Advantages of Printed billboard & Site advertising over Digital
With the rise of digital it’s important to compare it with traditional billboard advertising costs. Digital billboards are costly and out of reach to most small businesses. Printed billboards are much more affordable along with the following benefits.
• Paper billboards offer exclusivity –
When advertising on digital billboards, you will be sharing the space with a minimum of 5 other advertisers. This will only give you 10 seconds coverage each minute. Whereas Printed billboards can be secured exclusively giving you solus advertising and maximum exposure.
• Traditional billboard advertising costs are within reach –
With digital billboards you would expect to pay around £1400-£2000 for a 2 week slot with 1/6th of the coverage. The cost of printed site advertising starts from just £40.00 for a 2 week slot and is exclusive to you.
• Advert transition –
Digital runs the risk of consumers missing your message as they’re unable to read it fast enough before it changes. Printed billboard are quite the opposite. Your business is the only one that is displayed and doesn’t get replaced by another advertiser after a few seconds.
