Localstars win exclusive contract to provide Thomson Local with compelling video adverts

23 December 2009

Localstars, the UK’s premier video and online display advertising service for small and medium sized businesses, today announced a partnership with Thomson Local as their exclusive supplier of online video adverts. From November, Localstars’ comprehensive video offering will be available to customers of Thomson Local. Thomson Local’s advertisers will be able to upload their own video content, select a library video advert customised for their business or have a bespoke advert filmed in accordance with their specific brief.

Richard Avery, Thomson Local’s General Manager of New Media commented: “We are committed to helping local businesses attract and keep customers. Video advertising is another way we can help deliver quality calls to our advertisers and provide highly relevant local search content on ThomsonLocal.com for our users. Local businesses understand the importance of video advertising; however, until now they have been priced out of the market. Our partnership with Localstars offers our customers a quick, easy and cost-effective answer to achieving TV-quality exposure in their local market.” Localstars is the only UK online video advertising service that offers small and medium sized local businesses the opportunity to create and run their own video or dynamic display adverts on the internet.
