The Street to Screen Method

Stop Guessing.
Start Knowing.

Create video with real local creators → run it on social to find what performs → scale the winners to Connected TV. A smarter, cheaper alternative to traditional TV advertising.

You're paying for reach you can't measure.
We change that.

Traditional TV burns budget on every airing — regardless of whether it drives results. Street to Screen flips the model: test cheap on social, find what converts, then put real money behind only the proven winners.

Real creators. Real shoots. Real ads.

Our Proven Method

The Street to Screen Process

Six steps that take you from concept to connected TV — with data validating every dollar spent along the way.

01
🎯

We start with your business goals

Campaign Strategy

We sit down with you to build campaign concepts that align with your upcoming initiatives, seasonal promotions, and business priorities. Every shoot has a purpose tied to a real business outcome.

02
🎬

Real people. Real locations. Real stories.

Creator Shoot

We cast authentic local creators who match your audience — not influencers, real people. They shoot at your location on a phone, the same way your future customers consume content. No scripted commercials.

03
📲

We run it as a targeted paid ad

Social Launch + Paid Boost

Your creator video goes live as a paid ad on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. We add real budget behind it to push it beyond organic reach — targeting the right local audience, trackable from day one.

04
📊

We find out what actually works

Performance Data

We track every concept against real engagement and conversion data. Instead of guessing what resonates, we let the market tell us. The winners rise. The underperformers get replaced.

05
📺

Proven concepts go to the big screen

Scale to CTV

Once a video concept proves itself on social, we produce a CTV version and run it on Hulu, Roku, Peacock, and YouTube TV — reaching broader audiences with messaging that's already been validated by real data.

06
🔁

A system that gets smarter over time

Optimize & Repeat

Every campaign teaches us more about your customer. Landing pages, tracking pixels, and attribution tools close the loop — so each new campaign is more effective than the last.

The Smarter Alternative

Traditional TV vs. Street to Screen

Why more local businesses are shifting their ad budgets.

Traditional TV Advertising

  • High production cost before you know if the concept works
  • Reach is broad — but you can't see who actually watched
  • No data on whether anyone walked in or called
  • Locked into one message for the whole flight
  • Weeks from concept to air
  • Same spend whether it works or not

Street to Screen

  • Low-cost social test before investing in full production
  • Precise targeting — age, location, interests, behaviors
  • Real conversion data: clicks, calls, form fills, foot traffic
  • Swap concepts in real time based on performance
  • From shoot to live ad in days, not weeks
  • Only scale what the data proves works

Built for Business Owners

We Build the Tools That Close the Loop

Every campaign gets custom landing pages and tracking infrastructure — so you know exactly what your ads are doing, not just how many people saw them.

🏗️

Campaign Landing Pages

Each promotion gets its own dedicated landing page — built to convert, matched to your ad creative, and connected to your tracking.

📈

Conversion Tracking

Pixel-level attribution connects ad impressions to real business outcomes — calls, form fills, purchases, and appointments.

🧠

Performance Intelligence

We build a data layer that gets smarter with every campaign — feeding better decisions on creative, targeting, and budget allocation.

Strategic Alignment

We Build Campaigns Around What Matters to Your Business

We don't just make content. We build campaign concepts with you — tied to your promotions, inventory cycles, seasonal pushes, and business milestones.

  • Monthly or quarterly campaign planning sessions
  • Creative concepts matched to key business initiatives
  • Promotional timing aligned with your calendar
  • Multi-channel deployment from one content shoot
  • Continuous creative refresh so ads don't fatigue

The Stat That Matters

User-generated-style content drives far higher conversion rates than polished brand ads.

93% of marketers report UGC-style content outperforms their studio-produced ads. People scroll past polished. They stop for real.

And when you combine it with data...

Businesses that test creative before scaling to CTV see 2–4x better performance from their television spend — because they already know what their audience responds to.

Common Questions

We already run TV ads. Does this replace them?

It can — or it can make them dramatically more effective. Most clients use Street to Screen to test creative on social first, then move the proven winners to CTV (which costs a fraction of traditional TV). The result: you spend less per impression and know your CTV audience has already responded to the message.

How is this different from hiring an influencer?

Influencers sell access to their audience. Creator video ads sell authentic content that runs in your own paid ads. You control the distribution, the targeting, and the data. Follower count is irrelevant.

How fast can we get a video live?

Typically within days of the shoot — not weeks. We handle everything from campaign concept to creator casting to delivery and launch.

What do the landing pages look like?

We build clean, mobile-optimized pages designed to convert — matched to your ad creative, with tracking pixels connected to your ad platforms. You get real attribution, not just impressions.

What platforms do the ads run on?

Social testing happens on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. Once a concept is proven, we scale it to Connected TV on Hulu, Roku, Peacock, and YouTube TV for broader reach.
