Due to the nature of Neighbourhood, we are keen to be highly visible in local communities. This will encourage new users and clients to join the platform.\u00a0Ambient marketing,\u00a0may be simply described as:<\/p>\n

“Ambient was first used in relation to advertising in 1996 by Concord Advertising, a UK agency specialising in\u00a0outdoor campaigns. It evolved from a need to apply a single term to what was an increasing request from clients\u00a0for \u2018something a bit different\u2019 in their advertising.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

At Neighbourhood we will leverage outdoor marketing methods, by encouraging our clients to put up targeted deals and discounts for Neighbourhood users as part of their on-location marketing. Here is a good example of local, outdoor marketing, which appeals to people of a certain name, while encouraging social media sharing, seen in Brixton, in April 2018:<\/p>\n

For Neighbourhood, for example, we could offer free entry to anyone with 10 reward points.\u00a0Our designer, Autumn, has mocked up how this could look:<\/p>\n

Ambient marketing can go even further than this, extending to the use of unusual props, visualisations and experiences in unexpected places.<\/p>\n

“Unusual location is not the only point of difference for Ambient. The\u00a0method of execution is often unusual as well. Holographic projections, role-plays and graffiti are a few examples\u00a0of this and certainly fit within the \u2018something different\u2019 imperative.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As Neighbourhood develops, we will explore more and more outdoor and ambient advertising opportunities in association with our partners, to reach new customers, and contribute to the fun local neighbourhood atmosphere we want to promote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
