Well, now there is -- with Jinglz! Jinglz has created patent-pending mobile technology that helps consumers truly engage with those ads -- and win prizes for watching them. The Jinglz mobile app plays video ads and uses facial and audio detection to verify that a user is really watching the ads they’re served. If the user looks away, puts the device down, or turns down the volume, the ad pauses. However, once the user watches the ad, they’re rewarded as part of a simple game that lets them earn entry into prize contests and valuable rewards. Voila! Advertisers can verify that users see their ad content, and users are incentivized to watch the ads presented. Everyone wins!
After all, mobile tech ads are currently a $45 billion market. In fact, digital advertising surpassed TV for the first time in 2016 for total ad revenue, growing by 22% over the previous year, and mobile advertising specifically is expected to account for 70% of all digital ad spending in 2017. It’s actually expected to surpass TV in 2019. It’s clear that the future of advertising is digital -- yet 90% of people skip ads because they’re interruptive and annoying.
With Jinglz, that number goes way down -- and views go way up. With a test user base of approximately 15,000 users, more than 1.4 million video ads were served with verified views. Jinglz has spent the past several months rebuilding their platform to improve scalability to handle millions of users, launch their new PlayJinglz mobile app, and create a distributable SDK for app publishers to join their network and monetize their own apps with Jinglz’s technology.
Jinglz is leading an advertising revolution. Their products create measurable, positive change in the mobile advertising space, and they’re redefining what it means to be an engaged consumer. The bottom line is that you can either be annoyed by your ads….or you can jazz them up with Jinglz.
