Walmart's Smart Network reaches more than 150 million shoppers per week, but in order to stay relevant and maximize sales lift, the network needs to function as both a broadcasting and narrowcasting medium, geo-targeting anywhere from a single screen to 3,300 screens at a time and targeting ads by daypart and week-part as well. This presentation will explore the myriad uses and implications of this kind of hyper-targeting, delving into business case studies as well as the mechanics of programming using multiple target lists.
In this session, you will... 1. Understand why and how to balance broadcasting with narrow-casting in digital signage environments 2. Learn how to assemble targeting lists using closed-loop digital network data 3. Discover the relative benefits of targeting vs. optimization and how to incorporate both into digital networks
