A: Display ads act like digital billboards consumers see while online. They're primarily used as publicity for a given business, product, or event. When clickable, they increase traffic to websites thereby building awareness of a product, service, or event and converting leads to sales.

A: Consumers live both physical and digital lives. Businesses are growing and gaining market share by embracing multi-channel marketing. Examples of multi-channel pairing include direct mail (EDDM^®), email, social media, display ads, as well as television and radio. Using multi-channel marketing influences buying decisions by increasing awareness and demand, which can eventually result in a purchase decision.

A: In today's world, nearly every residence has access to the Internet. Therefore, most homes now have two addresses — a physical street address and a digital IP address. By targeting IP addresses, any business can serve up display ads to prospects in their targeted area while they're simply using the Internet. IP targeting delivers additional impressions in the form of banner ads as consumers browse their favorite online content. Our patent-pending IP algorithm determines the IP address based on the physical street address, which is then used for precise digital ad targeting at the IP/router level. This type of targeting is beneficial for advertisers because it incorporates offline date; i.e., registered voter lists, customer databases, modeled data and direct mail data.

A: Three. With our email program, three identical emails will be sent to valid email addresses, over a scheduled timeframe, to individuals within the routes you have selected for your EDDM^® campaign.

A:Let’s say your campaign has 5,000 email prospects. This number represents the actual number of prospects who will receive your email offer.
