Research paper

Less is more: An investigation into how different levels of localisation in out-of-home creative drive sales

Abstract

Digital communications are becoming increasingly personalised. Numerous case studies demonstrate that the personalisation of digital communications drives sales. The majority of these case studies look at both one-to-one messaging and one-to-one media channels. The study described in this paper set out to understand the impact of localisation for out-of-home (OOH) communications using one-to-many broadcast media. The authors collaborated with SUBWAY® to test how different levels of localisation drove sales of SUBWAY subs. The results of this study contribute to understanding the sweet spot for localised messaging in OOH communications.

Keywords: behavioural science; out-of-home (OOH) advertising; fast food; sales uplift; localisation; personalisation
