Brands are facing a unique challenge they haven’t had to deal with before: how to allocate budgets in the midst of a global pandemic. Today’s uncertain circumstances understandably raise questions about which channels are still effective, and which have become obsolete or should no longer be a priority. One channel that frequently emerges in this conversation is out-of-home.

Historically, the main benefit of traditional, static billboards have been 1) the mass reach they deliver and 2) complete ownership of real estate. However, with that in mind, times are changing. People’s movement patterns continue to evolve, and brands should consider what their campaign goals are before investing. Static, digital and programmatic DOOH all have their unique benefits and use cases, and work very complementary to each other; therefore, it’s important to understand your brand’s needs and priorities in order to evaluate what will work best in today’s world.
As experts in the OOH field, Vistar Media is serving as a consultant on all things out-of-home. and actively working with brands to help optimize their current strategies.
