Vorig jaar was het EK Voetbal live via de netwerken van CSDM te volgen. Als Oranje speelde verschenen de goals, de doelpuntenmakers en de gele en rode kaarten realtime op de schermen zodat metroreizigers die niet in het stadion zaten van de vaak spannende duels konden genieten. Rond de wedstrijden werden bovendien de uitslagen en de standen van het toernooi uitgezonden, waardoor adverteerders die zich met een campagne aan de Live Feed hadden verbonden toch hun bereik behielden. Onder leiding van Leon Roosendaal bespreken Zarin van Ophem (sales), Yorick Blonck (sales en business owner van het e-commerce platform Oohrder) en Willem te Wierik (sales) de destijds ingezette DOOH-applicatie (Opta) Live Feed. Hoe werkt het? Waarvoor is de tool inzetbaar? En welke voordelen kunnen DOOH-adverteerders ermee behalen? Yorick Blonck: ‘Voor onze Live Feed gebruiken we een zelfgebouwde webcontent app, een HTML-platform, waarmee we via een API informatie uit databases ophalen en realtime naar onze schermen pushen. Wij kunnen dat, in tegenstelling tot andere DOOH-partijen die daar nog veel moeite mee hebben en met vertragingen en dergelijke te maken hebben, omdat wij een webbased signage oplossing in huis hebben. Tijdens het EK vertoonden we data van Opta Sports, maar in principe kan het bijvoorbeeld ook met beurskoersen en andere zaken. Voor adverteerders is de applicatie interessant omdat ze zich met een campagne op een subtiele manier en zonder een al te grote investering kunnen kunnen profileren als “sportief” of als sponsor. Zie het als een powered by add, een stukje extra branding.' Op dit moment is CSDM op zoek naar adverteerders die de Live Feed willen inzetten rondom het WK Voetbal en/of andere events. Interesse?
