This time, lets shake it up and start with\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nI like to ride my bicycle, bicycle! is what our promo staff will be saying when they\u2019re riding around the streets with your advertisement attached to the back of their bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You may be familiar with scooter billboards, which we unfortunately don\u2019t have (we used to, but that\u2019s a story for another day), but bike boards are our alternative. You might think they don\u2019t sound as cool or travel as fast as a scooter, but look at it this way, push bikes are slower than scooters, so passers-by are going to get more time to read your message!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like our walking boards<\/a>, bike boards offer the unique opportunity to get a direct message across to the public. By direct, we mean that our riders can talk to passers-by about your campaign. If you do have specific messages you want to pass on, (in addition to what is on the advertising sign of course), just let us know in advance so we can tell our riders.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWant to draw some extra attention? Of course, you do! So why not play some audio? The trailers have built in speakers, so you can do just that \u2013 imagine your client\/companies jingle riding down the street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But wait, there\u2019s more! They are also backlit, which means you can have early-morning or night-time activity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Flexibility, plenty of flexibility. <\/h5>\n\n\n\n
Remember how I said they\u2019re a flexible OOH advertising format? Well, listen to this, if you want them to just sit up in one key location for the majority of the day, that\u2019s fine. But if you want them riding around for the majority of the day, that\u2019s also fine. Bet you\u2019ve never seen a wall mounted billboard riding down the street, (probably because it\u2019s mounted to a wall, but that\u2019s the point)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking of flexibility, unlike a lot of OOH advertising formats, bike boards give your client the chance to get to places where a lot of other advertisers can\u2019t go, such as the footpath outside of a train station for example\u2026assuming there\u2019s no other billboard fixtures out the front of the station here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So that\u2019s the why, here\u2019s the\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe bike trailer is three-sided, allowing for an easy view of your messaging no matter where passers-by are standing\/driving. In addition to this, having three sides offers the chance to have multiple messages on your board \u2013 you can have various messaging on each panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I guess in terms of the how, there\u2019s not much more to it – all you need to do is tell us where you want us to go and supply some great artwork<\/a>, and away we go!<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s as simple as that really.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other things to note<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nIf you read our previous blog post \u2018The outdoor advertising how\u2019s and whys – walking boards\u2019<\/a> then you might be about to get a bit of d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu in the below section \u2013 (the answers are basically the same).<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat do the riders wear?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s probably something you don\u2019t think about, until you need to think about it right before your campaign is set to start. If your client wants our riders to wear their branding (t-shirts etc), that\u2019s not a problem at all. Just tell us in advance and we\u2019ll tell you the best place to send the clothing to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or, if they don\u2019t have a preference, we ask our riders to wear plain black clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is the lead time?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nIdeally, it\u2019s great to have 10 days, but we can usually make it work if you need more time. Always feel free to check with us during the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How many boards do I get?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe boards start off in a pair, who stick together throughout the day. You are more than welcome to add on additional boards to suit your campaign brief. For example, you want to target two different suburbs on the same day, then we would recommend having two pairs of bike boards sent out for your campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How long do they go out for each day?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nNo matter how many you end up with, they go out for a standard five-hour on-site media day (just to clarify, these five hours are consecutive). Although, if you wish to do longer media days, we can certainly oblige.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Are flyers and sampling allowed?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
