High street impact.
Retail presence.

Our screens are positioned in high-footfall and high-traffic environments — from supermarkets and telecom stores to gyms, cinemas, banks and transport hubs. With our Audiences in Focus research showing that nearly two-thirds of adults visit a high street weekly, Adshel Live captures audiences in real-world buying environments.

Icons representing twelve types of locations: Coffee Shops, Supermarket & Convenience Stores, Pubs / Bars, Chemists, Cinemas, Banks, Stadiums, Health Clubs & Gyms, Restaurants, Fast Food / QSR, Rail Stations, and Telecoms.

A smarter planning framework

At any moment, 95% of buyers are out of market. Brands grow by staying mentally available until consumers enter buying mode. The Bauer Effect is our evidence-based framework for effective planning of Out of Home campaigns that allows brands to:

1. Build long-term memory structures

2. Refresh brand salience

3. Remind in-market buyers

4. Reinforce at purchase points

5. Reach light category buyers nationally

Every step of the journey

The flexibility of Adshel Live enables brands to be use at every stage, and by using our AdAstra audience planning tool we can use third- and first-party data to find the exact audiences that you need.

Build

Create long-term brand memories

Use Adshel Live to build mental availability, brand priming and emotional connection. By the clever use of category entry points you can trigger memory encoding. Research shows that the use of contextually relevant OOH messaging increases campaign effectiveness by +17%.

Refresh

Keep brand memories active

Memories decay. Through Adshel Live you can keep your brand visible. Use your brand’s distinctive brand assets (DBAs) to be prominent and recognisable. Our study on this not only reveals the importance of this but provides guiding prinicipals to help create a powerful poster.

Remind

Stay front-of-mind for in-market buyers

You don’t know when a potential buyer enters the market, so it’s important to be there when they do. With national coverage across 4,100+ screens, Adshel Live ensures good coverage through scalable national presence and consistent frequency. Reach as many people as possible, as often as possible.

Reinforce

Influence at the point of purchase

With physical retail still dominating, Adshel Live delivers brands rented prominence in prime retail and leisure hotspots on high streets and in city centres. Activation messaging at these moments can drive action and influence choice.

Reach

Find light category buyers across the UK

Brand growth comes from light buyers, not just heavy users. Adshel Live reaches audiences from Aberdeen to Plymouth. Our data-driven planning increases campaign efficiency and helps brands identify and target priority audiences that can help their brand grow.
