44 Clever Outdoor Advertising Samples | You The Designer |
44 Clever Outdoor Advertising Samples Posted: 05 Oct 2011 08:00 AM PDT Outdoor Advertising has certainly evolved through the years. With so many concepts and tag lines already overused, companies have to constantly think outside the box in order to come up with ads that could capture the imagination of their target market. Billboards, the most common form of outdoor ads, now offer a lot more than just the company logo and tagline. Almost every billboard today is strategically located. Location not only helps in terms of exposure, but could really be a major component of the ad. In addition to this, billboards also make use of presentations or even materials that may seem unconventional, but can be very effective in promoting a particular product or cause. Outdoor advertising is not limited to billboards. Bus-bench and transit advertising are only two of the many media of outdoor advertising currently being used. Some of these innovative outdoor ads are just so bizarre that it would be better for you to see them for yourself. We’ve collected 44 outdoor advertising samples that will surely amuse and enlighten you. Check them out and tell us what you think by leaving a comment.

Fantastic selection of advertisements, especially I like Colorado State Patrol Billboard Collision because its eye catching and art of the unexpected, with Colorado State Patrol innovative advertizing idea which raising responsibilities in traffic wanted to scare the driver with billboard attention to dangers of aggressive and fast driving behind the tailgait truck, the target were drivers typical male in his mid twenties who regularly drive to work every day and who consider themselves secure and safe driver but ont the contrary they are a threat because they are too sure of themselves and that is the beginning of the end, visit my blog Reklamiranje firme with detailed descriptions of advertisements
