Tactics For Successful Mobile Billboard Advertising

By Jerry West


Most will often say that ignorance is bliss but this may not always be the case when it leads to one missing out on amazing information which can even prove cost-effective and in this case mobile billboard advertising fits the profile. This is an advertising method that involves using trucks that have been pimped with the information of a represented brand as they move from city to city.

This form of publicity has its own success among them being the fact that it is most likely to reach a more diverse and larger audience than other forms of publicity. It is estimated that around 97% of people will remember what they saw on billboard trucks compared to the 58% who remember advertisements they saw in other platforms. It is a success only when one uses appropriate methods.

As simple as this method may sound, it is always advised to approach it with careful planning and clarity in each and every decision that will be involved in the process. A basic tactic would be to use complex strategies while still targeting a diverse demography the main aim is to stir up somewhat of a controversy enough to get social media attention but not offensive inviting bitter critics.

The main reason for using mobile billboards is so as to catch the eyes of many people as possible and one way to make this close to possible is to spend most of your publicity resources on highly populated areas mostly the high-traffic ones. This is proving effective as whenever people are stuck in traffic and their eyes wander if your truck happens to be in sight when it gets their attention.

While with other forms of billboards that are stationary, with mobile ones you can be able to track exactly where your marketing is reaching of course with the help GPS tracking. One is able to know which audience is viewing their brand and on top of that, you feel a sense of control over your investments even when they are not in the same place as you are.

A big setback is that it can be hard to get feedback from your clients main reason being that of visibility. It can prove to be quite hard to pass information that has been written on a moving bus and on top of it there are two or more things on it. It is there for wise to use less information as much as possible and avoid any form of jargon that may leave the reader confused or unsure.

When dealing with complex products that may need more digging into, this is not the best tool as one can only offer a limited amount of information. At times a client will need to have a product completely decoded which is a right they are entitled to, mobile billboards cannot afford to do this as then most of the information will be missed by the reader.

This is an advertising method that could bring in a ton of success if used in a smart and well-crafted way. Always keep track of the regions where the message got well received and recorded more sales without forgetting to also try and reach those that did not.
