The
simplest understanding of outdoor
advertising is any type of advertisement that is accessible through an out
of home channel such as a billboard display, wall poster, a kiosk ad, a transit
vehicle, a bus shelter ad etc. Outdoor
advertising is one of the conventional means of promoting a brand or
service among potential customers. Over
the last few years, outdoor advertising
industry has gone through various changes.
New tools have been inducted in OOH Advertising domain; many avenues of
promotion have also been introduced. However, in this blog, let us find out how
outdoor advertising is a right means
of flaunting any type of brand message.
An OOH Ad display presents a brand message
in an attractive manner. Customers cannot ignore an OOH ad display that hits
their eyeballs. Brand messages conveyed through outdoor media are usually
interesting ones. Customers therefore fondly remember the brand messages. It is
also worth noting that an OOH ad
display is omnipresent i.e. customers can view the brand message round the
clock, week or even month. A repeated view of the brand message provides good
recall on customers’ mind. They are therefore motivated to try out the
product. On various other circumstances,
such as irrelevance of the brand message or lesser requirement of the product,
one can also refer the brand message to friends or relatives. In both ways the
brand message is not wasted and thus reaches out to potential buyers.
An outdoor advertising display also
provides locational advantage to customers. Customers most often find an OOH ad
display a convenient landmark or direction to a particular place. In this
manner, those customers unconsciously form a fond impression about the
brand. If this impression lasts long and
becomes stronger, those customers may probably consider of buying the product. It’s
not just for a particular brand; most of the OOH ads leave a positive impression
about brands on customers’ mind.
