of £15 or more will be able to choose limited edition rewards by British artist Bob and Roberta Smith.The project is supported by many leading artists including Damien Hirst.Richard Reed, co-founder of Innocent Drinks initiated the idea for Art Everywhere. His passion for the arts led to the idea of having a public celebration across Britain. Working with Posterscope and Vizeum, the poster industry has donated the thousands of sites; media owners involved include Clearchannel, CBS Outdoor and JC Decaux..
- CBS Outdoor brightens up the first 'Tidal Flow Motorway' in Birmingham CBS Outdoor UK has unveiled a digital advertising site on the Aston Expressway, just half a mile from Birmingham City Centre. The stretch of road already boasts the country's first ever 'Tidal Flow Motorway' (a seven lane motorway). The main arterial route into the city centre now houses The Birmingham Express, which is comprised of two high definition LED screens in portrait format measuring 5,120mm wide and 7,168mm high, capable of delivering multiple messages, time sensitive live feeds and real time count downs. Facing opposite directions, one screen is in clear view of inbound traffic, the other outbound. Both have the ability to show different advertisements at any one time, allowing for bespoke content, targeted directly at each traffic flow. Their elevated positions ensure good visibility.
- London Underground celebrates 150th anniversary with five tube maps past, present and future made of LEGOTo celebrate the 150th anniversary of the London Underground LEGO has recreated five Tube maps to show how the network has changed and evolved over time.Unveiled at King’s Cross this morning the special maps created by Duncan Titmarsh, the UK’s only certified LEGO professional, will be on display throughout the summer at South Kensington, Piccadilly Circus, Green Park, Stratford and King’s Cross stations.The tube maps, each made from more than 1,000 bricks, begin with a map of the 1927 underground system at South Kensington, followed by Harry Beck’s 1933 map at Piccadilly Circus, a 1968 version at Green Park, and the current 2013 tube map displayed at Stratford.The maps go all the way to 2020 with a future imagining of the network at King’s Cross St Pancras, and the maps will go on display at the London Transport Museum later in the year.
- London taxis get new digital ad spaceBrands looking to target consumers in London will soon be able to place ads on digital panels installed on the tops of the city's iconic black cabs.Transport for London, the city's transit authority, has approved a standard for roof-mounted digital advertising and Brightmove Media, an innovator in the sector, is planning to be first to market with its TaxiCast product."We go live in two weeks time with 25 taxis in London," Piers Mummery, Brightmove's chief executive, told the Wall Street Journal, adding that equipment was being fitted and he already had committed advertisers.The roof-mounted panels are centrally controlled to offer advertisers geo-location and time-targeted digital advertising on the streets of London."Digital advertising on taxi roofs not only changes the London skyline, but also offers advertisers and brands tailored advertising at street level," said Mummery.The twin 400×48 resolution LED displays are Internet-enabled via the 3G network, while sensors monitor location, time, temperature and humidity, allowing advertising to be controlled dynamically.That means, for example, that ads for ice cream could be launched when the temperature reached a certain level, or ads for shops could be triggered when a taxi drives past them.A rival offering from Eyetease Media, iTaxitop, is expected later this summer, which is similar in most respects to that of Brightmove, although it will have a slightly larger LCD display.
- Clear Channel Outdoor to challenge and inspire advertising community at Cannes 2013 with creation of world’s first hand-painted micrography billboard made from tweetsClear Channel Outdoor (CCO) launched a social media campaign on 16th June at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, designed to ignite conversation and debate about realising creative potential, which led to the live creation of the world’s first hand-painted micrography billboard, with the mural generated entirely from tweets.#canvas for creativity is a Twitter-based marketing programme designed by Clear Channel Outdoor (@ccoutdoor) that sought to spark debate and share the best in creative thought leadership, against the backdrop of a global, real-time and increasingly digitally-connected world. Clear Channel Outdoor hosted and contributed to the conversation, offering its perspective on each topical discussion.In addition, every day throughout the Cannes Lions festival CCO invited two key industry influencers to lead a debate about a creative topic using their own Twitter feeds, marking the tweet with #canvas. Influencers signed up to the programme include Mark Cridge, founder of digital and creative agency Glue. The best tweets from each day’s #canvas debate were collated and used to create a live, hand painted mural, located in the grounds of Le Grand Hotel in Cannes. Using the artistic form of micrography (the technique of using text to form an image when viewed at a distance, creating an interplay between the text and image), three world class artists spent up to eight hours a day hand-painting the best comments, perspectives, observations and quotes on to the giant 16m x 4m canvas, with the final mural image emerging throughout the festival week.The 5 creative topics for debate were:Sunday 16 June: Who owns the creative agenda?Monday 17 June: Is creativity an art or science?Tuesday 19 June: Is technology redefining creativity?Wednesday 20 June: Has globalisation diluted creativity?Thursday 21 June: Should creativity be a bigger force for social good?Social media visualisations of the #canvas Twitter content were streamed on CCO’s website, digital screens at the festival, and a high-resolution projection on to a separate 18m x 5m canvas located on the roof of the Le Grand Hotel, Cannes. The projection canvas was built specifically for the festival and sat at the highest spot on the Croisette, a spot never before used for advertising or media at Cannes Lions.After the giant artwork is completed, a searchable gigapixel photo of the final image will be featured on CCO’s website, allowing ultra-close up visual inspection, and the ability to find tweets using individual Twitter handles.
- Clear Channel UK launches Ngen – the voice of a generationClear Channel UKhas announced the launch of Ngen - a unique audience insight community.Ngen allows Clear Channel and their brand partners to participate in a hosted, two-way dialogue with up to 400 engaged and connected 18-34 year olds from eight major UK cities. Unlike conventional audience panels, Ngen is built on continuous conversations with a passionate and targeted audience who love their cities. The community will cover a wide range of topics close to the hearts of its participants, giving Clear Channel and their brand partners an unparalleled understanding of this influential audience.The Ngen participants are from a tech-savvy generation who are used to documenting their lives through social media and are happy to interact online. Ngen builds on the community’s familiarity with social media to gain a deep insight into who they are, where they go and what they think about the latest hot topics.Starting with Microsoft on 17th June, a series of brand partners will have one week of exclusive access to the community. At launch, Channel 5, Dixons Store Group, H&M, Microsoft and Paramount are among the leading brands that will partner with Clear Channel. The community is capped at 400 participants to ensure effective dialogue between Clear Channel, brand partners and community members and to enable detailed qualitative research to take place. Run in collaboration with Crowd DNA & Trajectory Partnership, Ngen runs for an initial 18 weeks, alongside two waves of quantitative online research in summer and autumn 2013.A dedicated website which can be accessed by Clear Channel and their partners will house insights gained from the research including photography, video, quotes, survey results, analysis and third party literature.A full report will be released in early 2014 capturing all aspects of the project.

- Using Twitter and outdoor in tandemThe growth of mobile has been monumental and for many people has become the main route onto the internet rather than the desktop PC. With the continual rise of mobility we are starting to see how Twitter and Out of Home advertising could come together as perfect bedfellows.Job hopeful Adam Pacitti bought one billboard with his last £500 outside Kilburn station in London. In just two days it went global. 30,000 people looked at his CV on YouTube and he gained over 10,000 followers on Twitter with 13,500 re-tweets for the image of his billboard.The success was down to the human interest that created a genuine reason to go past the poster into the online extension of that communication, namely employadam.com, then quickly logging on to Twitter trending to discuss that natural interest. With no professional media training, Adam went and bought a poster because to him that was the most visible form of communication in his community offering a chance to start the process. To quote Adam himself “it wasn’t as simple as renting a billboard and I actually spent several months developing a multi-platform viral advertising campaign with full social media integration. People liked the billboard, mostly.”For those of you who’ve read up on Adam this wasn’t his first global media stunt, but for the millions who ended up following this amazing story it started with a poster, with a simple message armed with a call to action.We already know Outdoor and mobile search complement each other. Although there’s research from the Outdoor Media Centre showing Outdoor is more effective at delivering search than any other medium, it’s obvious really; when you see something interesting you naturally end up searching it.With no such thing as dead time, increasing numbers of us are always switched on, taking every opportunity to pull out our phones and scan our personalised story board. The personalisation of this is key; users allow friends and brands to continually feed them with information and content deemed to be relevant and valuable to their lives. Given the propensity to search on mobile devices when Out of Home and the role Outdoor advertising plays in driving this, all the signs are that both together have the potential to be hugely powerful, but with a cautionary note. The answer is not to whack a Twitter logo on a poster and hope for the best. It’s not going to work if the creative doesn’t excite and invite the consumer to take part. If the brand wants consumers to engage, they need to do more by getting smarter with the creative.When brands historically put a phone number on a poster, the measure of a poster’s success was how many people phoned the number; anyone in posters will tell you we struggled to prove that worked and could yield results . The challenge in driving that connection and action comes back to creativity. What do we want or expect the consumer to do; is the creative, message, call to action appropriate in delivering that and are we measuring the most relevant outcomes?There is now a lot of activity going on Twitter and Facebook and if that’s where you want to take your customers then more should be done to get that message clearly across rather than just including a logo almost as an afterthought and hoping that’s one of the things that might happen.Shouldn’t communication across outdoor and Twitter start to support a brand’s activity in a more obvious way than it currently does? Not every brand can capture imaginations in the same way Adam Pacitti did, but some can.Posters generate emotion and subliminally start to influence consumer’s perceptions of products. The rise and rise of social media means brands can start joining up poster communication with something that then happens on Twitter.The more brands can enhance our lives, the more we want them to be part of our lives. In this respect brands need to do more with outdoor in tandem with social because it plays perfectly into the hands of what a poster does, that is to build brands.

- CBS Corp to sell CBS Outdoor internationalCBS Corp said it would pursue a "divestiture" of its outdoor business in Europe and Asia, and would convert its outdoor arm in the Americas into a "real estate investment trust" (REIT).It is believed there is no specific timeline for the sale and it is understood that CBS Corp will involve trade and other buyers in the process.There has been speculation that CBS Corp would sell its outdoor business for some time, and it was widely believed that the problems the UK business had with the London Underground (LU) contract were preventing a sale.
