Citation preview
Graham Thomas: Introductory Chairman’s Remarks at the
Media Week DOOH Media Summit 2010
Blank ScreenVO: At a time when people are exposed daily to 3,000 or more advertising messages and commercial messages , it is clear that most of it is treated as wallpaper by the consumer. Any message, wherever it is shown, has to have the virtues of simplicity, uniqueness, relevance and be truthful to the brand
THE ‘I CAN’ SOCIETY The era of ‘I can’ is the culmination of the long decline of deference and automatic authority. It is the late flowering of individual autonomy and control… In the ‘I can’ era, people want to be players, not just spectators. They want to be contributors, not just consumers. Technology is enabling these aspirations to be fulfilled…

the ability and the desire of customers to personalise their media
for their needs…

Active personalisation
Dynamic personalisation
A new economic resource – data is the new oil and this applies to media owners as much as anyone else.
Using data is how the best organisations achieve competitive advantage. They are at the forefront of creating customer insights and then revelations from data and contextual data and translating this into real action for their brands and organisations.
VO: Marshall McLuhan ‘s adage that the medium is the message no longer holds true. Consumers are not awed by technology, they are only interested in the content. However his tetrad methodology for understanding the effects of media is a useful tool for media owners and developers.

VO: One of the best uses of DOOH that can be seen at the moment is in Tokyo, where the exterior of a new retail space has been transformed into one giant QR code. It has huge impact but delivers relevant information at exactly the right place.
VO: Across Japan, QR codes are transforming interactions between outdoor media platforms and the mobile phone. This is the future of DOOH – as a starter and catalyst for an interaction.
