Although business owners might not think of aerial advertising when planning their annual advertising budget, they should.

There are many distinct advantages to using airplane advertising. In many cases, the advantage of using plane advertising over more “traditional” advertising mediums is quite significant.

When planning an advertising budget, business owners should consider the distinct advantages of using aerial advertising as a medium to get a message across. The return on the initial investment could be significant.

Some of the benefits include:

Cost savings

First, aerial advertising is cost effective. You can easily reach thousands of people in a small period of time. You don’t have to assume they’ll watch the commercial and not flip the channel. You can be assured that when airplane messages appear, they will look skyward and pay attention to the advertisement that’s passing over.

That means there is no money wasted on advertising that won’t be read or paid attention to. In fact, it’s estimated that plane advertising costs about 50 cents per thousand people. No matter the deal offered by a radio station or a newspaper, it’s hard to beat the return on the aerial advertising dollar. Cost effective it is.

Novelty

It’s unusual and provides a break from the usual. People pay attention to aerial advertising, likely because it’s not something you see often. When they are laying in the sun on the beach on a lazy July day, they look skyward when airplane messages appear.

In addition, that novelty leads to memory. That is, people remember the aerial adds they see more than they remember other types of advertising. This is partly due to the novelty – they stop and say “hey, look at that plane and the banner!” – But it’s also the attention the banners garner. Studies show that people will generally watch the aerial advertising as is passes over and will continue to watch it until it disappears from sight. That’s a solid block of time where the intended audience is focusing on the advertiser’s message.

Non intrusive

To get the message across, advertisers who use banner towing aren’t intruding on people’s homes, their living room tables or their cars. They are simply providing a message that’s flown over the beach, or an event or other gathering.

People don’t feel as if their privacy, opinions or personal reading has been invaded. This advertising actually does something that most advertising can’t do – provide a welcome distraction, entertainment and a novel thing to talk about.

Increase ad recall

People remember aerial advertising more than any other advertising medium. Studies have shown that when questioned, 77% of the people who had just seen airplane advertising remembered what was being advertised on the banner. Another 67% could remember what was being advertised.

These numbers are far greater than the response to other kinds of advertising like radio and print ads.

All of these benefits add up to one great benefit – better use of your advertising dollar and a better return on that dollar.

Aerial Advertising services are available from companies that specialize in this type of advertising. The Internet is a good source of information when it comes to choosing aerial advertising services. Arnold Aerial Advertising is one of the companies that provide such services. Located in New York, Arnold Aerial Advertising provides nationwide service with affordable rates.

Advertisement techniques don’t have to be new to be effective. But the most effective ones in today’s modern environment are interactive, target a narrow market, and get immediate responses.

This article covers five advertisement techniques that meet one or more of the above modern criteria:

•    PR Advertisements

•    Theatre Advertisements

•    Magazine Advertisements

•    Publication Advertisements

•    Cable Television Advertisements

Advertisement Techniques 1: PR Advertisements

PR advertisements are great at building support for your business. Usually a PR advertisement’s purpose isn’t to make a sale, but to build contacts and friends for your business.

The best advertising technique for PR advertising is getting your potential supporters interacting with you and your business. Whether it’s making a telephone call, visiting a Web site or completing a form, interaction enables you to build support for your business and industry.

Advertisement Techniques 2: Theatre Advertisements

Theatre advertisements  work  effectively if it’s possible to get people to take immediate action. You need to reinforce the ad on the screen with a printed promotion like a coupon, to get people to respond immediately.

Advertisement Techniques 3: Magazine Advertisements

Magazine advertisements work well because magazines enable you to target a niche market and design advertisements specifically for people in the market.

With so many magazines, you can always find one that targets your market, if you:

•    use them as a direct approach to get readers to take action.

•    make an offer that requires a quick response,

•    get advertising sale people to design ads that get readers to respond.

Advertisement Techniques 4: Publication Advertisements

Many small business owners overlook publication advertising. Publication advertisements reach target markets well, but isn’t as good at providing interactivity or getting a quick response.

You can run advertisements in everything from programs, to books and professional journals.

Programs offer a targeted market, and earn good will with the organization’s supporters or fans.

If a book is relevant to your product, it can reach your target market effectively. The trick to book advertisements is deciding how to pay:

•    by the number printed,

•    by the number distributed or

•    by size of the ad.

If you are targeting people in a certain profession, advertising in their professional journals can reach your target market. Advertisements in professional journals provide good value because members pay to receive the journals. They are interested in nearly anything that helps them to better succeed in their professions.

Advertisement Techniques 5: Cable Television Advertisements

Cable television advertisements are usually less expensive than regular television advertisements. Many small business owners can afford to use cable television advertising to promote sponsorships, product placements and air sponsor-supplied programming.

Advertisement Techniques: Conclusion

The trick to using all advertisement techniques is to design ads that get attention and encourage target market members to respond quickly by visiting a web site, calling a telephone number, or some other contact method.

And the more interactive, you can make your advertisements, the better.

Advertisers these days have many options for advertising, but Mobile Advertising and Internet Advertising are the two most thrilling, as advertisements look very attractive when displayed on phone screens and on computer/laptop screens. Since much potential and scope lies in mobile and Internet advertising and it tends to deeply appeal to the viewers. Mobile Advertisement and Internet Advertisements have come in focus.

Mobile Advertising is closely related to online or Internet Advertising, though its reach is far greater – mobile advertising’s estimated targets say that by end 2008, there would be global total 4 billion. Global estimates of computers, including desktops and laptops, is at 800 million. Therefore exclusive advertising on web pages meant for access by mobile phones is a great idea.

It would be easier for an advertiser to convince people to buy their product when people would receive and view ads while there are already out for shopping. Giving them the relevant information needed can do this and supplying them with added details could also influence them to the extent that they straightaway proceed to buy product after seeing its ads.

As essential needs of all humans are very similar, a person who has received an advertisement through Mobile or Internet may not be in need of the service or product advertised but might know someone who is in need of it and so can pass on the advertiser’s message through word of mouth, forwarding the link or the advertisement. A major benefit of Internet Advertising is that the information and content can be accessed in any country even at late odd hours. Internet Advertisements are often interactive advertising so if the Internet Advertiser opts for a response, the viewer may like to visit the brand’s website, or try to contact them through email, phone, etc.

Mobile Advertising and Internet Advertising in future are predicted to become the major sources of advertising.

Michael Arnold asked:


Consumers are bombarded with advertising on a daily basis. It’s estimated that most of us see or hear more than 100 ads per day.

This isn’t aerial advertising we’re talking about. Nope, we’re talking about basic, run of the mill advertisements. We hear radio advertisements for car dealerships, energy drinks and local beauty salons. We see newspaper advertisements for pet and discount stores. We see television advertisements for soft drinks and the latest sugary cereal.

But how many of those advertisements would we consider unique, interesting and worth remembering? Few, that’s for sure.

If even one of those advertisements was brought to us via airplane advertising, it’s likely we’d remember. Plane advertising is a novel and unique concept and that uniqueness means people remember it.

Most of us can’t remember what ads we saw in the sports section this morning. We think there might have been an advertisement for a sporting goods store, and maybe a lingerie store, but that’s about it. The front section might have included an advertisement for a furniture or department store, but we’re not sure.

Do we remember the aerial advertising we saw at the beach or the festival last summer? Likely, the answer is yes. That’s because aerial advertising brings something to the table that traditional advertisements just can’t touch – novelty and uniqueness, which breeds remembrance. That is, we remember advertisements that come to us in a unique and novel way. We remember ads that, themselves, are unique and novel.

Marketing experts will tell you that the key to creating memorable advertising is making it memorable. That is, no matter the product, present it in a way that’s interesting and memorable. Even ads for housecleaning can be exciting if presented in a unique way.

Advertisers, then, should look toward airplane messages as a way to get their advertising remembered. You could spend hours coming up with the right slogan and the best looking advertisement, or advertisers can spend a short period of time working with a representative from an aerial advertising company.

Because airplane advertising makes use of short messages, it is important that vital information is conveyed quickly, but creating a novel advertisement is much easier. As far as advertising goes, there’s little that’s more novel and unique than airplane advertising. When people hear that plan overhead, they naturally look skyward. They pay attention to the banner towing and they remember what they read on the banner that’s being towed.

Consumers report very positive responses to aerial advertising and that’s largely due to its novelty, its unique way of presenting an advertisement.

When advertisers are looking for the right medium for their advertising dollar, they are well served to look toward airplane advertising. It offers the uniqueness that people remember and an opportunity to get a message out to potentially thousands of people at once. There are few other advertising mediums that can boast of that.

Aerial Advertising services are available from companies that specialize in this type of advertising. The Internet is a good source of information when it comes to choosing aerial advertising services. Arnold Aerial Advertising is one of the companies that provide such services. Located in New York, Arnold Aerial Advertising provides nationwide service with affordable rates.
