Frequently Asked Questions

Core Forum in Louisville concentrates Education professionals in one place, so your ads reach people already interested in your category instead of a broad, untargeted crowd.

Draw a geofence around The Galt House Hotel in Louisville and serve display, video, or CTV ads to the phones inside it — the same audience an exhibitor pays for, without the booth, travel, or staff.

Geofenced event campaigns tend to outperform standard display because the audience is already primed for your category. Run ads during the event, then retarget the same attendees afterward.

Core Forum draws Education professionals, a focused audience for well-targeted advertising.

Pick Core Forum, outline the venue with a geofence, set your budget, and launch — most campaigns go live in minutes, with full performance reporting throughout.
