As the days grow longer and the weather warms up, people are naturally spending more time outdoors. Spring marks a shift in consumer behavior, making it a prime opportunity for businesses to capitalise on Out-of-Home (OOH) advertising. With digital fatigue at an all-time high, brands that leverage billboards and outdoor ads can engage with their audience in a fresh, impactful way.
The Rise of Digital Fatigue
Over the past few years, consumers have been bombarded with online ads, emails, and social media promotions. Studies show that digital ad fatigue is real—users are tuning out pop-ups, skipping video ads, and installing ad blockers to reduce screen-based interruptions. This makes OOH advertising a powerful alternative, offering businesses a non-intrusive, high-visibility way to connect with potential customers. So as the weather gets better and we welcome Spring, it presents a unique advantage for you to increase your brand awareness, credibility and build trust with your target audience with our unmissable red billboards:
Why Spring is the Best Time for OOH Advertising
1️⃣ Longer Daylight Hours = More Visibility – When the clocks move forward, billboards and outdoor ads remain visible for extended hours. This means more impressions and a longer window for engagement with your business.
2️⃣ People Are Spending More Time Outside – Warmer weather encourages more outdoor activities, from shopping trips to events and festivals. This increases footfall and traffic in key locations where your campaign can make a lasting impression.
3️⃣ Less Competition Than Peak Holiday Seasons – Unlike the winter holiday rush, spring offers a less cluttered advertising landscape, allowing your business to stand out without excessive competition.
4️⃣ A Fresh Start for Marketing Campaigns – preparing for the new quarter (Q2) is the perfect time to refresh your advertising strategy. If you didn’t hit your Q1 marketing goals, spring OOH campaigns can help reposition your business for success.
5️⃣ Aligning with Seasonal Buying Habits – Consumers are gearing up for seasonal purchases, whether it’s spring cleaning, home improvements, travel plans, outdoor activities, retail therapy, a new car etc. Placing your business’s solution in front of your target at the right time can drive conversions.
How to Make the Most of Spring OOH Advertising
- Choose High-Traffic Locations: Billboards near shopping centers/retail parks, high streets and event venues will maximise your exposure.
- Use Bright, Eye-Catching Designs: Spring is all about color—make sure your campaign is vibrant and visually appealing (our in-house Design team are experts in this area).
- Incorporate a Clear Call to Action: Encourage engagement with a simple, direct message, whether it’s visiting your website, calling for a quote, or and arrow to visit your shop front.
- Leverage Local Trends: Align your campaign with spring events, holidays, or community happenings to make it more relevant.
Make the most of the season and ensure your brand gets seen in all the right places!
