DOOH is digital signage used as an advertising medium: screen owners sell airtime to brands.

## How it differs from in-store signage

- **Audience.** DOOH reaches the general public; in-store signage speaks to customers already inside.
- **Business model.** DOOH screen owners earn from selling ad slots.
- **Hardware.** Outdoor DOOH needs high-brightness, weather-rated displays.
