Consumers set up a blockbuster holiday season at the Box Office
As cities reopen and consumers are once again out and about, spend on digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising shows no sign of stopping its momentum.
In fact, the DPAA estimates that 81% of advertisers will recommend Digital Out of Home in their media plans in the next twelve months1. To help media buyers and sellers get ahead of the curve, Comscore has introduced 20 new DOOH venue category segments to Plan Metrix Mobile, available now. This update is transformative for the DOOH space as it adds the ability to connect consumers' DOOH media engagement in public venues such as shopping malls and gyms, with their interest, attitudes and digital media consumption. These new segments will enable advertisers to build data-driven media plans that find incremental reach beyond digital and TV platforms, and to reinforce their digital campaigns.
In this blog post, we reveal how to use Comscore Plan Metrix DOOH targets to find incremental reach opportunities and achieve campaign metrics with high-value segments such as business decision makers and auto intenders.

Drive Campaign Metrics with High-Value SegmentsThe DOOH targets in Plan Metrix can help advertisers and their agencies find creative ways to target valuable audiences such as business decision-makers and automotive intenders. For example, Comscore data reveals that only 3.3% of the U.S. population age 18 or older are c-level executives, making this a niche target. However, this segment over-indexes at 142 versus the general population by likelihood to have visited an office building in the past 30 days, marking offices as attractive advertising venues.
