Diversity of Outdoor Advertising

If you catch a train in New York City during weekends, you will find yourself caught in another era. To promote the season two of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire, a vintage subway train that was used in 1917 until 1969 replaced New York’s normal train on weekends. If you are, however, around London, you will find 3D white paper- machete horses leaping from Foam posters instead.

These creative Outdoor Digital Advertising campaigns were able to attract the attention of people by standing out from the background and being different. They had the ability to surprise and delight people and made them notice their advertisements instantly. Their advertisements turned into tourist attractions with people taking pictures and videos and posting them online which gave them a huge amount of exposure. This is one of the perks of outdoor advertising. Advertising outdoors gives you dozens of opportunities to create outstanding campaigns with various platforms that you can use for your innovative strategies. With outdoor advertising, your advertisements are not kept inside a box. Instead, they come alive.

LivingSocial executed a two- day stunt in London by making use of Taxi advertising. Unsuspecting passengers were given a choice: whether to continue to their destination or to roll the dice. With rolling the dice meaning that they will be given exciting new experiences such as chess boxing, pole-dancing, fitness classes, chef master classes, a speedboat ride, and a wildlife adventure in the courtesy of LivingSocial. Their strategy really worked well in showing their brand promise in a creative and unexpected way. Another perk of Outdoor Advertising is that you are able to give your audiences unique and personal experiences – an adventure they will never forget, in this case – that effectively communicate your brand message.

If you happen to be in a beach and are in desperate need of a sunscreen or if your phone or iPod is out of battery, do not fret. Bus stop advertisements in Australia, Chicago and New York have exactly what you need. These days, advertisements are not just something to look at and to tell you what you have to buy in order to get what you need. Instead, they give you what you need right there on the spot, while waiting for your bus of course. Outdoor advertising enables advertisers to target customers effectively and efficiently. Your advertisement can be at the right place at the right time. And by giving your consumers a useful and relevant experience, they will surely be convinced by the effectiveness of your brand.

And lastly, what about an advertisement that cures you of your boredom? Walk down the underpass in Orchard MRT Station in Singapore and you will find the latest virtual reality technology that allows commuters to participate in a game (which also doubles as an advertisement). Outdoor Advertising Specialists have created more diversified outdoor advertisements with numerous possibilities to attract, create fun, become useful, and interact with audiences.
