As a non-traditional media provider, you need proof that your advertising platform delivers.

From posters or television programming in waiting rooms, to ads on subways, trains and college campuses, GfK’s Place-Based and Alternative Media Research services help you demonstrate your ability to deliver the traffic, exposure and impact advertisers want from non-traditional media campaigns. Drawing on GfK’s network of experienced field researchers, our research gives you access to a full range of cost-effective audience measurement solutions. And you can tailor your solution to reflect the nuances of your particular platform, no matter how unique it may be:

Strengthen Relationships with Advertisers

GfK’s Place-Based and Alternative Media Research services deliver the insights to strengthen relationships with advertisers. In addition, our services help you demonstrate the unique value your platform provides.

Despite the increasing demand for non-traditional media, many advertisers remain skeptical about their ability to reach target audiences and deliver ROI. GfK’s Place-Based and Alternative Media Research helps non-traditional media owners prove they can deliver the audiences advertisers are looking to reach.

Armed with the evidence to show your medium is effective in getting your advertiser’s message across to the right audiences, you’ll be positioned to build and strengthen relationships with advertisers—and keep them coming back.
