What Makes Great Mobile Outdoor Advertising
Do’s and Don’ts
Do:
- Use computerized painting on vinyl. 70% of market uses this today instead of hand painted messages on steel panels. Versatility, vibrant color and durability are some of the benefits.
- Use 3-dimentional billboards. Special effects by fine arts professionals, sculptors and engineers pack a powerful punch.
- Check into electronic message technology. It is becoming readily available and affordable.
- Vehicular and pedestrian traffic amount should be checked before deciding upon a location.
- Target your market; customize national campaigns to your local market.
- Provide directional clues to the location. Get the immediate impact.
Don’t:
- Have too much information. While driving by with cell phone in hand and kids screaming in the back seat, there is no time for taking in more than a moment of information. They won’t stop to write it down. Have a maximum of no more than 6 words.
- Have complex graphics, for the same reason as few words.
- Keep the same outdoor sign/ graphics for long periods of time. They become invisible, people don’t notice them anymore.
- Have the print size too small or the colors not readable.
