Why Goldfish Ads

    Custom campaign visualizations, proprietary audience data, and direct access to the platform team — built for buyers who need more than a standard DOOH insertion order.

    Custom Campaign Visualizations

    Every campaign ships with visual evidence. Clients see their real creative on real screens, explore proposed placements in 3D, and navigate interactive maps that tell the complete story of where the campaign ran.

    Live, in-field photographs

    Professional photographers capture the campaign running on actual screens in the market. Volume depends on campaign minimums.

    Proof-of-performance visuals

    Receive visual records showing the advertisements that ran during the campaign. Volume depends on campaign minimums.

    Actual campaign creative

    Each visual displays the client’s real creative — not a generic representation.

    Actual screen verification

    Visuals identify the specific screen on which the advertisement appeared.

    Timestamped documentation

    Each image includes the date and time associated with the campaign placement.

    Real-world campaign evidence

    Clients can see how their advertisements appeared in the environments where they ran.

    Presentation-ready assets

    Campaign visuals can be used in internal reports, executive presentations, case studies, and post-campaign recaps.

    3D Street View Mockups

    • Custom 3D Street View visualizations. Goldfish creates realistic 3D representations showing how the client’s creative will look on the selected billboard or screen.
    • Placement-specific mockups. Creative is displayed on representations of the actual proposed placements.
    • Pre-campaign visualization. Clients can evaluate how their creative will appear in the real world before approving the campaign.
    • Multiple creative representations. Different formats, environments, markets, and creative variations can be visualized.

    Interactive Campaign Maps

    • Custom interactive campaign maps. Campaign locations are presented through client-specific maps.
    • Detailed screen information. Maps can display exact locations, venue types, formats, placement details, and other relevant campaign information.
    • Visual campaign storytelling. Maps, mockups, photographs, and proof visuals work together to communicate the complete campaign clearly.

    Proprietary Audience Data

    Goldfish Ads includes proprietary audience data with every campaign. The methodology is cohort-based, cookieless, and purpose-built for DOOH — so planning starts with the audience and extends across channels.

    Custom audience composition: Cohorts can be developed around the campaign’s objectives, customer profile, geography, category, and desired outcomes.

    Consistent audience definitions: The same cohort composition can be maintained across DOOH and supporting digital media.
