SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

About five grand.

So we have like out of the 18 customers, um, all 18 of them, um, were, were kind of started out as pilots, which is kind of an ugly term for us, but, um, we often have to go through fairly long pilots.

And then we've had about six of those 18 converts so far.

uh yeah we had one uh we had one client um stop our service after the pilot said they didn't want it um it's kind of an interesting space where and it's very disruptive i mean is it competitive i mean do you have competitors or what we have guys who use cameras so they put a camera on the screen and track people we actually track people through small wi-fi sensors

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

So I wouldn't say it's very competitive.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

It's just the industry is slow to adapt or adopt these types of things.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

I mean, they've been telling their clients, you know, hey, a million people walk by this display, just trust us.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

And then when we come back with the data and it says, well, actually, only half a million people walk by this screen.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

You know, some people don't like that.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

So it's based on a CPM rate.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

So cost per thousand people.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

Let's say the mall...

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

How do you know a million people go through it a year and your billboard is up there for a month?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

They'll divide a million by 12 and say, OK, you know, it's X amount of dollars per impression.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

Therefore, you owe us X amount of dollars.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

But it's not very accurate.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

It really depends.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
EP 363: Google AdSense for Physical BillBoards Does $250k with Douglas Lusted

it varies so much.
