Here is an incredible offer that we will only do for a limited amount of time: You can put ads on Clever Commute for FREE (a $50 CPM value).

(1) What’s going on?

Across the Clever Commute community, vendors have been leveraging the Clever Commute platform (the New York Knicks, Ann Taylor/LOFT, Carnegie Hall, NFL.com, Stitcher,com…and more).
In order to meet the needs of our clients and handle the growth, we are implementing a new feature: self-service for advertisers.
This new approach is similar to what you might see other places on the web: Publishers (like Clever Commute, Google, Facebook) provide technology-based tools which allow you to create ad campaigns, arrange payment, and monitor progress. The best part: we need your help testing it out…so our “beta” is free!

Imagine: share the news about your brand, cause or event with an incredibly affluent (and employed!) audience. If you are not yet familiar with our advertising services, please check out:

(2) How to take action

  1. Let us know that you want to participate (mail to “advertising at clevercommute dot com”)
  2. We’ll send you a coupon code that you’ll use at checkout of our website’s new “client” section
  3. You create the ad…we activate it…and then your ad runs

(3) Some fine print

  • Prioritization of requests will be at the sole discretion of Clever Commute. Preference will be given to commuters who have pitched in and shared real-time commuter alerts.
  • Clever Commute reserves the right to decline any advertiser for reasons such as competition and suitability
  • If we accept your ad, we are committing to running it twice …on 1 line only (hopefully on the line of your preference). With that said, we have a strong history of over-delivering for our clients.
  • We have done a fair amount of internal testing of this new approach/software. With that said, this is “beta” software…so all features may not work.
  • This offer is only valid for new relationships with Clever Commute…and does not void/override any outstanding proposals. Can not be combined with any other discounts or promotions
  • Limited to the first 10 advertisers who successfully create an ad and submit it for approval
