LOWEST COST PER IMPRESSION
Among major advertising media, outdoor advertising delivers the
lowest cost per thousand impressions (CPM):
- Television: $20-30 CPM
- Digital advertising: $10-20 CPM
- Outdoor advertising: $2-7 CPM
This efficiency translates to higher ROI for your advertising investment.
CAN'T BE BLOCKED OR SKIPPED
Unlike digital ads (27% of consumers use ad blockers) or TV commercials (frequently muted or skipped), outdoor advertising delivers guaranteed visibility during daily commutes, errands, and regular routines. Your message is always there when customers drive past—building familiarity through repeated exposure.
THE MARKET OPPORTUNITY
UNDERUTILIZED BY SMALL BUSINESSES
Though consumers spend 70% of their waking hours outside their homes, only 5% of advertising budgets target outdoor media.
Why this gap? Traditional billboards cost $577-$3,464+/week —pricing out the 25 million small businesses that could benefit from outdoor advertising's proven effectiveness.
This massive disconnect between consumer behavior (70% of time outside) and advertising spend (5% of budgets) creates an opportunity for businesses that can access affordable outdoor advertising.
GROWING FASTER THAN TRADITIONAL MEDIA
Out-of-home advertising is the second-fastest growing ad medium
in the U.S. (only digital advertising grows faster).
Record consumer mobility—miles driven and flown—has driven this growth. As people spend more time outside their homes, outdoor advertising reaches them during their daily routines.
HIGHLY EFFECTIVE FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES
About 7 out of 10 outdoor advertising campaigns promote local businesses, making OOH one of the most effective local media channels available.
This local focus means outdoor advertising delivers targeted reach for businesses serving specific geographic areas—unlike mass media that wastes impressions on people outside your service area.
