			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Advertisers typically pay by CPM to run Xspot campaigns. It&#8217;s in their best interest to know that as many impressions as possible are being served to relevant target audiences.</p>
<p>Now you have an easy way to get advertisers exactly the audience information they need.</p>
<p>Custom reports generated in the Mixpo <strong>Dashboard</strong> include a table that lists views, clicks, and other performance data by designated marketing area (DMA).</p>
<div id="attachment_1921" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://videoadviser.mixpo.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/dma_reportstats.png"><img src="http://videoadviser.mixpo.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/dma_reportstats-300x141.png" alt="DMA table in custom report" title="dma_reportstats" width="300" height="141" class="size-medium wp-image-1921" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">DMA table in custom report - Click for larger image</p></div>
<p>Because the 210 U.S. DMAs are organized in the table in descending order by number of views, advertisers can see at a glance how target viewers are responding.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Wharton School&#8217;s associate professor of marketing, David Bell, <a target="_blank"  href="http://www.bnet.com/2403-13241_23-351380.html">argues</a> that even Internet businesses, whose customers are potentially in unlimited locations, need to market their services at the local level.</p>
<p>What works in San Francisco may not work in Philadelphia. What&#8217;s relevant to residents in one designated marketing area (DMA) may not be relevant to residents in another.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s why, as comScore vice president, Brian Jurutka, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.marketingcharts.com/interactive/one-in-10-display-ads-locally-targeted-10733/">points out</a>, &#8220;locally targeted ads&#8230;represent a more efficient allocation of ad dollars.&#8221;</p>
<p>With the Mixpo platform, you can offer your advertisers the opportunity to allocate their ad dollars more efficiently by going local. The geotargeting process is straight-forward and cost effective.</p>
<ol>
<li>Work with an advertiser to determine the target geographical unit. For example, will the advertiser deliver different content by DMA? Zip code? Area code?</li>
<li>Identify the location-specific content appropriate for each targeted unit.</li>
<li>Upload a TV spot and add overlays and other interactive elements to turn the passive spot into an active Xspot.</li>
<li>Embed one ad tag and dynamically deliver different content to viewers in hundreds of different geographic locations.</li>
</ol>
<div id="attachment_1750" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://videoadviser.mixpo.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/geotargeted_overlays.png"><img src="http://videoadviser.mixpo.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/geotargeted_overlays.png" alt="Overlays targeting distinct local audiences" title="geotargeted_overlays" width="300" height="300" class="size-full wp-image-1750" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Overlays targeting distinct local audiences</p></div>
<p>This furniture store video used geotargeting to show viewers contact information for the closest retail location. Other geotargeting possibilities include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Promoting different offers to viewers in different cities, DMAs, zip codes, or area codes.</li>
<li>Linking viewers to locally relevant websites, menus, and coupons.</li>
<li>Delivering sales leads to the appropriate regional agent or representative.</li>
</ul>
