PetCARE TV, LLC Converts to Broadsign International, LLC’s Digital Signage Software

Predominant digital signage network in veterinarian offices uses Broadsign’s cloud-based platform to power its growing number of screens.

Baltimore, MD. April 24th, 2014. PetCARE TV, LLC, the subsidiary of Care Media and CaerVision, has converted its network of 1,750 screens to Broadsign International, LLC’s leading digital signage software platform. The healthcare network plans to be situated in 5,000 locations by 2016. Founded in the early 1990’s, PetCARE TV operates 32”-42” LED screens in the waiting rooms of veterinarian offices and holds close to a 100% market share within the vertical.

The network’s audience of over 1.5 million viewers per month are exposed to 40 minutes of educational content per hour, lessening perceived wait time and informing viewers of the procedures and services offered by the veterinarian. The remaining 20 minutes are set for advertising by big box retailers, pharmaceutical companies and brands for packaged goods such as cat litter and dog food. Doctors running PetCARE TV’s eight hour content loop are able to customize it as desired, and appreciate the network for its help in selling services and products while educating and entertaining pet owners.

“PetCARE TV is the product of two separate networks that were running on different software platforms, which created a huge headache,” said Kim Sarubbi, President of PetCARE TV. “Broadsign allowed us to migrate to one platform and its software possesses all the features and benefits we were looking for. It was a real win-win situation.”

Broadsign features used by PetCARE TV include monitoring to ensure screens are consistently on and reporting to seamlessly assist in the fulfillment of ad buy contracts. “Broadsign has developed an exceptional reputation in the healthcare and point-of-care spheres,” said Skip Beloff, Broadsign’s Vice President of Sales. “We are happy to provide our services to PetCARE TV and know that they, along with our other healthcare customers, will continue to request new innovations that only Broadsign can deliver.”

PATTISON Modernizes its Out-of-Home Technology Stack with Broadsign

Partnership streamlines daily operations and unlocks new revenue potential; enables PATTISON clients to maximize OOH campaigns

Montreal, Canada, April 25, 2024 – Out-of-home (OOH) ad tech leader Broadsign today announced that PATTISON Outdoor Advertising, a leading Canadian OOH media owner, has adopted the full Broadsign OOH technology stack. With Broadsign already providing a centralized hub for its programmatic digital OOH (DOOH) workflows, the expanded partnership now enables PATTISON to dynamically manage and optimize its OOH inventory to unlock previously untapped revenue opportunities. The partnership also opens up new ways for brands to book campaigns on PATTISON inventory with a more targeted, impression-based approach and accelerates the rate at which PATTISON can display client ads across its OOH inventory, spanning urban pathways, residential and office buildings, transit hubs, airports, and other venues across Canada.

Providing a near real-time ad scheduling workflow comprising advanced optimization and prioritization tools, the Broadsign platform is helping PATTISON reallocate time previously spent on manual campaign pacing and adding daily plays to bump up the delivery of low-pacing campaigns. Broadsign’s optimization engine works on a play-by-play or impression level based on each campaign’s goals, and enables PATTISON’s sales team to easily find more available inventory, even in high sellout periods. With the updated OOH platform, PATTISON can now easily customize campaigns to align with client needs. Since beginning its rollout of the new platform in early March, it has powered OOH campaigns for some of PATTISON’s largest clients, including Holt Renfrew, Lotto Quebec, McDonald’s, and Tim Hortons.

“In evaluating our options, the Broadsign tech stack quickly emerged as the best fit, especially for our ad-serving needs. It lets us maximize yield and revenue potential while ensuring pDOOH campaigns can be seamlessly executed based on client goals, with little to no manual intervention,” shared PATTISON Director of Digital Innovation Jessica Littlejohn. “Our digital product offering has never been more robust than with Broadsign at its core, and our team has more time to do what we do best – understand and help our clients achieve their objectives.”

Echoing Littlejohn’s sentiments, PATTISON President Steve McGregor, added, “The support the Broadsign team has provided along the journey has been instrumental in helping us to achieve our business goals and prepare for our next phase of growth.”

“PATTISON is an industry trailblazer with a reputation for always being one step ahead of the curve. It was one of the first media owners to offer full-scale programmatic DOOH and advanced audience-based targeting options,” shared Maarten Dollevoet, Chief Revenue Officer, Broadsign. “PATTISON’s commitment to evolving its digital toolset to prepare for the next wave of OOH is inspiring, and we’re excited to partner with them to help them reach their goals.”
