Companies employ a number of different forms of advertising and marketing to promote their company and their brand. If your business lends itself to having company vehicles, then these are, potentially, ready-made ‘travelling billboards’ for you to use! Whether you’re trying to get your brand initially noticed, or whether you’re reinforcing an already-established reputation, commercial vehicle branding is a great and effective way to market and advertise your business.
Here are some benefits and details you should consider:
Benefits of commercial vehicle branding
Brand awareness
Vehicle wraps and graphics have been known to boost brand recognition by up 15 times more than other forms of advertising.
Cost effective advertising
There are Government research figures that state that your vehicle could be seen by up to 3,000 people every day as it goes about its journeys – reaching that many people daily makes commercial vehicle branding the most cost-effective form of advertising you can get!
One-off cost
The average lifespan of vehicle graphics is 5 years – so, once applied, there are no more reoccurring costs for sustained advertising. Your initial investment will be less than other forms of media advertising and will generate results for years.
Wider audience
If you think about it, even on your way into, and home from, work, you are constantly advertising your business and your brand. All demographics, regardless, of age, gender, income or ethnicity are exposed to your brand on a daily basis, constantly reinforcing your brand image.
Flexibility
The very process of vehicle wrapping means any graphics and artwork can be quickly and easily removed and replaced, allowing you to update your advertising at any stage.
Protects your vehicle
An added, and important, aspect of vehicle branding is that the vinyl wrapping also protects your vehicles from stone chips, abrasions and everyday road wear and tear! Once the wrapping is finally removed, your vehicle will appear just as the day it was initially covered for your advertising campaign!
A short summary of the different types of vehicle graphics
Stickers or decals
Vinyl lettering and graphics provide an ideal and effective solution for advertising on company vehicles. They are easily applied and, therefore, are easily swapped and replaced as often as required, making them ideal for promotional events. They are waterproof and can be applied to any part of your vehicle, both inside and out!
Car and van wraps
Vehicle wrapping is achieved by applying large sheets of printed vinyl that cover and transform the appearance of your vehicles. They are heated and moulded to the exact contours of your vehicle and will remain in place, and looking as good as new, until you want to remove them at the end of your advertising campaign, or when the vehicle is no longer required.
Magnetic car signs
This is an effective temporary advertising solution. As well as being simple to apply and remove, they are durable and easy to maintain and so are a versatile advertising tool.
