Engaging Teens with Digital Out-of-Home Media
Research Provided by: OTX
This research summary provides insight into how Teens engage and react to digital out-of-home media. Teens are young people between the ages of 13- and 17-years-old. They comprise a very social, image-conscious group. A quarter of them (26% vs. 9% of general adults) say that they would pay more for a product that is consistent with the image they want to convey. Many say that they like to go to events like music concerts and sporting events (45% vs. 23% of general adults).
The OTX Digital Out-of-Home Media Awareness and Attitude Study shows how Teens perceive and respond to advertising on digital signs as well as characteristics of their lifestyles. For example:
- 70% report that they have seen advertising on digital signage in the past 12 months
- 55% of the teens surveyed have taken action after seeing an advertisement on digital signs, compared to 36% of general adults
- 59% of Teens reported that they found television advertising to be annoying
- Nearly two-thirds of Teens report that they use text messaging, and are interested in receiving offers regarding music, ring tones, games and music videos
