The experience starts before they ever arrive.

Bring it to life across CTV, streaming audio, online video, display, DOOH, and more, then give audiences a clear path from “I want to go” to “I’m going.”

CAMPAIGNS BUILT AROUND THE OUTCOME

Your goal drives every decision



Whether you’re focused on ticket sales, memberships, attendance, or long-term growth, Strategus builds the media strategy around what you need to accomplish.

You bring the goal

What we solve for arts & entertainment advertisers

Start with the outcome you want.

Selling out a show takes a different plan than growing memberships or filling a casino floor on a weeknight. We build the audience, channel mix, and measurement around the result you need, then connect your media to what people actually did.

Increase Revenue & Sales

Connect media investment to ticket sales, admissions, memberships, subscriptions, merchandise, and other revenue-generating purchases.

Benefits

Why programmatic works for arts & entertainment

People want to see, hear, and picture themselves at an experience before they buy. Programmatic puts it in front of the right people on every screen, from the big moments on CTV to follow-ups on their phones, laptops, and the audio they stream. You stay with them from first look to ticket in hand.

Find the people most likely to show up

Go beyond age and location. We use ticket-buying behavior, entertainment interests, past visits, and your own customer data to reach the fans most likely to buy what you’re promoting.

Turn past guests into repeat visitors

Your best prospects may already know you. We use ticketing lists, past attendees, season-ticket holders, and loyalty members to bring them back, or to find new people who look just like them.

Win guests from the competition

Growth doesn’t always mean finding someone new. Sometimes it means getting them to choose you. We can reach people who’ve visited competing casinos, attractions, and venues, and extend big events into the markets people will travel from.

how it works

Stay with your audience from first look to front row

Buying a ticket or planning a visit rarely happens the first time someone sees an ad. People discover the experience, check dates, compare options, and talk it over with friends or family before they decide to go.

A full-funnel programmatic strategy keeps you visible through that whole journey and gives them more chances to say yes.

Strategize

We start with the experience, the audience, your market, and your ticketing timeline. Then we build the targeting, channel mix, timing, and measurement around the moments that matter.

Reach

Use premium CTV to bring the experience to life, supported by streaming audio, online video, DOOH, and other channels that extend your reach.

Reinforce

Reconnect with exposed households and high-intent audiences using clickable online video and display, giving them additional opportunities to explore the event, view schedules, see offers, and purchase.

Convert

Move audiences toward the action that matters, whether that’s buying a ticket, joining as a member, booking a stay, registering for an event, or visiting the property.

Prove and optimize

Connect your media to ticket purchases, site visits, foot traffic, and revenue. Then we shift budget toward what’s working.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT STRATEGIES

Every crowd is different. So is the strategy that fills it.

Sports teams and sporting events

Casinos and gaming resorts

Reach gaming and entertainment audiences, re-engage loyalty members, win guests from competing properties, and drive visits across gaming, hotel, dining, and entertainment.

Online sportsbooks and casinos

Reach legal-age adults in the states where you’re licensed, drive new sign-ups and first deposits, and bring lapsed players back around big games, tournaments, and promotions.
