TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dabbl, a trustworthy attention marketplace for consumers and brands, launched today to introduce consumers to the marketing ecosystem as equal and respected partners. Brands create unique, interactive campaigns on Dabbl. Consumers choose which Dabbl campaigns they experience, when they want to experience them, and feel good knowing the brands they engage with value their time tangibly and transparently by paying them for it.
“By embracing consumers as partners, rather than as targets, Dabbl creates demand for brand messaging,” said Susan O’Neal, founder & CEO of Dabbl. “For the first time, consumers and the brands they care about have a place to meet as equals, where they can learn about each other, invest in long-term partnerships, and share experiences that benefit them both equally.”
According to the Association of National Advertisers, companies spend $1 trillion a year on marketing in the US – approximately $8,000 per US household. Yet brands struggle to measure the value of that spend, especially as consumers increasingly prioritize uninterrupted content experiences. “Digital marketing may have infinite impression inventory,” said O’Neal. “But a real human’s attention is limited. As competition for that attention increases, brand viewability deteriorates – whether by a few seconds within a video, feed or article, or completely behind an ad-free subscription paywall or ad blocker. Both consumers and brands need a place to meet and share experiences. Dabbl is that place.”
Since launching in August, Dabbl has delivered over 7 million engagements, with each brand campaign enjoying an average 23 seconds of active consumer attention – more than 7x the passive exposure brands get online today. Consumers appreciate having something smart and satisfying to do in their downtime, and on their smartphone. Dabbl also powers ShopRite’s popular Downtime Dollars feature for loyalty customers, the fun way for consumers to interact with their favorite brands while saving money on groceries.
Available now to all brands and consumers in the US.
