The Marketing Mix

Out of Home Advertising... what is it & can it help your business?

Out-of-home (OOH) advertising refers to any form of advertising that reaches consumers while they are outside of their homes. This can include traditional forms of advertising, such as billboards and transit advertising, as well as newer forms of advertising, such as digital billboards and location-based mobile advertising.

OOH advertising is often used to reach people who are on the go, such as commuters or travelers, as well as people who are in specific locations, such as near a retail store or at a tourist attraction.

One of the key benefits of OOH advertising is that it allows businesses to reach a large audience in a specific location, which can be particularly useful for businesses that have a physical location nearby or are targeting a local market.

OOH advertising can be effective for a wide range of businesses and organizations, including retail stores, restaurants, tourism companies, and service providers. It is important for businesses to carefully consider their target audience and marketing goals when deciding whether OOH advertising is a good fit for their needs.

One example of a business using out-of-home (OOH) advertising is a fast food chain or gas stations that places billboards near their exits on busy highways to attract potential customers. By targeting people who are on the go and likely to be in need of a quick meal, this type of advertising can be an effective way for the fast food chain to drive sales and increase brand awareness.

Another example of a business using OOH advertising is a clothing retailer that places digital billboards in high-traffic areas, such as shopping malls or busy city streets, to promote its latest fashion collections. The digital billboard gives the advertiser multiple messages to rotate, which works exceptionally well at intersections with stop lights. This type of advertising can be particularly effective for reaching a younger, fashion-conscious audience.

OOH advertising can also be effective for promoting events, such as concerts or festivals, by using billboards and other forms of advertising to build excitement and awareness among people who are in the area.

 

Again, the effectiveness of OOH advertising will depend on the specific goals and target audience of the business, as well as the location and type of advertising used. It is important for businesses to carefully consider these factors when planning an OOH advertising campaign.
