Audio Ad Tech is an Industry First, Measuring Nearly 2X Lift in Store Visits in First Campaigns in Australia
Mobile engagement specialist Big Mobile has partnered with AdsWizz, the leading global platform for digital audio advertising, to implement tech that tracks unique visits to retail locations from specific audio ad campaigns. In its first campaign with a major Australian brand, the technology measured more than a 90% lift in footfall traffic to their retail locations when individuals listened to their audio ads.

Big Mobile’s location-based ad tech uses a filter for a common device ID captured in the in-app audio session. This is then tracked against device IDs that enter an advertiser’s stores to accurately record footfall attribution, measuring any uplift in visits to the stores as a direct result of the digital audio campaigns.
“We are very pleased with the results and have already signed with advertisers for follow-up campaigns,” said Andrew O’Shea, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Big Mobile Group. “With brick and mortar stores, measuring the success of our audio advertising campaigns has previously been based on guesswork and estimation. Now we have a tangible way to access and track real ROI. It’s a significant advancement in the growing audio industry and we are happy to be on the forefront of this cutting edge technology.”
