Digital Out of Home Advertising FAQ

1What is Outdoor Advertising?
Outdoor media advertising, also known as out-of-home advertising, is a type of advertising that reaches consumers when they are outside of their homes. Examples of outdoor ads include bus benches, bus shelters, billboards, posters, bulletins, digital billboards or any signage posted on the interiors and exteriors of buses, taxis, vehicles, and on the side of brick-and-mortar locations.
2Who uses out-of-home advertising?
Anyone with a product, service, or brand can take advantage of digital out of home advertising to publicize their business.
3Why is outdoor advertising effective?
Outdoor media advertising helps you connect with more people by placing unmissable messages in their path. Outdoor ads can’t be turned off, fast-forwarded through, thrown away, or clicked to close. It’s one of the few advertising mediums left that is not consumer controlled. It runs 24/7, 365 days a year.

Outdoor Ads deliver more views for less money than any other media form including radio and newspapers. Advertising is measured in cost per thousand impressions, and OOH delivers a better value to benefit ratio.
