Your customers move across screens. Your advertising should, too.

Reach customers across CTV, streaming audio, online video, display, DOOH, and more. Your brand runs one national campaign, and each ad reaches just the ZIP codes around the right location.

One brand. Many markets. One smarter media strategy.

‍The benfits

Why programmatic works for franchises

Franchise advertising has to do two things at once: protect the strength of the brand and drive results in individual markets.

Strategus helps you do both, scaling campaigns across your system while keeping every ad relevant to the market it runs in.

Reach the right customers in the right markets

Go beyond broad demographics with your own customer data, audience and interest data, and targeting around individual locations, service areas, and priority markets, so local budgets go where they'll do the most.

Stay with them across screens

Customers rarely decide after one ad. Build awareness on CTV, online video, and streaming audio, then use Encore™ cross-device retargeting to reconnect with households that saw your ads, on display and other screens, until they're ready to act.

Scale the brand, stay local

One brand doesn't mean every market needs the same campaign. We keep your brand consistent while adapting targeting, creative, offers, and media to each location and market.

Dynamic creative

One ad, made local for every location

Making a separate ad for every location takes time and budget most franchise systems don't have. With dynamic creative, you build one ad, and each location gets its own version, with the right address, offer, price, or phone number added automatically.

Always on brand

Each location's details are added automatically, while your logo, colors, and message stay the same everywhere.

Change offers fast

When a promotion changes, update your feed or sheet and every ad refreshes, in as little as 10 minutes.

Less production

No new shoot for every market or promo, so more of your budget goes toward reaching customers.

HOW IT WORKS

Turn franchise awareness into action

Customers may discover your brand on TV, research a nearby location on their phone, see another ad while browsing, and ultimately visit, call, book, order, or buy.

We connect those moments, building awareness nationally while driving action locally.

Here's how Strategus builds the path from campaign goal to franchise growth.

Strategize

Start with your brand goals, locations, markets, and audiences. Strategus uses Blueprint™ to build the targeting, media plan, and measurement around them.

Reach

Introduce your brand on CTV, OTT, streaming audio, and DOOH to the right customers in every market.

Reinforce

Reconnect with households that saw your ads on display and online video, where they can click straight through to the next step.

Convert

Make the next step easy, with ads that lead straight to the nearest location's page, phone number, or booking link.

Prove and optimize

See how your campaigns drive calls, bookings, visits, and sales in each market, with 24/7 reporting and recommendations from the Strategus team. Incrementality testing is available on request.
