Geomarketing
Identify potential, localize and target customers
Geomarketing thrives on precise data and analyses “on demand”. Opportunities and risks of strategic decisions can be realistically assessed, alternatively calculated and visualized with geomarketing in many areas. Use this information to get in touch with the right target groups!
Cartography
The distribution area of an advertising medium is displayed on a map. The search for advertising media is based on radius, zip code or interests. After booking, the system visualizes optimized distribution and playout areas as well as locations in regional map sections.
Target group management
We use a simple traffic light system to show the market potential in the selected distribution area. Socio-demographic data such as net household income, age and marital status can be taken into account, as can urban planning data, e.g. the settlement structure. You can also integrate your own data to obtain an even more precise target group analysis that matches the products or offers.
Media planning
Completeness, flexibility and individual discounting
Our media planning takes into account all media, including specific local publications such as club member magazines, to ensure comprehensive local communication. Individual and location-dependent discounts as well as discount scales are integrated as soon as they are available.
If costs change between planning and booking, we adjust them accordingly. The media planning tool can be used independently and, alongside the marketing management tool, is one of the most popular stand-alone systems, especially for media agencies.
