Why Funding for Programmatic OOH Campaigns Is Coming Out of Mobile Ad Budgets

Think out-of-home (OOH) advertising is just about static billboards, bus stops and benches? Think again.

This adoption is extending to smaller networks, especially new entrants in the space that are looking to monetize without building a full media-based business.
