Campaigns

Book airtime, target screens, run it.

1. Check availability first

   Campaigns → Availability. Pick the dates, where (all screens, a group, location, region or category) and the ad length. It shows how much paid airtime is already booked on each screen and how many more plays fit — check this before you quote.

   

2. New campaign

   Campaigns → + New campaign. Choose the type: Paid (an advertiser), Host promo (complimentary content for a host) or Network (house, community or fallback content). Set the name and start and end dates.

   

3. Use a package

   Pick a Package and click Apply package to fill in its targets, campaign length, plays per loop and price. Set packages up in Settings → Packages (e.g. Geelong-wide, 1 month, $450). You can still change anything afterwards.

4. Targeting

   Add any mix of: all network screens, a group, a single screen, a location, a region or suburb, or a venue category. A screen matching any target is included.

5. Creatives

   Tick the creatives to use. Use Only for group to play a different version in one group (e.g. a Surf Coast version).

6. Priority and plays per loop

   Plays per loop is how often it appears in each screen's loop. When paid airtime is oversold, higher Priority campaigns get in first. Tick Allow past the per-advertiser cap only for exclusive or takeover bookings.

7. Daypart (optional)

   Only play between set times on set days, in each screen's own timezone. For example, a breakfast offer 7–10am.

8. Validate & book

   Validate & book checks for missing or unapproved creatives, bad dates, no matching screens and orientation gaps. Booked campaigns go live on their start date and stop after their end date by themselves.

9. Change it later

   Pause/Resume, Extend (new end date), Duplicate (copies as a draft) and Cancel. Screens pick up changes within a minute.

10. Is it delivering?

    Once live, the campaign shows Delivery: confirmed plays against roughly what it should have had for the time its screens were online. The Overview lists any live campaign under 80% for the last 7 days, so you can check its screens before the advertiser notices.
