The One-Pager

A two-sided leave-behind for after a meeting, and ammunition for a champion selling internally. US Letter, print-ready.

Telly

Digital in-home

Television sells time inside the show. Telly sells space beside it.

Always on. Never in the way.

Telly is a free television with a second screen. Households get a 55-inch 4K TV at no cost. In exchange, they answer 120+ questions about themselves and accept a second, always-on screen beneath the main one. That second screen is advertising space — permanent, addressable, and clickable. It is not a commercial break. It never interrupts the show, so it is never skipped, never scrolled past, and never the reason someone reaches for the remote.

Three things you can't buy anywhere else

Space, not seconds

Every other television buy rents time inside somebody's programming. This is a permanent placement on a screen that is lit whenever the set is on. Out-of-home economics, in the living room.

A household that told you who it is

120+ declared attributes, volunteered by the household in exchange for the television. Not inferred from what the screen displayed. Not modeled. Asked and answered.

A response that doesn't need a phone

On-screen click, browser and tune-in — plus QR when a mobile handoff is what the campaign needs. The viewer never has to change devices to act.

Which budget it comes from

Telly is usually funded from one of six places. Ask which one is open before proposing a structure.

CTV

Incremental in-home inventory that doesn't compete for attention inside the content.

DOOH / place-based

Everything place-based always wanted, plus the household and on-screen response.

Display

Display in a lit room on a 55-inch screen, with no fraud surface and no banner blindness.

Social / performance

The response mechanics of a social buy, in an environment that isn't hostile.

Retail media

Declared household attributes plus on-screen commerce, off the retailer's own property.

Innovation / test

A different approver, a different threshold, and the fastest path to a first dollar.

What a first campaign looks like

A [length] test at [minimum spend], with [measurement approach] built in from day one — and results shared openly, including anything that doesn't work.
