How to Be Effective With Your Outdoor Advertising Using Billboards

by | Jul 12, 2017 | Digital Printing

Outdoor advertising is becoming more competitive and businesses need to up the stakes. Again, digital adverts have become the preferred choice for many businesses. So, how can the traditional outdoor advertising using billboards remain in the scene even in such competitiveness? Here are ways you can make your outdoor advertising in New Mexico to be more effective:

Consider more billboards

You may put up one billboard- and to say the truth, they are expensive to design. However, while the billboard isn’t cheap, it is also not very effective if you use only one. So, you would want to consider having more billboards. Billboards are rated according to Gross Rating Points or GRPs they garner.

The GRP is dependent on visibility, traffic, size, and location among other determinants. The score is somewhere between 1 and 100. This means that if your billboard has a score or rating of 50, it can be seen by at least 50 percent of the people in that neighborhood each day. If you had several of the billboards, it could increase the GRP. But that again means you pay more.

Show it in the billboard

You need to be creative when it comes to using billboards. You can have a 3 dimensional one with moving parts or even an animated board. With 3D boards, they can create huge PR impressions and they pay off. It may cost a little more, but it is worthwhile using it.

Use ‘arm’s length’ test

Well, you have probably come up with a superb, striking board. It is concise, clean, and catchy with all contrasting colors. While the board and what is in there may be interesting, can people see it? Can they read it or can they understand the message?

What you need to do is have the board printed to attain the size of business cards. Then, hold the re-sized board at your arm’s length. See if you can get the message being passed across. If you can’t, then you should know that when it is placed in that 42 inch monitor, people won’t be able to see it clearly.

Making an outdoor advertising in New Mexico may not be an easy thing as you might imagine. You should have a professional hand handle it. Billboard designers know the ins and outs of doing it. They know the tactics and have the creativity. Just trust them.
