Clear Channel unveils the first DOOH Christmas Gift Guide
Clear Channel has unveiled the first digital out of home (DOOH) Christmas Gift Guide, featuring gift ideas from a range of brands to inspire shoppers in the run-up to the festive season.

The campaign, which is the first of its kind, was inspired by traditional printed Christmas gift guides and the concept has been adapted to use DOOH’s creativity and flexibility. Each 10-second spot includes all six brands in creative reminiscent of the traditional gift guide layout and features subtle animation to drive cut-through and engage consumers.
The campaign will be live during shopping hours and will be played out two million times during its two-week run, reaching an estimated audience of 6.2 million people.

"Its play on the traditional gift catalogue concept is a fun and effective way to inspire shoppers, and will reach large audiences across busy high streets nationwide through Adshel Live’s network of digital screens.”
Commenting on the campaign, Vizeum Communications Planning Manager Courtney Stewart, said: “The Clear Channel team came to us with a creative concept that would allow us to reach and target Christmas shoppers while they are in the shopping mindset."
"Out of home is a powerful tool for building awareness and driving consideration, and with the added flexibility that DOOH gives to schedule plays during peak shopping hours, it is a really original and festive way for products to be showcased to a gifting audience.”
Lily Mark, Account Manager, Vizeum added: “Clear Channel are always looking to push the boundaries with creativity and innovation. This is a perfect example of how they build in flexibility for their clients and a great opportunity for Shop Direct to showcase their product range on the high street in an OOH gift guide format.”
