Hit the High Street with Bus Shelter Advertising!

Bus shelter advertising is a great way to target shoppers, pedestrians and motorists alike. 

Bus shelters are sited in some of the busiest locations that billboards cannot target and also have the advantage of being situated in a place where people naturally gather and are often in need of something to occupy them whilst they wait for the bus! 

Bus Shelter advertising is available in two formats; static and scrolling:

Static Bus Shelter Advertising:
6 sheet format facing either inside or outside of the bus shelter allowing you to target pedestrians from both directions as well as those waiting at the bus stop.

Scrolling Bus Shelter Advertising:
The same 6 sheet size as static bus shelter advertising, but with three advertisements on a scrolling sheet.  Each receive equal display time as they move and are situated on the outside on the bus shelter. 

Many people wrongly assume that scrolling advertising is worse value than static as they have to share the space with other advertisers.  In fact the opposite is true, as the scrolling movement draws attention to the advertisement, which can actually mean increased customer recall for your campaign.

Our bus shelter advertising allows you to choose from a single site outside of an important building or a selection of sites across a town, city or region.  Campaigns as a rule run for 2-weeks.  Full artwork specifications are provided on booking a campaign.

Knowing more about Effective Bus Stop Advertising

Bus stop advertising is an excellent way of promoting your products or services in the market place. However, if you want your bus stop advertising campaign to be successful, it has to be innovative. Also known as ‘Transit Shelter Displays”, bus stop advertising can be more effective than other large hoardings. Bus stop advertising is a wonderful option in those areas where billboards are not available. Most marketing organizations consider bus stop advertising as one of the best ways to attract motorists, targeted customers, pedestrians and others.

Greater Visibility

Since bus stops are located in some of the busiest parts of the city, it offers greater visibility. With bus stop advertising targeting bus riders, pedestrians, drivers and others, you can be sure that it will work for you right throughout the year unlike newspaper ads or television ads.

This means, those who have a local business will find bus stop advertising an ideal option to target local shoppers. Bus stop advertising also attracts greater visibility as it is normally located in areas where a large number of people gather.

Different Types

Bus stop advertising is of two kinds – static and scrolling bus stop advertising. Static bus stop advertising involves a six sheet format that either faces the insides of the bus stop or its external side. Using such a format will enable you to focus on pedestrians moving in from both directions and at the same time also target those who are at the bus stop. Likewise, scrolling bus stop advertising also uses a similar six sheet format. However, unlike static ads, it includes three advertisements on a single scrolling sheet with each advertisement getting the same display time. Scrolling bus stop advertising is normally placed on the outside portion of the bus stop.
