ShowHeroes, a pioneer in sustainable digital video and Connected TV (CTV) solutions, has just launched a game-changing new format: Retail Ads for CTV. This innovative feature is designed to take retail and store activation campaigns to the next level by leveraging ShowHeroes’ extensive global publisher network.
Bridging the Gap: On-Screen Engagement Meets Real-World Foot Traffic
Retail Ads for CTV aim to seamlessly connect viewers’ online experiences with tangible shopping trips. Imagine a format that combines eye-catching visual displays, editorial videos crafted by ShowHeroes Studios, and the option for advertisers to feature their own video content. Add to this mix an animated QR code paired with a dynamic store-finder, and what do you get? Immediate access to store locations via precise geolocation!
This means viewers can quickly navigate to the nearest store’s webpage, transforming mere ad impressions into in-store purchases. This direct path from engaging content to real-world actions is a strategic win for advertisers looking to boost foot traffic.

“This is an exciting moment for brands and retailers,” states Sarah Lewis, ShowHeroes Global Director of CTV. “Retail Ads provide the perfect fusion of engaging CTV content and a dynamic store-finder. It turns viewership into real-life foot traffic!”
Navigating the Local Experience: Customized URLs for Engagement
Once viewers scan the QR code, they are directed to a dynamically customized URL that lands them on their local store page. This functionality is tailored for clients prioritizing both in-person and online sales, ensuring a relevant and personalized shopping experience.
As Kay Schneider, ShowHeroes President, puts it, “The Retail Ad format merges customized creative from our ShowHeroes Studios team with the agility to localize messaging and drive results like store visits and customer engagement.” This perfect blend of creativity and strategic impact is set to revolutionize how retailers engage customers.
