Billboards for Public Figures
Whether you’re finding your footing in a tumultuous political landscape or leading an active community group, making sure people in your area know who you are is vital.
Social media campaigns are a great start, but their skippable, blockable nature lets many people ignore them. That’s where out-of-home (OOH) advertising comes in: putting your name, face, and information on a billboard, bus, or street furniture makes sure locals know exactly who you are.
Consider Your Message
People take in billboards very quickly, so you need a clear, concise message about who you are and what you believe in. Whether you’re a political candidate, community group, or local presence, your ad should spread your intended message quickly and effectively.
Use Design to Show Who You Are
OOH ads need an eye-catching design to draw attention. Through your choices of color, font, and formatting, you’re not just advertising; you’re telling a story about who you are and what your priorities are.
Location Is Key
First, determine your billboard’s ultimate goal:
- Getting people to vote for you in an upcoming election?
- Celebrating an achievement?
- Spreading the word about something you believe is important?
Then think deeply about who needs to see it. You might choose a specific ward of your city’s voting bloc, or a high-traffic stretch of highway to reach as many people as possible. Each choice changes your billboard’s influence on the community.
