Connected TV · Minnesota

Your ad on their TV.The lead on your phone.

We put your commercial on the streaming services Minnesota already watches, only in the homes you choose. Then we run everything that turns that view into a booked job.

Sample: a family watches a hockey game on their living-room television. It cuts to a commercial for Your Business, and a phone beside them shows a new lead.

About 43K to 86K homes a month. An estimate; the plan works it out for your zips.

Free. Nobody calls you until you ask for the plan.

One household, one evening

From their TV to your phone, in six steps we run.

Most TV ads stop at the screen. Ours keep going, because we run every step after it too.

  1. 01The ad plays

    Your commercial comes on in their living room.

    Full screen, on the TV, between the shows they already stream. It can't be skipped, and it only runs in the homes you chose.

    Launch runs: Connected TV
  2. 02They search your name

    Later, they pick up the phone and look you up.

    That search is where most TV ads leak money. We run the search ads, the SEO and the Google profile, so the first thing they find is you.

    Launch runs: Search ads, SEO, Google profile
  3. 03They land on your site

    The website gets to the point.

    The offer from the commercial, the phone number and the form, right at the top. No hunting for how to get in touch.

    Launch runs: Website
  4. 04They call

    Someone answers. Every time, any time.

    Krista, our AI receptionist, picks up calls and texts around the clock, answers the questions she knows, and takes down the job for you.

    Launch runs: AI receptionist, 24/7
  5. 05The lead lands

    The lead is on your phone before they hang up.

    Name, number, what they need and where. You call back while they still remember your commercial.

    Launch runs: Lead alerts
  6. 06You see what moved

    Every month, a report in plain English.

    Where the ad ran, how many homes saw it, how many watched to the end, and what moved after it: searches, site visits, calls.

    Launch runs: Monthly report

No commercial yet? Good.

We produce your commercial.

Our production partner films it, built around the offer and the phone number people need to remember. Already have a video you like? We’ll run that instead.

How the whole thing works
The conversion stack

The TV ad is the start. We run everything after it.

A great commercial that sends people to a slow website and an unanswered phone is money on fire. These five layers are why ours turn into booked jobs.

  1. 01

    The screen

    Your commercial on the streaming services they watch, only in your trade area.

  2. 02

    The search

    When they look you up, your ads, your rankings and your Google profile are there first.

  3. 03

    The website

    A site built to turn a visit into a call: the offer, the number and the form at the top.

  4. 04

    The phone

    Krista, the AI receptionist, answers every call and text, day and night, and sends you the lead.

  5. 05

    The follow-through

    Display, geofencing and social keep you in front of the homes that saw the ad.

For every business

Everyone watches TV. So TV works for everyone.

26 kinds of business across 6 industries, each measured on the thing that matters to it.

What to expect

The first ninety days, honestly.

This is the usual pattern, not a promise. It's also what you can hold us to.

  1. Month 1

    The right homes see it, often enough.

    Delivery and frequency, building toward a few views per household. Don’t judge it on leads yet.

  2. Month 2

    People start looking you up.

    Searches for your name and visits to your site usually start moving, when the commercial and the area are right.

  3. Month 3

    Lift is fair to talk about.

    Often 10 to 25% against where you started, on site or store activity, when measurement is set up.

Questions

Connected TV, answered

The things people ask before they work with us — answered the way we'd answer them on a call.

What is Connected TV advertising?

Commercials on the streaming services people watch on their TV: Hulu, Peacock, Tubi, Pluto TV, The Roku Channel, YouTube on TV and more. They play full screen and can't be skipped, like a TV ad, but you choose the households, down to the zip code.

How much do I need to start?

A single-market test that tells you something usually runs $2,500 to $5,000 a month in media. A tight area works at the low end; statewide or several markets needs more. The planner shows what a budget buys in your zips before you talk to anyone.

Do you make the commercial?

Yes. We produce your commercial with our production partner, who films it. If you already have a video you like, we can run that instead.

How will I know it's working?

Month one is about getting the ad in front of the right homes often enough; don't judge it on leads yet. In month two, searches for your name and visits to your site usually start moving. By month three, lift is fair to talk about, often 10 to 25% against where you started when measurement is set up. That is a typical pattern, not a promise, and every month you get a plain-English report.

Is TV only for big brands?

Not anymore. A local business doesn't need the whole country, it needs the right 40,000 households in its trade area. Streaming lets you buy exactly those, by zip code or radius, without paying for the rest of the market.

What else do you do besides TV?

Everything that turns a TV view into a booked job: search ads, SEO, your Google profile, the website, social, and an AI receptionist that answers every call. Most TV ads lose the customer between the screen and the phone; we run that part too.

Put your business on their TV.

Start with the planner, or talk to us. Either way, you get the numbers first.
