How It Works

Brand activation in malls leverages the unique advantage of reaching consumers at multiple touchpoints throughout their shopping journey. Using hyper-targeted ad placements in popular areas of malls—such as entrances, food courts, escalators, and even in restrooms—Adzze’s media options offer brands an ideal platform to engage customers in an immersive and memorable way.
Adzze provides unique, in-hand advertising options for effective brand activation. Here’s a look at some of Adzze’s media options that can drive results in the mall environment:
Mall Kiosks and Stand Displays: Strategically placed in high-traffic areas, these displays command attention and allow brands to showcase creative messages and promotional material.
Escalator and Elevator Wraps: These placements reach a captive audience, delivering your message as they move throughout the mall. This placement ensures repeated exposure, building brand recall.
Food Court Placements: Through branded placemats or tabletop decals, brands have the chance to connect with consumers while they dine, presenting an uninterrupted experience and boosting engagement.
Interactive Digital Screens and Virtual Reality Stations: These installations offer experiential opportunities to engage with customers on a whole new level by allowing them to participate in interactive campaigns.
In-Restroom Ads: Placing ads in restrooms, especially in high-traffic malls, ensures direct engagement with an audience that’s more likely to notice your messaging in a quieter space.
By strategically using these placements, mall advertising helps create a high level of brand recall and lasting impressions.

Use Cases for Brand Activation Using Mall Advertising

Product Launch Events A beauty brand launching a new line can use mall kiosks for interactive displays that allow shoppers to sample products. By placing digital screens at the entrance or in the beauty sections of the mall, the brand offers personalized experiences while collecting valuable insights from consumer interactions.
Seasonal Campaigns Retailers can leverage mall advertising during holiday seasons by creating festive themes on escalators, food courts, or display stands. For instance, a retail brand might wrap elevators and escalators with seasonal messaging and promote discounts, driving increased foot traffic to their store.
QR Code Scavenger Hunts Interactive mall campaigns that encourage shoppers to scan QR codes on signage, escalator wraps, or tabletop displays in the food court can drive engagement through incentives. Shoppers receive promotions or discounts once they’ve scanned codes in various locations throughout the mall, ultimately boosting traffic and sales.
In-Restroom Branding for Health and Wellness Brands A wellness brand can place ads on restroom mirrors and stalls, focusing on promoting their latest offerings, such as fitness programs or supplements. This approach allows brands to engage customers when they are most likely to notice and appreciate a calming, targeted message, helping them to establish a deeper connection with the audience.
Augmented Reality (AR) Pop-up Experiences AR setups that overlay digital experiences in the physical mall environment can attract tech-savvy customers. For example, a gaming company could create a virtual scavenger hunt using augmented reality to display hidden messages or promotions throughout the mall, encouraging users to engage in a memorable experience with the brand.
