Outdoor billboards can be a wonderful way to get your message out to lots of
people passing a specific place,seven days a week, 24 hours a day, in the areas
you feel are most important. It is a unique medium in that it communicates to
an audience on the go -- usually in transit, and always away from home.
Outdoor billboards can communicate simple yet powerful messages, and can be
used as an invitation to your church. Outdoor billboard advertising can also
provide simple directions to your church.
A FEW FACTS ABOUT OUTDOOR BILLBOARD ADVERTISING
In an age of ever-increasing specialization, with media focusing on smaller and
smaller slices of the population, outdoor advertising -- particularly
billboards -- remains the champion of the generic and the all-inclusive.
Far from a tightly targeted medium, outdoor is positioned as a way to reach
large, undifferentiated audiences. But that brevity can sharply limit its use.
In addition, some consider outdoor billboards an environmental eyesore.
However, used correctly, outdoor billboards can be highly effective.
When you embark on an outdoor campaign, you could be working with as many
as three different vendors (for space, artwork, production). So, in
planning your outdoor project, you should take the date you want your billboard
up by and back up at least six weeks. This will help ensure that you do not pay
for a board that remains blank for several days or even weeks.
Six weeks will give you ample time to find an outdoor vendor, negotiate a
contract, select an expression, determine customization and allow time for
artwork creation and output production. Bear in mind that many billboards have
extended contracts and may not be available right away.
