- Auckland
JCDecaux has again proven its commitment to high-tech and agile outdoor solutions with the launch of five new digital portrait sites in high-traffic, highly visible locations in the heart of Auckland, delivering advertisers an average of 1.2 million^ connections each week across the network.
The high impact JCDecaux Portrait Network digital sites are located in key shopping and entertainment precincts in the inner-city suburbs of Epsom, St Lukes, College Hill, Kingsland and Remuera, to ring-fence the Auckland CBD. They deliver advertisers a high frequency platform in a portrait format, providing more creative opportunities with greater impact.
The network offers brands increased flexibility in creative messaging, with the opportunity to run messages that are reactive, tactical and location specific, to drive consumer engagement and relevance.
Each of the converted static sites measures 3.1m by 4.8m and will appeal to advertisers with a strong preference for portrait orientation artwork.
JCDecaux Country Head, Mike Watkins, said: “These locations have been carefully selected to target the most desirable demographics in Auckland. Advertisers now have the opportunity to easily purchase our Portrait Network covering the most sought-after inner city suburban locations, all with high volume traffic flows and long dwell times.”
The five new digital portrait sites follow the recent launch of two JCDecaux digital billboards at Auckland International Airport and on the iconic Parnell Bridge, and are a key part of the company’s ongoing digitisation strategy to prioritise sites in prominent outdoor locations.
More sites will be added to the Portrait Network over the course of the year.
