About us

Advertising that belongs to the neighbourhood

ReachScreen turns the televisions that businesses already own into a local advertising network. Venues earn from a screen that used to cost them money. Advertisers reach the people sitting in front of it, and get proof it actually played.

Why we exist

Two problems that solve each other

01

Many businesses are priced out

Outdoor advertising is sold to companies with national budgets. The businesses that make up a neighbourhood - the salon, the pharmacy, the phone shop - have almost nowhere to advertise except social media, where they compete with the whole world for attention.

02

Venue screens earn nothing

Meanwhile a great many venues already have a television on the wall, playing whatever happens to be on. It costs them electricity and returns nothing. It is sitting in front of exactly the local audience those businesses want to reach.

03

We connect the two

A small player app turns that television into a ReachScreen channel: entertainment chosen for the space, with local ads woven between it. The advertiser gets a screen in the right neighbourhood. The venue gets paid for it.

What we hold to

How we run this network

Proof, not estimates

Every play is logged by the screen that played it. Advertisers see where their ad ran and how often, rather than a projected reach figure that nobody can check.

The venue gets paid

A venue's TV is their asset, not free inventory for us to fill. Venues hosting our screens earn a share of what the advertising on them makes.

Priced for the businesses on the street

Billboards and radio are priced for national brands. A salon, a phone shop or a gym should be able to advertise to the neighbourhood it actually serves, at a price that makes sense for that neighbourhood.

A screen that is off earns nobody anything

Every morning we check that each screen has collected the day's ads and sent back a record of what it played. If one has not checked in, the venue hears from us that morning rather than at the end of a month of nothing.
