Digital response path

From Seen to Customer.

Physical visibility can become a measurable digital relationship when the response path is built into the campaign. Example path: QR → trade appraisal → lead.

  1. Ad seen
  2. QR / CTA
  3. Claim
  4. Lead
  5. Appointment / visit
  6. Redemption
  7. Follow-up
  8. Return

Don’t Let the Scan Be the End of the Campaign.

Radius Engage™ can turn the original response into a digital offer, lead, appointment, loyalty relationship, membership experience, or referral opportunity — with clear consent.

Measure More Than Impressions.

Depending on campaign configuration, observable activity may include:

  • QR scans
  • Claim-page visits
  • Form submissions
  • Calls
  • Appointments
  • Offer claims
  • Redemptions
  • Loyalty enrollment
  • Referral activity

Available measurement depends on media format, campaign configuration, provider integrations, and customer response path. Results are not guaranteed.

Right place. Right message. Right incentive. Measurable action.

Frequently asked questions

How does place-based advertising work for dealerships?

AdRadius IQ maps the grocery stores, gyms, pharmacies and other everyday venues inside your radius, then identifies verified and potential advertising environments your customers already move through.

What radius should dealerships advertise within?

10–15 miles for most rooftops; 20–25 miles or PMA-based for high-line and truck markets.

Is pricing shown on the site?

No. Availability, formats and pricing are confirmed directly with the media owner after you request availability — every market is different.

What's the difference between verified and potential locations?

Verified locations are ones AdRadius IQ has confirmed or manually added. Potential locations sit inside your radius and support advertising but haven't been confirmed yet — both are clearly labeled.

Venues surfaced by a radius search are potential advertising opportunities. Availability, formats and pricing are confirmed with the media owner before any campaign is booked.

How this fits a larger local campaign

You can run this on its own, or combine it with other formats in one market strategy. Availability and pricing are confirmed in a private proposal.
