One of the keys to advertising is standing out. This comes after you’ve determined that you have a bankable service. By this point you’ve ironed out the details and crafted your message into a concise statement. The worst thing that can happen is for this message to go unheard.

Unfortunately, it can be very easy to go unseen. The number of services that go unnoticed regularly can be disheartening. Even to seasoned advertisers, there is always the risk of falling by the wayside. So how do you ensure that this never happens? Billboard extensions are a great start!

Stand out among the many

As stated the key is standing out. This means your content has to be as memorable as possible. This is particularly the case in industries that are oversaturated with participants. If 12 people marketed the same service as you before the customer gets to see you, you may be facing an uphill battle.

That’s why the memorability of your adverts has to be exponential. Getting a billboard extension can effectively help to solve this issue! If the last 12 people had run of the mill signs, having a billboard extension could steal the show!

Don’t fall victim to predictable advertising

Even though your ad may be visible, you only have a matter of seconds to capture and captivate. Don’t waste a second of that time using something ineffective, or worse, predictable. Every moment is crucial. Fill it with something that will take your brand to the next level!

Jason Sirotin:

Hi, I’m Jason Sirotin, and today I’m speaking with Bill Hobbs, who is the owner and proprietor, managing director, everything, of Effortless Outdoor Media, which is a outdoor media advertising placement company. So Bill, I have a client who is interested in doing this like King Kong type billboard, and it’s outside of the normal shape and he’s going up. Why would they want to do that? Is that something that they should do? Are extensions good for getting attention?

Bill Hobbs:

Oh definitely. Yeah. So if you put an extension on the billboard, because most billboards are a rectangle, they all look the same shape. If you put an extension, whether it’s a gorilla or even the person’s logo is a half circle on top of the billboard, or I’ve worked with the Horse Town Western Wear, and they have a boot as an extension on a couple of their billboards. And the top of the boot is sticking out. Because it goes on top of the billboard, and it’s over the top to say that, when you drive by the road, there may be 10 billboards. You’ll notice one with an extension and it’ll be a lot more effective than a traditional billboard. And it’s just a one-time charge. So I recommend most of my clients use extensions.

Jason Sirotin:

Right. Like the old Chick-fil-A billboards with the cows hanging off and stuff.

Bill Hobbs:

Yeah.
