Transit Ads™ has extended the size and scale of its TRANSIT.TV™ offering, with the launch of two new large format digital screens in a pair of popular taxi ranks.<\/p>\n

The venues are situated in Mdantsane in the Eastern Cape and Thohoyandou in Limpopo, and the roll-out of these large format 3m x 6m screens is a first for Transit Ads™ .<\/p>\n

Mdantsane\u00a0is a\u00a0township situated 15\u00a0kilometres from\u00a0East London<\/a>\u00a0and 37\u00a0kilometres from\u00a0King William’s Town<\/a>, and is one of the largest urban settlements in South Africa, with a 2011 census estimating its population at approximately 156,000 people.<\/p>\n

\"\"Thohoyandou is the main development node in\u00a0the Thulamela Local Municipality<\/a>\u00a0in Limpopo, with approximately 70,000 residents. It is further surrounded by numerous rural settlements situated on the outskirts of the built-up area.<\/p>\n

In these locations, Transit Ads™ \u00a0is expected to reach audiences of approximately 475,000 (Thohoyandou) and 347,000 (Mdantsane), and along with these impressive numbers, these two sites presented Transit Ads™ \u00a0with the opportunity to extend its growing national footprint and flex its muscles in the digital space.<\/p>\n

\u201cTransit Ads™ is constantly looking at opportunities to innovate the brand experience within the taxi environment, and these two sites are the perfect locations for that,\u201d says Shamy Naidoo, Transit Ads™ Executive. \u201cDigital billboards are an example of how Transit Ads™ is driving that innovation and the stats out there are worth noting. Nearly three quarters of respondents to a recent Nielsen survey said that digital billboards \u201cstand out\u201d more than online ads, whilst 46% said they stand out more than TV ads.\u201d<\/p>\n

By way of example and to further illustrate the power of digital out of home advertising, a study carried out in in 2017 revealed that full motion DOOH \u2013 as on display in Mdantsane and Thohoyandou – is 2.5 times more effective than static sites.[1]\"Digital<\/a><\/p>\n

The research used brain imaging to explore the neurological impact of DOOH content on audiences. These were benchmarked against responses obtained for TV and online video campaigns.<\/p>\n

It found that both static and full motion content delivered high levels of positive emotional response, but full motion creative delivered more branded peaks of memory encoding, which for advertisers means better brand assimilation and recall.<\/p>\n

When you apply those principles to TRANSIT.TV™ and the taxi rank environment, where you have captivated economically-active commuters, a high-traffic location and plenty of dwell time, the end result is high levels of impact, recall and engagement simultaneously.<\/p>\n
