The product

Three ways to deliver: tunnels, zones, background

WilDi Maps is not a single flat-rate product. You pick the tier that matches how local you need to be. All three are GPS-verified per claim — no auction, no exchange rake, no Middleman Tax.

Tunnel

1-mile road strip

Premium

Hyper-local, just-in-time

Lease a one-mile stretch. When a driver enters the strip, they get a just-in-time message — perfect for emergency services, on-route specials, and anything where being right there now beats brand awareness later.

Best for

  • · HVAC, plumbing, water restoration
  • · On-route specials (food, fuel, retail)
  • · Garage door, locksmith, urgent service
Zone

1-square-mile area

Premium

Hyper-local, area-based

Lease a one-square-mile block — not tied to a single road. Catches the residential cluster, retail district, or industrial park where your work actually lives. Same just-in-time delivery as tunnels; different geometry.

Best for

  • · Lawn care, pest control, pool services
  • · Tree services, landscaping
  • · Neighborhood-targeted retail
Background

City-wide rotation

$0.20

per claim, fixed

City-wide brand presence on rotation. Highest reach for the budget — best when familiarity beats precision. The $0.20 fixed rate is the only flat-rate tier WilDi sells.

Best for

  • · Restaurant brands, retail specials
  • · Veteran-owned trust signals
  • · Cross-vertical brand awareness

Frequently asked questions

How much does a billboard cost in Jacksonville?

AdQuick lists Jacksonville static billboards at $4.50–$11 CPM (cost per thousand impressions), with most 4-week flights running $1,500–$4,500 in media plus $500–$2,000 in production. Digital DOOH boards in Jax run roughly $11 CPM. A typical mid-market local advertiser spends $2,000–$4,000/month for a single static board.

How does CPVD billing differ from CPM?

CPM bills you for every thousand estimated impressions, regardless of who saw it (driver, passenger, renter, out-of-market). CPVD's background tier bills $0.20 per GPS-verified delivery to a real driver phone — no estimation, no auction, no Middleman Tax. Tunnels (1-mile road strips) and zones (1-square-mile areas) are priced higher for hyper-local precision.

Why discount billboard impressions to 30%?

Out-of-Home industry research (Geopath, OAAA) consistently finds that the share of billboard impressions reaching an in-market, qualified buyer is much smaller than the raw vehicle count. We use 30% as a conservative working estimate — the actual figure varies by board, location, season, and product category. The honest takeaway: a 750,000-impression billboard rarely puts your message in front of 750,000 qualified buyers.

What does $0.20 buy on the background tier?

One GPS-verified delivery to a real driver phone moving through a Jacksonville street segment WilDi controls. The advertiser doesn't pay for impressions, attempts, or estimated reach — only for verified deliveries that actually happened. No auction, no exchange rake, no bot exposure.

What about tunnel and zone pricing?

Background is the city-wide rotation tier at $0.20 fixed. Tunnels (1-mile road strips) and zones (1-square-mile areas) deliver hyper-local just-in-time messages and are priced higher for that precision. Exact tunnel/zone pricing isn't publicly committed — talk to sales for a quote on a specific corridor.
