How To Make Hoardings Work For Your Brand

In other words, you have to know the time, the place, the demographic of a particular hoarding location, and also possess the wisdom to arrive at a creative that engages the population to whom the billboard ad is eminently visible.

Such wisdom is not only a must, it is also extremely rare, which is why sound advice from good brand planners is so essential for communicating the brand message. Global with its two-decade-plus record of observing the correlation between outdoor site demographics and adspend RoI, is a good reason why it remains such a force in the field of OOH in Mumbai.

I believe the brand planner is almost a marketing resource for the brand and has to be as close to the brand as the marketing manager is. That talent needs to be revived. The second is medium-neutral brand custodians. We need talent that can look at the entire gamut of media and not just approach it as traditional versus digital. That bifurcation should end,” said Dighe.
