The digital age has transformed the way businesses and advertisers engage with their core customers. The technology for intimate consumer engagement has never been more evolved.
And brand marketing has never been more competitive.
Media retailers sell music, movies, tech, hardware, accessories, and all manner of accoutrements. When it comes to physical in-store marketing they know what they’re doing. They’re expert in facilitating engaging in-store customer connections.
But when it comes to utilizing digital technology and managing state-of-the-art digital advertising & sales campaigns that fully leverage their foot traffic - media retailers lack time, expertise, and scale to successfully execute these strategies.
At this same time, advertisers always look for innovative new ways to impactfully and accurately deliver their message directly to
their most preferred target audiences.

Ad copy consists of video or still images. Ads run for 15-30 seconds. Ads display twelve times per hour on random loops. That means a typical customer shopping for half an hour is exposed to each ad six times during the course of their shopping visit.
The longer customers spend in-store, according to Ipsos, the more likely they are to make a purchase. Media stores typically report some of the longest customer dwell times in retail.
Attracting eyes to the screen is an essential core competence. We run attractive ads and insert eye catching filler; and ads run randomly each segment to retain the element of surprise. Ads are designed to be viewed 5-20 feet away. All in the service of keeping consumers engaged.
Graphic arts and video editing are done in-house. We emphasize aesthetics. We lean toward culturally resonant themes and subtlety in brand ads. We want consumers to recall what they’ve seen and feel good while watching it. Beauty, emotion, and message.. all can be delivered with remarkable potency in 15-second servings.
Each display ad displayed on the screens shows up as a mirror-image button on the consumer’s mobile device inside the xprncmedia web app. These buttons link to advertisers’ preferred websites. For album and movie ads, xprncmedia also streams audio & video and discovers a trove of relevant data.
