gas-pump-advertisingGone are the days when billboards, posters, and flyers were the standard advertising apparatuses.  In the modern era, advertising has spread into almost every facet of human day to day life.  We advertising it pop up on our computers and in our e-mails.  As we go about our errands we see Laundromat and gas pump advertising; advertisements are everywhere.  In this modern era, companies have a unique opportunity to reach consumers without having the consumer look for them. 

The most important things for companies to do right now is to think of new and original ways to reach the consumer, especially keeping in mind new technologies.

Keep it simple stupid!!  That is the best advice I have seen when doing out of home advertisement.  If your message has thousand of words or the type is so samll just to make sure all your info sits on the page then you might want to rethink what your doing.

 Simple si more eyecatching.  Think about it this way, if you see a huge time consuming piece of information as your filling up your car are you going to read all that information?  Most people will feeel its just too exhausting and move on to something else.  Make your a

The secret to running a great advertising campaign is spending your dollars wisely.  There are several ways to make sure this is done properly.  I’ve noted only a few of these items.First and foremost is targeting your audience with laser-beam like focus.  Drives me nuts when I see people advertising in areas they can’t even service or even areas they want to reach.  Why are they waisting their dollars on people that have no relevance to their campaign.  Every impression costs money.  That is one of the best reasons for doing the gas pump advertising.  They target your audience to the specific neighborhood.

 Second when placing traditional outdoor billboards don’t just settle on what they have

available.  If they can’t service your exactneeds because of availability or prior booking don’t

just take the next best thing….find a better avenue.

Pacific Media’s gas station ads go where traditional outdoor is restricted or non-existent..high income, commercially restricted, and residential areas.  By being able to choose the zip codes in which your zip codes will be placed, you can bring your ads to the people in the areas you want to target.

When choosing the area you want to target keep in mind that most people always visit gas stations around their place of employment or where they reside.  Either filling up before the journey home or the commute to work.

Market presentation- Many of the same customers that have utilized traditional outdoor and transit have found it incredibly complimentary to add Gas Station Advertisng to their media mix.

 People are spending more time in their vehicles then ever before.  According to the National Associtation of Convenience Stores 67% of consumers buy gas at least 4 times a month with an average of 3-5 minutes viewing time.

Pacific Media does an excellent job at both of the above.

I have to agree that these Gas Station ads are a great idea.  When your pumping gas you having nothing else going on but seeing your dollars fly out of your card so why not read some ads.  Pacific Media is really on to something.  The ads seem to range in size and shape, although they are all full color laminated placards. 

I heard about these TVs now on pumps and I have to say that they are really loud and annoying.  I love the video concept but hate the audio portion.  Almost seems like an invasion of privacy or noise pollution.

Hello Everyone,

 Driving from one county to the next as usual and stumbled across yet anothe great gas station ad from Pacific Media.  The ad was for a credit union letting individuals know about the new openings a a partiulcar branch.  This fits my needs perfectly with all of the additional expenses I found it was very helpful to have the ability to find a credit union.  I heard they had much better interest rates on loans and checking accounts.

 The ad itself was very lean and simple with a almost marron red and tope or some sort of beige.  Not a real color expert.  Hope you all have a great afternoon.
