Outdoor Advertising - Bus shelters

Hi again

Today whilst commuting to work I came in contact with the Adidas 'Boost your run' marketing message in the form of outdoor bus shelter advertising.


 Some interesting facts: 


  • Approximately 6 million people use the Buses in London every day
  • 78% of people do not read a Regional Daily Newspaper
  • 53% of people do not listen to Commercial Radio
  • BUT 86% of people can recall a Bus advert they’ve seen



This static on-street-presence from Adidas was in the form of traditional large posters as well as digital panels. 

The advertisements were identical at each location, however I did notice that at a bus shelter opposite a Westfield Shopping Mall the ad had one slight clever difference.  It had a retailer (JD Sport) tagged at the bottom of the ad, informing consumers of where they can purchase the product from.




 Bye for now!  Cheers Andy
