Why TV-visible signage

How LED and signage actually works in a live broadcast.

Seen live, on replay and on every device
DVR-proof & multi-screen delivery

Seen live, on replay and on every device

  • TV-visible signage is a DVR-proof platform, seen in every broadcast — live and replay.
  • Fans watch games live and on-demand from anywhere: computer, tablet or phone.
  • Because the signage is physically in-stadium, advertisers are seen on every screen and every device.
One placement, two fanbases
Multi-market visibility

One placement, two fanbases

  • Regionally broadcast games are typically available in both Home Team and Away Team TV markets, so MLB and NBA advertisers receive exposure in multiple markets simultaneously.
  • Example: in a New York Yankees at Los Angeles Angels game, a brand is seen by Angels fans on the regional network and by Yankees fans on YES Network.
Borrowed equity from the team and the league
Appear as an official partner

Borrowed equity from the team and the league

  • 74% of fans surveyed after watching a clip of a live sporting event said the brand they saw prominently in-stadium was an official team or league sponsor.
  • Example: GEICO is an official partner of MLB at league level, however we work with Progressive across 15+ teams — allowing them to appear far larger than GEICO during the regular season.
Exposure that keeps working after the final whistle
Added value, post-game highlights

Exposure that keeps working after the final whistle

  • Advertisers receive tremendous added value from highlights on nationally televised sports shows, local news, online and social media.
  • The residual value of highlight shows has proven to be +20-25% on top of the in-game exposure.
