What Makes Fresno Unique

Fresno is significantly underserved by programmatic DOOH — most local businesses still rely on print and radio. A $400/month campaign here will achieve near-zero competitive pressure in most categories. Strong first-mover advantage.

Campaign Examples

Salon near River Park — $350/mo on mall + gas stations: 10–15 new booking inquiries/month in a low-competition market. Fitness studio on Blackstone — $400/mo: strong brand awareness lift, 15–20 trial inquiries/month.

Getting Started

Vistar Media (self-serve) or StackAdapt both carry Fresno inventory. Minimum budget: $300/month.

Enter your Fresno address and set a 1–3 mile radius
Select screen categories relevant to your audience (gym, transit, gas station, venue)
Set your daypart schedule (e.g. 6–10am for breakfast; 5–8pm for dinner)
Upload creative (1920×1080px landscape JPEG)
Set daily budget cap — campaigns go live within 24–48 hours

Pro Tip

Run DOOH for at least 60 days before optimising. Brand recognition builds through repetition — the first 30 days establish awareness, the second 30 days convert that awareness into action.

Connecting DOOH to Your Other Marketing Channels

DOOH works best as part of a coordinated local stack:

DOOH + Google Ads: Audiences exposed to DOOH have higher branded search rates. Monitor branded keyword clicks as a leading indicator.
DOOH + Meta Ads: Some DSPs (Vistar, StackAdapt) offer mobile retargeting to devices seen near your screens. Combine for a one-two awareness-to-conversion sequence.
DOOH + Google Business Profile: Brand visibility from DOOH drives more direct GBP searches — track "direct searches" (people searching your exact business name). These typically increase 15–30% during active DOOH campaigns.
