<strong>2016</strong> highlights<br />

IT'S ALL ABOUT GROWTH<br />

Once again, Out of Home (OOH)<br />

was the ONLY TRADITIONAL MEDIA<br />

CHANNEL TO GROW IN <strong>2016</strong>, according<br />

to Commercial Economic Advisory<br />

Service of Australia (CEASA) – the<br />

advertising industry benchmark. In<br />

<strong>2016</strong>, CEASA reported OOH’s share of<br />

advertising spend was 5.74% out of the<br />

$13.47 billion total spent on advertising.<br />

A little about us | SECTION 02<br />

<strong>OMA</strong><br />

Representing<br />

90% of the Out<br />

of Home (OOH)<br />

advertising<br />

industry in<br />

Australia.<br />

The Outdoor Media Association<br />

(<strong>OMA</strong>) is the peak national industry<br />

body representing most of Australia’s<br />

OOH media display companies<br />

and production facilities, as well as<br />

some media display asset owners.<br />

OOH advertising plays an important<br />

role in our economy and our cities.<br />

OOH advertising is always on,<br />

delivering messages 24 hours a day,<br />

seven days a week. It is ubiquitous,<br />

innovative, entertaining and effective;<br />

it is one of the ways people interact<br />

with their cities and communities.<br />

As our populations become more<br />

urbanised, technology is enhancing<br />

OOH, making it the primary media<br />

channel that connects people with<br />

places. With over 50% of OOH revenue<br />

returned to governments and landlords<br />

around Australia, collaboration is key<br />

to enabling OOH to deliver smartcity<br />

solutions that benefit us all.<br />

4<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong>’s mission is to build a more<br />

sustainable industry for members<br />

by promoting the OOH industry and<br />

developing constructive relationships<br />

with primary stakeholders within<br />

industry and government. Its core<br />

functions include audience measurement<br />

and data management, marketing and<br />

communications, government relations<br />

and ongoing member services, including<br />

advisory and training services.<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> media display members advertise<br />

third party* products on both digital<br />

and traditional signs across a variety of<br />

OOH formats and locations: airports,<br />

bicycle stations, billboards, buses,<br />

bus stations, cafes, doctors’ surgeries,<br />

free-standing advertisement panels,<br />

medical centres, office buildings<br />

and lifts, pedestrian bridges, railway<br />

stations, shopping centres, street<br />

furniture (bus/tram shelters, public<br />

toilets, telephone booths and kiosks),<br />

trains, trams and universities.<br />

GOVERNANCE<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> is governed by a Board<br />

of Directors (p.12) elected by the<br />

membership. The <strong>OMA</strong> Board of<br />

Directors met five times in <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> Member Companies (p.58)<br />

adhere to an industry Code of<br />

Ethics** to ensure businesses<br />

operate responsibly and abide by the<br />

industry’s regulatory framework.<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> operates nationally and, prior<br />

to July 2005, traded as the Outdoor<br />

Advertising Association of Australia.<br />

It was first incorporated on<br />

1 August 1939.


*Advertising in which the advertisement is not associated with the premises eg. a land or property<br />

owner allows an Outdoor media company to display an advertisement for a third-party product.<br />

A little about us | SECTION 02<br />

MOVE<br />

Simplifies the planning<br />

and buying of Out of<br />

Home (OOH).<br />

MOVE (Measurement of Outdoor<br />

Visibility and Exposure) is a webbased<br />

interactive software system that<br />

simplifies the planning and buying of<br />

OOH for media buyers, advertisers,<br />

and Outdoor media operators.<br />

The culmination of years of work<br />

and over $22 million invested<br />

by the industry to date, MOVE<br />

provides audience measurement<br />

results for any combination of OOH<br />

formats or tailored packages.<br />

Expansions in<br />

planning data.<br />

In <strong>2016</strong>, MOVE worked with Ipsos<br />

to integrate MOVE data in to emma<br />

(Enhanced Media Metrics Australia).<br />

This data integration is available<br />

to subscribers of emma in Ipsos’s<br />

Data Friend software and RDA<br />

Research’s geoemma software.<br />

This is MOVE’s first step forward<br />

in providing a richer and more<br />

detailed profile of OOH audiences for<br />

agencies and clients, and 2017 will<br />

see further innovation in this area.<br />

There is no other<br />

system in Australia or<br />

abroad that measures<br />

OOH audiences to<br />

the same depth.<br />

ACCURATE MEASUREMENT<br />

MOVE measures 80,300 advertising<br />

faces in Australia’s five major capital<br />

cities (Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne,<br />

Perth and Sydney). MOVE enhances<br />

the standard measurement of target<br />

audiences, or Opportunity To See<br />

(OTS), by reporting the audiences<br />

that actively see the advertising<br />

through its ground breaking currency,<br />

Likelihood To See (LTS). As well as<br />

providing results numerically, through<br />

its in-built mapping capability, MOVE<br />

also provides these numbers visually:<br />

the reach of a campaign against the<br />

chosen demographic and markets.<br />

MOVE can provide<br />

accurate reach and<br />

frequency results.<br />

With MOVE came the introduction of<br />

a new audience measurement value to<br />

Australian media, known as Likelihood<br />

To See (LTS). This means that only<br />

those people from within the chosen<br />

demographic who on average saw<br />

the OOH advertising campaign are<br />

included in the audience measurement<br />

results, going beyond the Opportunity<br />

To See (OTS). LTS is derived by<br />

applying a Visibility Index (VI) to the<br />

OTS for each OOH advertising face.<br />

The VI for a sign is based on factors<br />

from the sign, as well as audience and<br />

environment factors. This enables<br />

MOVE to have different VIs for different<br />

viewing locations, different travel<br />

modes and different environments.<br />

MOVE had 54 agencies<br />

that logged on to its<br />

web-based system<br />

in <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

PARTICIPANTS<br />

Across these agencies, a total of<br />

763 users logged in 10,272 times,<br />

up 33.9% on the 588 agency users<br />

who logged in 7,670 times in 2015.<br />

Since its launch in<br />

2010, MOVE has<br />

continuously updated<br />

its data on an<br />

annual basis.<br />

DATA UPDATES<br />

Regular updates ensure the integrity<br />

and accuracy of the audience<br />

measurement data published.<br />

In September, MOVE announced the<br />

findings from its <strong>2016</strong> data update<br />

(p.42), revealing the national audience<br />

for OOH had grown by 2.8% year-onyear.<br />

On average that is 200,000 more<br />

people each day exposed to OOH.<br />

GOVERNANCE<br />

MOVE is governed by a Board of<br />

Directors voted in by the MOVE<br />

shareholders and includes the MOVE<br />

CEO who represents the interests<br />

of the minority shareholders. There<br />

were four official meetings of the<br />

MOVE Board of Directors in <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

TRAINING<br />

MOVE provided software and<br />

methodology training throughout<br />

the year for agencies and members.<br />

There were 362 people who<br />

attended the training sessions<br />

(217 agency, 66 <strong>OMA</strong> members, and<br />

Leading the charge | SECTION 03<br />

A message from the<br />

Chairman<br />

As we move into 2017<br />

and my third year as<br />

Chairman, I reflect on<br />

the year that was with<br />

an incredible sense<br />

of pride.<br />

<strong>2016</strong> was unstoppable for the Out of<br />

Home (OOH) industry, our seventh<br />

consecutive year of revenue growth,<br />

posting a 15.8% net media revenue<br />

increase year-on-year. The industry’s<br />

net media revenue reached a record<br />

high of $789.5 million in <strong>2016</strong>, up<br />

from $682.1 million* in 2015.<br />

The demand for immediacy and<br />

flexibility continued to drive Digital<br />

OOH (DOOH) net media revenue<br />

upwards in <strong>2016</strong>, and this area of the<br />

market now represents 40.2% of total<br />

OOH media revenue, up from 28.4%<br />

for the previous period last year.<br />

The digital transformation is undeniable<br />

and the rising share of net revenue<br />

attributed to DOOH is proof of the<br />

direction we are all heading.<br />

We know that our growth is propelled<br />

by many factors, and while our<br />

expanding digital capabilities are<br />

paramount, so too is our channel’s<br />

ability to reach large audiences. It is<br />

a fact that as a result of urbanisation<br />

OOH audiences are growing faster<br />

than the population. From 2010<br />

to <strong>2016</strong>, OOH audiences grew by<br />

20.3%, compared to the population<br />

growth of 13% for the same period.<br />

In this world of fragmentation, the<br />

age-old brand values of high visibility<br />

and impact remain testament to why<br />

OOH continues to catch the eyes of<br />

busy commuters, therefore continuing<br />

to appeal to advertisers. But we<br />

mustn’t forget our channel’s capacity<br />

to support memorable campaigns, big<br />

and small, that are driven by vision,<br />

ideas and creativity. This is certainly<br />

the case for the <strong>OMA</strong>’s <strong>2016</strong> Creative<br />

Collection Competition Grand Prix<br />

winner: the University of Melbourne’s<br />

Made Possible by Melbourne campaign.<br />

The impressive, world-changing work<br />

of researchers from the University<br />

of Melbourne was the centrepiece<br />

of an outdoor exhibition that used<br />

a number of innovative and creative<br />

executions via our OOH formats.<br />

As a channel that is unable to be turned<br />

off or blocked, OOH is unrivalled as<br />

the ultimate broadcaster. For us it<br />

is not just about advertising goods<br />

and services, as an industry we are<br />

committed to providing OOH signs as<br />

a platform for amplifying messages for<br />

arts, sports and charitable organisations,<br />

as well as crucial community and<br />

awareness raising campaigns.<br />

In <strong>2016</strong>, we saw many examples of how<br />

our industry is using the power of OOH<br />

for good, with our members collectively<br />

contributing nearly $26 million in<br />

support of over 200 beneficiaries<br />

throughout the year. For the eighth<br />

consecutive year, the industry<br />

supported National Missing Persons<br />

Week, partnering with the Australian<br />

Federal Police in a week-long national<br />

campaign, and donating over $984,000<br />

in media space and production costs.<br />

The significant contributions our<br />

industry continues to make to the<br />

community, government, and to our<br />

cities, ultimately benefits us all. OOH<br />

remains a considerable revenue stream<br />

for government with over 50% of OOH<br />

revenue returned in rent and taxes<br />

to government and landlords around<br />

the country. 1 We continue to deliver<br />

essential services and savings to our<br />

cities by building and maintaining<br />

public infrastructure with a replacement<br />

value of $352 million, including<br />

bicycles, bins, bus shelters, kiosks,<br />

park benches, pedestrian bridges,<br />

public toilets and telephone booths.<br />

Furthermore, OOH is continually being<br />

upgraded and updated with new<br />

technology, providing digital utility<br />

such as WiFi and wayfinding services,<br />

benefitting the community at large.<br />

In 2014, 89% of Australia’s population<br />

lived in urban areas. UNICEF predicts<br />

that by 2050 the population will<br />

be 94% urbanised and Sydney will<br />

be home to eight million people.<br />

I believe OOH can be an ally in<br />

addressing some of the numerous<br />

challenges in planning for that city.<br />

INDIRECT CONTRIBUTION<br />

OOH already has a significant part to<br />

play in the ecosystem of our cities, yet<br />

we believe we will continue to play<br />

an increasingly more vital role into<br />

the future. As we lean more towards<br />

technological solutions in OOH, we<br />

will become providers of even more<br />

utilities, services and experiences for<br />

people traversing and transacting in<br />

our reconsidered and renewed urban<br />

spaces. Smart OOH advertising will<br />

play a part in making our future cities<br />

more sustainable and liveable.<br />

share with each passing year, as the<br />

channel adjusts and provides for the<br />

growing needs of our clients, community<br />

and our changing city landscape.<br />

I congratulate the <strong>OMA</strong> and MOVE<br />

teams for their boundless energy<br />

and unwavering commitment in<br />

representing the OOH industry.<br />

Their creativity, intelligent approach<br />

and hard work continues to ensure we<br />

remain an informative, approachable<br />

and collaborative industry.<br />

The last few years have seen<br />

tremendous growth for the industry<br />

and I am convinced that we have the<br />

ability to grow further in the coming<br />

years. In a climate of great change,<br />

OOH stands to gain more market<br />

Leading the charge | SECTION 03<br />

A message from the CEO<br />

10<br />

When I joined the<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> in 2010, an area<br />

of business that was<br />

new to me, I had no<br />

idea of the incredible<br />

journey I was to<br />

embark on.<br />

Fast-forward seven years and the<br />

advertising poster – big, small,<br />

traditional or digital – now holds<br />

a special place in my heart.<br />

It is rare to work in an industry that<br />

not only provides so much in the way<br />

of growth, innovation and success, but<br />

that also allows us to be generous,<br />

to give back, and to use our business<br />

for good. These three pillars of<br />

innovation, growth and generosity<br />

are what motivate me each day.<br />

Given how prominently it sits in<br />

our community, on our streets, and<br />

most importantly, near our kids, we<br />

are acutely aware of the power of<br />

OOH. It is a balancing act between<br />

representing and pursuing the<br />

business needs of our members, our<br />

advertisers and our economy, working<br />

closely with local, state and federal<br />

government to ensure that we comply<br />

with regulatory and self-regulatory<br />

commitments, and being respectful<br />

of prevailing community standards.<br />

Relationship building is therefore a<br />

huge part of our role here at the <strong>OMA</strong><br />

and will remain our key focus into<br />

2017. We continue to work closely<br />

with our colleagues at the Advertising<br />

Standards Bureau (ASB), the Australian<br />

Association of National Advertisers<br />

(AANA), The Communications Council<br />

and the ABAC Responsible Alcohol<br />

Marketing Scheme to ensure that the<br />

industry’s system of self-regulation<br />

delivers high standards of compliance<br />

with industry codes of practice.<br />

We work hard to honour the selfregulatory<br />

codes that we have<br />

developed or to which we are<br />

signatories. In <strong>2016</strong>, the <strong>OMA</strong><br />

introduced a new code, the<br />

AANA Wagering Advertising and<br />

Marketing Communication Code,<br />

bringing the total number of codes<br />

to which we adhere to 16.<br />

By working together with industry<br />

and government, through providing<br />

content training and developing tools<br />

such as the <strong>OMA</strong>’s Concept Advisory<br />

Service, we are better communicating<br />

and enforcing our Code of Ethics. We<br />

are pleased to report that since 2011<br />

when the code was breached eight<br />

times, no more than two complaints<br />

have since been found to breach the<br />

Code of Ethics in any given year.<br />

In <strong>2016</strong>, Outdoor advertising made up<br />

5.49% of total advertising complaints<br />

to the ASB. Our track record speaks<br />

for itself and the percentage of<br />

complaints relating to OOH has<br />

almost halved since 2010. We are very<br />

proud of this, especially considering<br />

our industry runs over 30,000<br />

campaigns nationally each year.<br />

OOH’s ability to deliver the biggest<br />

audience via the power of the poster,<br />

while leveraging leading edge<br />

technologies that reach consumers<br />

faster and in more engaging ways, is<br />

undeniable. While print media struggles<br />

to adapt to technology, TV competes<br />

with live streaming and on-demand<br />

services, and online struggles with the<br />

proof of its metrics and ad blocking,<br />

OOH continues to become more and<br />

more relevant by integrating digital<br />

and online into our existing channels.<br />

As OOH becomes more established<br />

in the city landscape – creating and<br />

enhancing public spaces – and as our<br />

populations grow, we know that our<br />

signs will be about more than just<br />

advertising, they will also deliver data.<br />

People want to live in vibrant, connected<br />

and accessible cities, and the <strong>OMA</strong>’s<br />

<strong>2016</strong> Future Cities conference addressed<br />

this by bringing together city thinkers<br />

and culture creators to help discuss the<br />

link between cities of the future and the<br />

utility OOH can provide to build them.<br />

A big focus for the <strong>OMA</strong> in 2017 and<br />

beyond will be calling on the new<br />

collaborative relationships we’ve<br />

built with government regulators<br />

to find and implement smart-city<br />

solutions that benefit us all.<br />

OOH is the ultimate canvas for creativity.<br />

Selected from over 150 campaigns, the<br />

University of Melbourne’s Made Possible<br />

by Melbourne campaign was named<br />

the <strong>2016</strong> <strong>OMA</strong> Creative Collection<br />

Grand Prix winner. The campaign<br />

was undoubtedly the best example<br />

of how OOH can be used by smart<br />

advertisers to engage audiences across<br />

multiple OOH platforms, complement<br />

mobile, and create an interactive<br />

experience that immerses audiences.


Our people matter and our members<br />

are at the heart of all that we do.<br />

We continue to work closely, and<br />

regularly, with the <strong>OMA</strong> and MOVE<br />

Board and committee members to<br />

ensure the success of our outputs,<br />

and ultimately, the industry.<br />

Thank you to our industry peers and<br />

members for your support throughout<br />

<strong>2016</strong>. Only with your knowledge<br />

sharing, generosity, hard work and<br />

honesty can we work together to<br />

build a better platform for business.<br />

And thank you to the <strong>OMA</strong> and<br />

MOVE teams. You indeed live up<br />

to our values of being spirited and<br />

smart with tons of humour and<br />

heart. It was a hectic year but each<br />

of you made it seem like a breeze.<br />

OOH is dominating a unique space.<br />

There is no other media channel<br />

that offers the immediacy and<br />

flexibility of digital alongside the<br />

power and scale of traditional print,<br />

What’s the future of Out of Home?<br />

Steve O’Connor<br />

JCDECAUX<br />

“Through the supply of smart infrastructure with embedded technologies, Outdoor<br />

advertising providers are playing an increasingly important role in the shaping<br />

of cities and public spaces, revolutionising the relationship between residents<br />

and the urban environment. This creates an opportunity for brands, in today's<br />

fragmented media world, to catch and maintain the attention of consumers,<br />

understand their needs, and be more inventive and engaging than ever before.”<br />

“Out of Home can expect a sustained<br />

period of growth. However, the strongest<br />

growth will be directed to categories<br />

with strong underlying audiences that<br />

can leverage digital and mobile. Brands<br />

will look to use contextual relevance,<br />

location and have the ability to bring<br />

their own data to deliver more precise<br />

messaging to the right audiences.<br />

With more cross channel partnerships,<br />

data will sit at the heart of everything. It<br />

will be the smart media players who use<br />

that data to inform and drive their own<br />

businesses, and that of their clients.”<br />

“There’s never been a more exciting<br />

time to be involved in the Out of<br />

Home (OOH) industry. We are riding<br />

a wave of greater interest in OOH<br />

advertising as clients look to bolster<br />

their brand and improve advertising<br />

cut-through. Improvements in<br />

technology, smarter advertising<br />

techniques and a better client offering<br />

all point to a brighter future.”<br />

“There is no question that the future<br />

of Out of Home (OOH) is bright.<br />

With a growing audience spending<br />

more time away from home, and our<br />

ability to utilise smart data, I believe<br />

advertisers are just at the beginning<br />

of unlocking the true future potential<br />

of OOH. Providing even deeper<br />

engagement opportunities with the<br />

right audiences is just the beginning.”

“We all should have an optimistic view<br />

of Out of Home’s (OOH) increasing<br />

role in advertisers’ media selection.<br />

As disruption increases for most media,<br />

decreasing its ability to reach audiences,<br />

OOH is well positioned to continue<br />

to deliver increasing audiences with<br />

existing and developing products.<br />

The opportunity to extend our products<br />

outside traditional OOH is real and will<br />

only increase as technology improves.”<br />

“The future of Out of Home (OOH)<br />

involves further multi-platform<br />

integration, engaging and relevant<br />

content creation, and rich data and<br />

analytics capabilities that will see OOH<br />

transition from being one of the fastest<br />

growing media channels to an even<br />

more integral partner for advertisers<br />

in the wider multi-media landscape."<br />

“I can’t think of a better time to work in<br />

the Outdoor media industry, however,<br />

I’m just as excited by the fact the<br />

long-term outlook for the sector is<br />

extremely positive. Digitisation and<br />

innovation combined with the rapidly<br />

changing media landscape will only<br />

see the Out of Home media categories<br />

relevance continue to strengthen for<br />

years to come.”<br />

Contributions to<br />

the economy<br />

While we are an industry of advertisers, we are also conscious of our<br />

responsibility to the community within which our medium resides. A fair<br />

portion of our time is focussed on the core business of advertising, but a great<br />

deal of work goes on behind-the-scenes to ensure we remain committed to the<br />

community at large and that we give back in a significant and worthwhile way.<br />

16<br />

Out of Home (OOH)<br />

continues to make<br />

an important and<br />

growing contribution<br />

to Australia’s economy<br />

and to our cities that<br />

ultimately benefits<br />

us all.<br />

Research undertaken in <strong>2016</strong> identified<br />

several branches of OOH growth and<br />

established a crucial fact: the community<br />

and Australian governments at all<br />

levels benefit from OOH advertising.<br />

OOH IS GROWING GDP AND JOBS<br />

Each year, OOH contributes close<br />

to $647 million to Australia’s<br />

Gross Domestic Profit (GDP) and<br />

supports approximately 3,100 fulltime<br />

equivalent (FTE) jobs. 1<br />

OOH IS HOME GROWN<br />

The majority of OOH media companies,<br />

four of which are ASX listed, are<br />

Australian owned and operated, with<br />

profits going back into the Australian<br />

economy and communities. OOH is<br />

hyper-local by nature, and with the<br />

rise of global digital media giants,<br />

OOH is increasingly important to<br />

local advertising and advertisers.<br />

OOH IS GIVING BACK TO<br />

GOVERNMENTS<br />

The industry provides a revenue<br />

stream to government, returning<br />

$1 in every $2 of revenue in rent<br />

and taxes to government and other<br />

landlords. 2 This revenue generated<br />

from advertising on sites leased from<br />

government goes directly to funding<br />

roads and road safety campaigns.<br />

OOH broadcasts government messages.<br />

It is the channel government trusts<br />

to broadcast community messages,<br />

spending up to $35 million on<br />

OOH campaigns each year.<br />

The OOH industry adheres to a<br />

robust system of self-regulation<br />

for advertising content. This saves<br />

government from having to manage<br />

or fund a regulatory system.<br />

OOH delivers essential services and<br />

savings. OOH built and maintains public<br />

infrastructure with a replacement<br />

value of $352 million, including<br />

bicycles, bins, bus shelters, kiosks,<br />

park benches, pedestrian bridges,<br />

public toilets and telephone booths.<br />

OOH IS HELPING TO BUILD<br />

SMART CITIES<br />

More than 17,500 pieces of<br />

public infrastructure delivered<br />

by the OOH industry make our<br />

cities more user-friendly.<br />

The OOH industry is investing in<br />

innovation and smart city technology.<br />

OOH is continually being fitted with<br />

new technology, providing digital utility<br />

such as WiFi and wayfinding services,<br />

benefiting the community at large.<br />

The innovation investment is paying<br />

for itself, with digital OOH making<br />

up to 40.2% of revenue in <strong>2016</strong>.

Partnering with the Australian Federal<br />

Police (AFP) in July <strong>2016</strong>, the <strong>OMA</strong><br />

supported a week-long national<br />

Out of Home (OOH) campaign.<br />

NMPW aims to raise awareness about<br />

the issues and impacts associated<br />

with missing persons cases. Each<br />

year, more than 35,000 people<br />

are reported missing. While 95%<br />

are found within a short period of<br />

time, there remain approximately<br />

1,600 long-term missing persons.<br />

39.5 million contacts were made during<br />

the week-long campaign, resulting in<br />

55 direct Crime Stoppers reports, and<br />

one long term New South Wales (NSW)<br />

The Out of Home (OOH) industry is a long-standing supporter of a wide<br />

range of not-for-profit organisations and continues to be perfectly positioned<br />

In <strong>2016</strong>, <strong>OMA</strong> members<br />

Self-regulation and<br />

advertising content<br />

With great exposure<br />

comes great<br />

responsibility, and<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> members are<br />

committed to meeting<br />

community standards.<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong>’s Code of Ethics is a set of<br />

voluntary principles that defines the<br />

industry’s standards for doing business<br />

with advertisers and regulators, and its<br />

responsibilities towards the community<br />

and the environment. The Code of<br />

Ethics supplements the obligations<br />

that members are already required<br />

to comply with under existing laws,<br />

including Federal and State law.<br />

members with clear guidance about the<br />

16 self-regulatory industry codes<br />

and how best to comply with<br />

them. Australia’s system of selfregulated<br />

advertising is highly<br />

successful. However, the decision<br />

on what is acceptable advertising<br />

content can be a subjective one.<br />

SELF-REGULATION<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> CODE OF ETHICS<br />

Out of Home (OOH) is an incredibly<br />

powerful medium, a prominent fixture<br />

for all to see – where we live, shop<br />

and play. You can’t turn OOH off and<br />

you can’t change the channel. This is<br />

why it is important for the industry<br />

to have its own Code of Ethics*<br />

to ensure that members operate<br />

their businesses responsibly.<br />

CONTENT TRAINING<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> conducts a regular program<br />

of Content Training for members<br />

in conjunction with the Advertising<br />

Standards Bureau (ASB), the Australian<br />

Association of National Advertisers<br />

(AANA), The Communications Council<br />

and the Alcohol Beverages Advertising<br />

key part of the industry’s demonstration<br />

of its commitment to providing<br />

While <strong>OMA</strong> members don’t always<br />

create the advertisements placed on<br />

their signs, they do take responsibility<br />

for what is displayed. The <strong>OMA</strong> works<br />

with the ASB to ensure OOH advertising<br />

meets prevailing community standards<br />

and attitudes. The <strong>OMA</strong> supports<br />

the complaints procedure managed<br />

by the ASB, and also works with the<br />

that meets community standards<br />

and the self-regulatory codes.<br />

OOH is the ultimate broadcaster – its<br />

audience includes people of every age,<br />

race, gender and religion. The 2011<br />

Federal Government Inquiry into the<br />

Regulation of Outdoor Advertising<br />

confirmed to the industry, and the <strong>OMA</strong>,<br />

that it must be especially considerate<br />

of the way in which it captures its<br />

massive audience’s attention.<br />

The Inquiry also showed the <strong>OMA</strong><br />

that the self-regulatory codes are<br />

only effective if fully understood by<br />

all members. Since that time, the<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> has taken responsibility for<br />

this and has established a program<br />

of education and advertising prevetting<br />

initiatives including:<br />

• Content Training for members<br />

• Content Review Policy, including<br />

a copy advice service<br />

• Concept Advisory Service<br />

for advertisers and creative<br />

agencies at the early stage of<br />

a campaign’s development.<br />

CONTENT REVIEW POLICY AND<br />

CONCEPT ADVISORY SERVICE<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> developed a Content Review<br />

Policy, including a copy advice service,<br />

that sees members seeking advice from<br />

the <strong>OMA</strong>. Members send over<br />

250 pieces of creative per year.<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong>’s Concept Advisory<br />

Service exists to offer advertisers<br />

and creative agencies free advice<br />

at the early stage of a campaign’s<br />

development about the suitability of<br />

their content for OOH advertising.<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> Code of Ethics states that<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> members cannot endorse the<br />

display of an advertisement that is<br />

likely to breach the AANA Code of<br />

Ethics, and therefore the Concept<br />

Advisory Service helps to eliminate<br />

the likelihood of a breach by gauging<br />

content and determining whether<br />

the proposed advertisement:<br />

• Treats sex, sexuality and<br />

nudity with sensitivity<br />

• Contains violence that cannot<br />

be justified in its context<br />

• Uses language suitable<br />

for a broad audience.<br />

In <strong>2016</strong>, the <strong>OMA</strong> pre-vetted 261 pieces<br />

of advertising creative, rejecting<br />

29 advertisements and seeking<br />

modifications to another to 52. Once<br />

members seek the <strong>OMA</strong>’s content<br />

advice, they must comply with it.<br />

Taking our responsibility seriously | SECTION 06<br />

The aim of the <strong>OMA</strong><br />

is to build a more<br />

sustainable industry<br />

for its members<br />

while advocating<br />

for regulation that<br />

is fair and equitable<br />

for governments, the<br />

community and<br />

the Out of Home<br />

(OOH) industry.<br />

COMPLAINTS<br />

The vast majority of advertisements<br />

that run on OOH, and other advertising<br />

channels, are not complained about;<br />

of those that are, most are not found<br />

to breach any codes. Since the 2011<br />

Federal Government Parliamentary<br />

Inquiry, the <strong>OMA</strong> has seen a significant<br />

reduction in the number of upheld<br />

complaints, particularly in the area<br />

of Sex, Sexuality and Nudity. <strong>OMA</strong><br />

members have gone from eight<br />

breaches in 2011 (before our Content<br />

Training Program commenced) to eight<br />

breaches in total from 2012 to <strong>2016</strong>.<br />

Considering <strong>OMA</strong> members display<br />

over 30,000 campaigns nationally<br />

each year, this equates to less than<br />

1% of all campaigns breaching any<br />

codes. This record alone is proof of a<br />

mature industry that takes its social<br />

responsibility seriously and understands<br />

the role it plays in the public domain.<br />

While the industry works hard to<br />

continually improve its track record,<br />

all complaints and breaches become<br />

learning tools for the <strong>OMA</strong> and its<br />

members. They demonstrate that the<br />

system of self-regulation is working<br />

and give the <strong>OMA</strong> the opportunity to<br />

reflect on where it can be improved.<br />

For example, a single breach in <strong>2016</strong> led<br />

to the <strong>OMA</strong> introducing a new policy<br />

that requires all advertisements with<br />

modifications proposed by <strong>OMA</strong> after a<br />

content review, to be resubmitted to the<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> for final approval prior to posting.<br />

<strong>2016</strong> saw some state governments<br />

propose additional regulation on<br />

various types of advertising content.<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> believes given the success<br />

of the self-regulatory system, public<br />

resources would be more effectively<br />

spent on education programs to address<br />

significant non-media influences<br />

such as peers, parents and teachers.<br />

As Todd Sampson from the Gruen<br />

Transfer on ABC television once said,<br />

“We can’t child-proof the world, we<br />

have to world proof our children.”<br />

Here we can see the <strong>OMA</strong>’s Concept Advisory Service at work – the before and<br />

after of OOH advertising artwork as a result of having gone through a review.


the design, location and operation<br />

of the signs is dictated by State and<br />

Local Government regulations. The<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> is an important partner in the<br />

development and application of these<br />

regulations, and has developed close<br />

working relationships with State Road<br />

and Planning Authorities to ensure<br />

that regulations for roadside signage<br />

are safe, flexible, and evidence-based.<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> also works closely with<br />

State and Local governments to<br />

ensure that guidelines are not overly<br />

restrictive, and allow flexibility<br />

for digital signage to offer more<br />

utility and urban renewal to local<br />

government precincts into the future.<br />

In <strong>2016</strong>, the <strong>OMA</strong> made a total of<br />

14 submissions to State, Territory,<br />

Creative Collection Competition<br />

<strong>2016</strong> Grand Prix Winner<br />

The University of Melbourne’s Made Possible by Melbourne<br />

campaign was named the <strong>2016</strong> Creative Collection<br />

Competition Grand Prix winner, with an honourable<br />

mention going to Bonds The Boys.<br />

CAMPAIGN: MADE POSSIBLE BY MELBOURNE<br />

ADVERTISER: UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE<br />

The Made Possible by Melbourne<br />

campaign was the University of<br />

Melbourne’s <strong>2016</strong> brand campaign,<br />

designed to showcase to the public<br />

the world-changing research taking<br />

place at the University of Melbourne,<br />

and the real world impact it creates.<br />

To achieve this, the city of Melbourne<br />

was used as a platform for showcasing<br />

a free exhibition of 14 specially<br />

designed and manufactured OOH<br />

installations across the CBD, which<br />

used models and interactive elements<br />

to enhance public engagement<br />

with each research story.<br />

Virtual maps, free cycling tours,<br />

a pop-up cafe and a digital audio<br />

tour, telling a short story about each<br />

research program and the academics<br />

behind it, accompanied the exhibit.<br />

The installations also invited the<br />

public to explore more about the<br />

research via the University’s digital<br />

story-telling platform, Pursuit.<br />

Creativity<br />

“Rule breaking and brave,<br />

there was one clear winner<br />

as OOH proves it can<br />

play in the content space,<br />

too. When the world is<br />

going mad for thumbstopping<br />

three second<br />

break-through technologies,<br />

innovative messaging, and<br />

creative executions.<br />

OOH continues to retain its long-standing brand<br />

attributes, including high visibility, high engagement,<br />

and cost effectiveness. But with advancements in<br />

technology, these brand values are extending to include<br />

so much more for advertisers – greater creativity and<br />

innovation, immediacy and flexibility, as well as utility.<br />

Our ongoing transformation | SECTION 07<br />

Technology and<br />

innovation<br />

The digital revolution continues to breathe new life into Out of Home (OOH).<br />

It’s an exciting time<br />

to be part of the<br />

OOH industry.<br />

While the digital revolution is<br />

fragmenting many other media<br />

channels, the opposite is true for OOH.<br />

The demand for immediacy and flexibility<br />

continued to drive digital OOH (DOOH)<br />

net media revenue upwards in <strong>2016</strong>, with<br />

this area of the market representing<br />

40.2% of total OOH media revenue,<br />

up from 28.4% for the previous year.<br />

Technology has strengthened the impact<br />

of OOH, taking it from a passive medium,<br />

to one that can be fully interactive; a<br />

potential one-stop shop for promotion,<br />

engagement, and transaction.<br />

With consumers demanding to be<br />

connected with the world on their<br />

terms, DOOH is becoming more<br />

relevant than ever before. By aligning<br />

with mobile and digital technologies,<br />

advertisers are now able to connect<br />

with their audience anywhere, anytime.<br />

The types of innovations that have<br />

emerged over the years include:<br />

• Live feeds<br />

• Near Field Communications (NFC)<br />

and Quick Response (QR) codes<br />

• Beacon technology<br />

• Mobile and social media integration<br />

• Day-parting<br />

• Facial Recognition<br />

• Geo-targeting<br />

• Touch-screen<br />

• Tap and Go payments (including<br />

donations and e-commerce)<br />

• 3D and Augmented Reality<br />

AUT<strong>OMA</strong>TED TRANSACTION<br />

PLATFORM<br />

The industry continues to look<br />

for ways to make the planning of<br />

OOH easier with the development<br />

of the Automated Transaction<br />

Platform (ATP): a one-stop hub<br />

for the buying and selling of OOH<br />

in Australia across all formats.<br />

In March, eight companies were<br />

selected from an Expression of<br />

Interest process to provide a more<br />

detailed response in a Request<br />

for Proposal from the <strong>OMA</strong>.<br />

Following extensive reviews of their<br />

The opportunity for advertisers to<br />

thanks to developments in OOH<br />

technology in more locations around<br />

Australia. <strong>OMA</strong> members continued to<br />

push the boundaries, searching for new<br />

and innovative ways of incorporating<br />

After deliberation, the <strong>OMA</strong><br />

great job of really<br />

being adaptive and<br />

transformative. To me<br />

Out of Home is still<br />

all about being a mass<br />

Future Cities conference<br />

UNICEF predicts that<br />

by 2050 a whopping<br />

94% of Australia’s<br />

population will live<br />

in cities. So what does<br />

this mean for Out of<br />

Home (OOH)?<br />

As our populations grow and become<br />

more urbanised, OOH is becoming more<br />

established in the city landscape.<br />

The OOH industry will play an important<br />

role in shaping and activating urban<br />

spaces by investing in innovation and<br />

smart city technology, enhancing<br />

what our signs can offer advertisers,<br />

governments, and the public, and<br />

ultimately making our future cities<br />

more sustainable and liveable.<br />

In April <strong>2016</strong>, the <strong>OMA</strong> hosted the<br />

inaugural Future Cities conference<br />

series in Melbourne, Queensland,<br />

and Sydney. Future Cities brought<br />

together representatives from<br />

business, government, the arts, and<br />

the community to openly discuss<br />

the future of Australian cities, and to<br />

encourage partnership and collaboration<br />

in order to create better public<br />

places that we can all benefit from.<br />

The aim of the talks was to show the<br />

vital part OOH plays in cities, and how<br />

that role will grow as digital technology<br />

advances. Future Cities provided an<br />

opportunity for the OOH industry to<br />

demonstrate itself as forward thinking,<br />

and to highlight the utility OOH can,<br />

and does, offer to cities through<br />

WiFi networks, emergency messaging,<br />

intelligent use of data, and more.<br />

ATTENDEES<br />

To an audience of over 260 people,<br />

across three cities in as many days,<br />

the <strong>OMA</strong> introduced a range of<br />

speakers talking on topics regarding<br />

the development and changing nature<br />

of our cities. The audiences consisted<br />

of representatives from key Ministers’<br />

offices, key local councils, transport<br />

authorities, the Planning Institute of<br />

Australia, planning authorities, as well as<br />

media and creative agencies, advertisers,<br />

planners, consultants, design companies,<br />

universities and <strong>OMA</strong> members.<br />

THE RESULTS<br />

There was healthy engagement and<br />

conversation on social media with<br />

300 posts made using the event<br />

hashtag – #<strong>OMA</strong>FutureCities – resulting<br />

in reach to an audience of 162,886 and<br />

overall growth to <strong>OMA</strong> social channels.<br />

The Sydney event was filmed and<br />

presentations from the event are<br />

available on the <strong>OMA</strong> website.<br />

As a result of the success of this<br />

inaugural event the <strong>OMA</strong> will consider<br />

holding a conference of this type semiregularly<br />

in an effort to promote the<br />

OOH industry’s place in future cities.<br />

MOVE <strong>2016</strong> data update<br />

Out of Home (OOH) audiences are growing faster than the population as<br />

a result of urbanisation. From 2010 to <strong>2016</strong>, OOH audiences grew by<br />

20.3% compared to the population growth for the same period of 13%.<br />

OOH audiences<br />

are growing.<br />

The <strong>2016</strong> data update revealed that the<br />

national audience for OOH has grown<br />

by 2.8%, year-on-year, across the five<br />

mainland capital cities measured by<br />

MOVE, and across the suite of OOH<br />

formats, marking a sixth consecutive<br />

year of growth. The <strong>2016</strong> update also<br />

saw 200,000 more people, on average,<br />

in OOH environments each day. OOH<br />

can now reach 12.4 million people<br />

each day, who are making a total of<br />

52 million trips daily. The numbers<br />

result in an increase in exposure<br />

for the vast majority of the 80,300<br />

advertising faces measured by MOVE.<br />

The <strong>2016</strong> data update also incorporated<br />

new data including: updated Australian<br />

Bureau of Statistics (2014); population<br />

and employment levels across more<br />

than 17,800 separate travel zones;<br />

changes to transport infrastructure;<br />

changes to public transport routes; new<br />

signs; and updates to trip attractors in<br />

each travel zone, including shopping<br />

centres and school enrolments.<br />

Also included in this update was a<br />

new format – the measurement of<br />

Sydney Light Rail (advertising on<br />

the inside and outside of light rail).<br />

The number of locations measured by<br />

MOVE has also seen a massive increase.<br />

MOVE now measures 504 shopping<br />

centres, a 236% increase from its launch<br />

in 2010. This scenario is typical across<br />

the OOH industry, where development<br />

in existing Outdoor formats by MOVE<br />

members is creating more opportunities<br />

for clients to connect with customers.<br />

Industry research<br />

Out of Home (OOH)<br />

gives brands a primal<br />

advantage.<br />

NEW BIOMETRIC RESEARCH<br />

In August <strong>2016</strong>, the <strong>OMA</strong>, in partnership<br />

with independent research agency<br />

Hoop Group, released the findings<br />

of a new state-of-the-art biometric<br />

research study* into understanding<br />

consumers inside and out of the home.<br />

This research showed that, as human<br />

beings, it is in our nature to be more<br />

alert when out of home, and revealed<br />

two new insights for the industry to<br />

take note of: that consumers are two<br />

times more alert and likely to act on<br />

messages than compared to inside the<br />

home, and they are 2.5 times more alert<br />

compared to screen time at home.<br />

These new findings, combined with<br />

the immediacy, flexibility, scale and<br />

impact that OOH already offers is<br />

a huge benefit for advertisers.<br />

“What’s significant about this research is<br />

that it captured people in their natural<br />

environments, giving an accurate read on their<br />

levels of arousal. The research shows we are<br />

more aroused when we’re out of home – our<br />

antennae are up. There’s more to react to,<br />

therefore we’re more likely to act. We’re wired<br />

to scan the environment for events that can<br />

impact on us or things that are linked to our<br />

goals. It’s a primal thing – survive and thrive.<br />

This is important news for marketers as we<br />

know arousal drives attention and memory<br />

encoding, both of which are key factors that<br />

underpin advertising message impact.”<br />

Performance<br />

Out of Home<br />

(OOH) net revenue<br />

up 15.8% to an<br />

all-time high of<br />

$789.5 million.<br />

REVENUE RESULTS<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> generates performance<br />

reporting for the OOH industry<br />

through the compilation of revenue<br />

results and share of advertising<br />

spend for its members, which<br />

comprise 90% of the industry.<br />

Once again, the OOH industry revenue<br />

reached an incredible high, experiencing<br />

its seventh year of consecutive growth<br />

in <strong>2016</strong>, posting a 15.8% increase on<br />

net revenue year-on-year, taking the<br />

industry’s revenue to $789.5 million,<br />

up from $682.1 million in 2015.<br />

This topped off a third year of doubledigit<br />

growth, which saw consistent<br />

year-on-year increases, starting strongly<br />

with a 19.1% year-on-year increase for<br />

quarter one, followed nicely with<br />

18.2% year-on-year increase in quarter<br />

two, 14.8% year-on-year increase in<br />

quarter three, and finishing with a<br />

12.4% year-on-year increase in<br />

quarter four.<br />

The demand for immediacy and<br />

flexibility continued to drive digital<br />

OOH net media revenue upwards in<br />

<strong>2016</strong>, with this area of the market<br />

representing 40.2% of total OOH<br />

revenue, up from 28.4% for the same<br />

MEDIA AGENCY ATTITUDES<br />

ABOUT THE INDUSTRY<br />

The Media i industry survey collates<br />

attitudes and opinions on issues that are<br />

affecting the advertising industry and<br />

tracks the sentiments and performance<br />

of agencies, media channels and<br />

media owners’ sales representation.<br />

The latest survey, conducted in<br />

October <strong>2016</strong> – with more than<br />

3,950 respondents – reported<br />

that the OOH industry was rated<br />

as follows by agency personnel:<br />

• Revenue growth in <strong>2016</strong>: 2nd<br />

after Mobile Digital<br />

• Changing with the times: 2nd<br />

after Mobile Digital<br />

• Engaging consumers: 3rd after<br />

Mobile Digital and Desktop Digital<br />

PEOPLE<br />

The survey also gauged the feelings<br />

and perceptions of people working on<br />

the media-owner side of the industry in<br />

the following media channel categories:<br />

Digital/Online, Magazines, Newspapers,<br />

Outdoor/Cinema, Radio, and TV.<br />

For the fourth year in a row, people<br />

working in OOH were notably more<br />

optimistic and positive about the<br />

industry, feeling valued and enjoying<br />

their workplace culture. Survey<br />

results showed that of the 391 OOH<br />

respondents, 80% rated themselves<br />

as either happy or very happy. All<br />

those happy vibes mean they also<br />

feel the most rewarded for their work<br />

(77%), they enjoy their organisation’s<br />

culture (91%) and are least likely to be<br />

actively looking for another job (19%).<br />

In a show of tremendous support<br />

for the OOH sector as an appealing<br />

area for employment, as well as<br />

professional experience and growth,<br />

Outdoor/Cinema was the only channel<br />

to show improvement in channel<br />

attractiveness in the last year.<br />

Across all media channels, OOH teams<br />

rated the highest on all scores:<br />

391<br />

<strong>OMA</strong> membership<br />

In <strong>2016</strong> the <strong>OMA</strong> had a total of 34 member companies representing<br />

approximately 90% of the Out of Home (OOH) industry in Australia.<br />

The <strong>OMA</strong> serves its members by promoting the industry and<br />

developing constructive relations with primary stakeholders.<br />

Becoming an <strong>OMA</strong><br />

member is more than<br />

just about membership.<br />

It is about joining a community<br />

of friends and colleagues, sharing<br />

experiences and supporting one another<br />

individually and collectively as an<br />

industry. With a relatively small share of<br />

the media pie, it is in our best interest<br />

to work together to build the industry’s<br />

profile through research and insights,<br />

improve and transform what we offer<br />

with new technology and innovation,<br />

and to nurture our future growth by<br />

ensuring a sustainable approach to all<br />
