The Advantages Of Mobile Billboards

By Shirley Miller


A successful marketing campaign is one that is able to effectively spread the word about a brand or a business. Mobile billboard trucks and other forms of advertising vehicles are very effective when it come to driving sales. Standard billboards are able to get the job done but mobile advertising is statistically better when it comes to promotions. When considering the use of mobile billboards there are many advantages that they come with.

Among the main advantages if that they can easily reach larger groups of people. With other advertisement modes, the downside is that they can only effectively reach areas close to the business. They also reach a smaller audience. For example, using print advertisement only reaches persons who have access to newspapers. With internet adverts, one will need to have access to the internet, just as is the use of videos to advertise.

With mobile billboard adverts, it will be possible to reach a much larger audience. The cars, buses or bikes which the advertisement is on will be moving around constantly around areas with high traffic. That ensures that many people are exposed to the ads and by extension your business. You will be able to cover the whole city and reach people that would not have been reached with the other modes.

You can target specific audiences with this method. That is because you can plan the routes that will be covered by the trucks. As a result, you will be able to get to your targeted area based on certain factors. The factors to consider include target neighborhoods and specific socio-economic areas. Also, you can get to areas where target businesses are. In case there are conventions, events or conferences, they will be easily reached. If static billboards were to be used, you will not have control on the areas that you can target.

Moving billboards will ensure you know exactly where your advert is reaching. That is because you are able to track the vehicle with GPS. Whereas you can set specific routes on private trucks or cars, that is not possible with all vehicles. If you have ads on a bus or cab with variable routes, you will not be able to know where the ad is being seen. With GPS however, you will be able to easily track the route and know where the vehicle has been all day.

Using such a billboard is very cost-effective. There are various forms of advertisement but they tend to be costly. Such ads might not be very feasible for a business that is operating on a budget. When using adverts, you need to be in a position to track ROI so that you determine whether the investment was valuable. Moving adverts are less costly compared to radio commercials, printed commercials or television commercials.

Consumers cannot click or turn away the billboards. There are many types of adverts which are easily avoidable. You can easily mute commercials on TV, click away from ads online or turn the pages from newspapers. That is not the case with a mobile billboard.

The billboards are actually almost unavoidable. A consumer will not find it easy to get away from them. That ensures they are constantly being seen by people.
