Challenge
Ethlon Media needed a digital solution to streamline and scale their outdoor marketing operations. Their goal was to manage a fleet of moving advertisement vehicles (like rickshaws and premium cars), track campaign performance in real time, and provide transparent reporting to clients.
They faced three core challenges:
- Manual coordination between contractors (Thekedars), drivers, and vehicles.
- No centralized system for assigning jobs or tracking coverage.
- Limited transparency for clients in campaign performance.
