About Us

Our Vision

The Out of Home (Outdoor) Industry has proved itself as a powerful medium within a world crowded by multiple forms of alternative media. Research shows that Outdoor advertising can drive people into stores and prompt consumer decisions in the shops at the shelf or online on their phones.


In fact, the industry body Outsmart has said that people who have viewed an OOH campaign are 37% more likely to make a brand action on their phone than those not exposed in an outdoor environment (a study using an earlier form of our technology was used to measure this).


However, Outdoor only gets a fraction of a companies marketing budget compared to other media, typically between 4 to 8% of overall marketing spend. Why is this, when it’s a cheaper option to drive people into stores or make a purchase online?



One answer: lack of metrics.

"No one gets fired for buying IBM computers”

So why switch online and TV spend to outdoor? It would be a bold decision by a Marketing Director to shift a significant proportion of spend to Outdoor. They use data to justify their spending choices and other forms of media have this data in abundance, clicks, views, copies sold and dwell time amongst other things.


Our partners Trinity McQueen, regularly conduct advertising research and understand the power of Outdoor as an effective advertising medium that punches above its weight. Following this, we at Impromptu Intelligence pondered that if an outdoor media owner had the ability to give their advertisers similar metrics when planning or reviewing a campaign, surely a brave marketing director could make the decision to shift a bigger percentage to this proven medium? 


However, unlike alternatives, we didn’t want to use pseudo figures, a weighted sample, or a proportion of people that have an app on their phone.



We wanted to know the actual numbers.

We can confidently tell you how many people with a mobile phone have passed your advert and measure how long they were in the vicinity.

Introducing: The IMP

Using our cleverly created device that we have named ‘The IMP’, we believe we have got as close as possible to providing those marketing directors with the raw data they so desire. 


Equally, for c. 5% of the usual cost of one campaign evaluation in a national newspaper, we can provide this data for a screen all year round. For all of the campaigns that run on that screen you can provide the media buyer with frequency and footfall data.


 With our technology at hand, we have opened the doors for measuring people on a large scale without the need for fancy cameras or downloadable apps. Our IMP is going to revolutionise not only how the marketing sphere measures viewership, but also has the potential to be used for other purposes.


If this sounds too good to be true, it’s not.
