MOBILE BILLBOARDS THAT POP!

A quick note for all advertising “idea” people that are looking for a creative method to promote your clients’ brands: Now Billboards2Go.com is your One-Stop Resource for 3-dimensional signage fabrication for our fleet of Mobile Billboards Advertising Trucks.

As the OOH media industry is stepping up its game in innovation, Billboards2go.com is leading the way for the mobile billboard category. With over 15 years of quality mobile billboard experience targeting the east coast, no other company will give you more bang for your buck!

3-Dimensional billboards are an emerging new medium that has evolved from the traditional media of 2-dimensional billboards. 3D billboard construction used to be a time consuming and expensive endeavor, but with the amazing technological advances in recent years, the process has become significantly more convenient and affordable, allowing advertisers to take advantage of this creative new medium.

The appeal of 3D mobile billboards is the compelling visual message that leaves a lasting impression. It allows for a form of creativity and artistic expression that no other medium offers. A 3D mobile billboard is essentially a moving piece of art that delivers a message that creates an immediate and lasting impact on the audience. Additionally, Mobile Billboards will not be ignored and can get quality exposure (during prime time) at multiple location, delivering a diverse audience for the advertiser.

Billboards2Go.com offers traditional high-res printed banners, simple 2-D extensions to elaborate 3-D elements with moving parts and LED lighting effects. Like anything else, the bigger the budget the more expressive and impressive the outcome of the project will be. However, you will be amazed at what we can do with smaller budgets. With your creative input and our in-house production staff, we can collaborate on a design that will turn heads and greatly improve your bottom line. For further information on our creative process, please contact Russell, my company’s Production Manager at graphics@billboards2go.com. Thanks!

The 2015 Celebrate Israel Parade in New York City

Chalk up another successful event for Billboards2Go.com from this past Sunday. By utilizing two state-of-the-art mobile billboard units (moonlighting as parade floats) my company’s clients received a lot of “bang for their buck.” Not only does our mobile billboard’s huge sign space make a terrific canvas for a parade message, the quick production turnaround and reasonable rate is a much smarter alternative to the more complex, time consuming and costly traditional parade float.

About the Event:  From its humble beginnings, back in 1965 (traveling down Riverside Drive in New York City) grew a huge tribute marching up Fifth Avenue’s prominent parade route. According to this year’s figures, the Celebrate Israel Parade drew a crowd in the hundreds of thousands with thirty thousand participants. It was a sea of U.S. and Israeli flags, colorful balloons, marching bands, decorated floats and thousands of students grouped with vibrant matching tee-shirts, veterans and VIPs, such as Mayor Bill de Blasio and Governor Andrew Cuomo, all transforming Fifth Avenue’s typical bumper-to-bumper car traffic into a venue of joyful celebration.

I would like to take this blog opportunity to thank my clients for choosing Billboards2Go.com to represent their message at the event. StandWithUs.com and JDate.com are two highly regarded organizations with a strong belief that Israel is a nation that is a force for good in the world.

I personally believe Israel often gets a bad rap in the media and elsewhere. But if folks do their research, they will see Israel in a more positive light. Israeli-developed technologies range from cell phones and computers to the latest breakthrough medical procedures used every day around the world. Israel provides humanitarian assistance reaching many needy countries that require immediate critical aid. When it comes to disaster response, Israel has used its vast experience to assist countries impacted by natural disasters, terrorism, disease or war. Bar none, Israel is known for “making the desert bloom.” Israel has pioneered and shared its extensive agricultural techniques with the world. In addition, Israel contributes to a cleaner planet with cutting-edge renewable energy and water technologies. As nations struggle to make the best use of their resources, Israel’s technologies promise to improve the health and living standards of hundreds of millions across the globe.

Currently, the United States and Israel are close friends and allies. The continued strength of the U.S.-Israel alliance is rooted in the shared values of the two nations. So, if any nation deserves a day of celebration… Israel is the perfect candidate and the Celebrate Israel Parade up Fifth Ave was a wonderful tribute, which Billboards2Go.com was a proud participant!

Mobile Billboards Make Impressive Parade Floats!

What does JDate.com and StandWithUs.com have in common? Well, besides the apparent dedication to Jewish causes, they both will be represented at the “Celebrate Israel Parade” in New York City by Billboards2Go.com. Not only does the company’s mobile billboards make mean lean targeted advertising machines, they also double as quick, convenient, affordable and creative parade floats.

On May 31, 2015, the Celebrate Israel Parade will be traveling down Fifth Avenue from 57th Street to 74th Street (11am-4pm) The Parade will be on FOX MY9 from 12 to 2pm. It will also be live streamed on www.CelebrateIsraelny.org from 12 to 3pm. Quoted directly from their website: “This year’s 2015 Theme — “Israel Imagines.” The founders of Israel had a dream. They imagined a vibrant, independent and Jewish state that would not only be a haven for Jews from all over the world, but also one that would incorporate the best characteristics of its citizens: brains and brawn, creativity, determination, fairness and imagination – a state whose greatest natural resource is its people who could imagine that future – one that would benefit the whole world! Today’s Israel is a result of that dream. We invite you to use your imagination and creativity to highlight some of the things that Israel imagined and continues to imagine – some that have come to fruition and some still to be achieved.”

For a cost effective solution for representation in a parade, a mobile billboard makes sense on many levels. For one, it is quick to implement. Our basic standard turnaround is as little as 10 days. It is visually impressive with about 500 square feet of message space. In terms of presentation, Billboards2Go.com’s production team adds decorative tinsel to the lower section of the mobile billboard giving it the official parade float look. As for the printed banners, the creative may be anything the client needs from a simple message to a complex full color, high-resolution design. It's relatively quick and easy to print a 10' x 22' banner. For the more adventurous clients, (with a larger budget and more time) Billboards2Go.com production department offers 2-D and 3-D embellishments including moving parts and LED lighting effects.

We are a trusted media vendor to many major brands as well as countless small businesses within the NY/NJ/CT/PA markets. We are a mobile billboard company you may rely on.

A Mobile Billboard for a Montel Williams TV Commercial

According to many, If you can make it in New York, you should be able to make it anywhere. That's because New York is the most dynamic and competitive city in the world, at least that is what the "Global City Competitiveness Index" states. Other cities ranking high on the list include London and Paris.

While the sheer size of New York's economy may play a part in its high ranking, the index takes a variety of factors into account, including a city's quality of life, human capital, as well as its business and regulatory environment. Although it should, the ranking does not specifically account for the heavy traffic throughout most of the city’s roads. Everyone knows the traffic in New York City is appalling. You have to deal with crazy taxis, buses and trucks and seemingly suicidal bikers and pedestrians. Keep in mind that pedestrians will cross wherever and whenever they want.

The story of New York is unarguably one about its people: who they are, where they reside and work, how they live and play. New York City offers incomparable museums, attractions, restaurants, hotels, theaters, entertainment and shopping. The amount of visitors (international and domestic) to New York City in 2013 was 54.3 million and they spent a whopping $38.8 billion.

Now that I painted a vivid picture of New York, in particular Manhattan, you need to imagine working here. In this town, “time is money” -  a term coined by Benjamin Franklin. Imagine again that you are going to shoot a TV commercial in Midtown at Columbus Circle by the Time Warner building. The sheer logistics is overwhelming and the red tape extensive! For the producer (in this case, the legendary TV talk show host, Montel Williams) the stakes are extremely high. You have a certain window of opportunity to get it right the first time. With a huge crew, many extras and lots of equipment costing a small fortune, the need for everything to go smoothly as clockwork is a prerequisite.

That is where Billboards2Go.com comes in… The TV commercial shot this past month called for a large billboard to be the backdrop of the event as well as driving around the city (as shown in the photo above.) A custom fabricated display with several lighted mirror stations stood at the base of the truck . This is where the “ordinary women off the street” would try the advertised beauty product “Derm Exclusive.” The commercial took three days to shoot and lasted several hours each day. The billboard featured Dr. Andrew Ordon, Board-certified Plastic Surgeon and TV Host.

Why Billboards2Go.com opposed to another mobile billboard vendor? The reason is simple; Billboards2Go.com offers a top quality product and service at competitive rates. Besides the fact that we use specially designed billboards that may elevate the sign frames for extra exposure, our high resolution printing capacity is perfect for up close presentations. Our reputation as a turnkey, reliable business partner who is familiar with the Manhattan market was also a key contributing factor to participating in the Montel Williams project.

When the stakes are high and the time is of the essence, Billboards2Go.com delivers!  Montel Williams found that working with Billboards2Go.com was a smart move. We contributed to the overall success of the project by being on time and ready to work as promised. The director of the commercial, Chris Strand was quite impressed with our presentation and stated the billboard looked fantastic and he would be happy to work with us again… Chock up another satisfied customer! 

Domino’s Pizza Brings Their Recruiting Efforts To The Busy Streets of New York City

Domino’s Pizza Corporate hired Billboards2Go.com in May of 2014 as a part of their marking strategy for a job recruitment effort. With a bold and clever mobile billboard advertisement stating Domino’s can put “dough in your pocket” - the billboard unit successfully targeted specific neighborhoods in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx recruiting for Delivery Drivers, Bikers and Assistant Managers.

Billboards2Go.com is proud to work with a fast food innovator and powerhouse like Domino’s Pizza. Each day, more than 1 million customers enjoy hot, delicious Domino’s Pizza products on every inhabited continent on Earth.  Domino’s Pizza operates over 10,000 stores in more than 70 countries. For Domino’s to turn to Billboards2Go.com for assistance with their recruiting effort shows they understand that Billboards2Go.com is a trusted and effective media source to the food industry.

Over the past decade, Billboards2Go.com has worked with a variety of companies from retail, financial, automotive and entertainment; but food brands have always been the most critical when it comes to presentation. That is why many top companies in the food industry consistently rely on Billboards2Go.com to represent their brands to the public with new, state-of-the-art mobile billboards.

Another unique aspect of the Domino’s Pizza ad message was a tag line “Enter “billboard” as your referral source to get a free cake on your next order.” The clever additional copy helped identify the effectiveness of the media placement and execution on the client’s side. As far as effectiveness, the Domino’s Pizza executive who hired Billboards2Go.com said after the campaign completion that the mobile billboard recruitment effort was very successful and working with the Billboards2Go.com staff has been a wonderful experience. What’s better than that!
