Pros Of LED Billboard Advertising

By Kathleen Cox


Coming up with a good product, brand or service is not important like creating awareness about it. Apart from social media or online promotion, businesses are turning to outdoor adverts like the use of digital displays. These were still in use decades ago but they have been advanced nowadays to lower costs and make them more effective. Here are some of the benefits of using LED billboard advertising.

One of the reasons organizations are using digital screens is that they are cheap. Paying online marketers is very expensive. Choosing to use brochures and posters for outdoor promotion, on the other hand, will be very expensive due to the printing of the posters. You do not necessarily have to pay for hundreds of full-color flyers to be put on all streets of the city. It will be very costly. Digital screens make sure you can create the ad digitally and send copies free of charge.

The next advantage is that there is a short lead time. The advertisement is sent electronically to the display which takes hours. The need to wait for weeks or send the ad weeks before it goes up the screen is eliminated. After a few hours, you will see the content you were advertising which is contrary to what happens in traditional counterparts. One sends the prints manually and so you have to do it days prior to the ad going up on the screen.

Again, a prime location is the benefit of these screens. Often, you will find them in central business districts, busy streets, or buildings that are used as landmarks. Such places are always busy will people of all kinds passing by. Among the passersby is the target demographic. These people can learn about the products or brand being promoted by looking at the screen. Thousands of people can see the ad hence creating awareness over a large population.

Again, LED screens are flexible. The information is sent electronically which makes it easy to change the advert after a certain period of time. It is possible to send two promotions and use time slots to display them both. Similarly, it is easier to customize the message by adding or removing some content without having to pull down the whole billboard.

Again, it often is easy to make the advertisement short but have it stay on the screen for a long time. The time for exposure is two weeks but you can change that by reducing the length of the ad but choose specific days for which you get a space on the billboard. It helps improve the efficiency in the promotion budget.

The bad thing with traditional print ads is that one cannot choose specific times when the content can go up the screen because there are no time slots. The timing of an advert is crucial because if it is the wrong time, the message will not reach the target population. However, being able to decide the right time you want your ad on the billboard helps a lot.

Lastly, they enhance innovation. Businesses can come up with great ideas using the LED billboards. For hotels that are open throughout the day serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the ads can be customized for each meal rather than using the same ad for all meals.
