The service industry is a volume game. Profit margins are generally low and customer turnover is generally high. The upshot? Your business needs to keep bringing in new customers all the time if you\u2019re to thrive in a highly competitive market. Transit adverts can help you to drive a diverse range of clientele to your premises.<\/p>\n
Why should I advertise on buses and trams?<\/strong><\/p>\n In the digitally-driven world, you could be forgiven for thinking that your advertising efforts were best left online. However, bus and tram ads have a number of unique advantages especially for those in the food service industry;<\/p>\n Bus ads and food-related businesses can be two very complementary flavours. Here are some great ways to get the best out of your outdoor ads.<\/p>\n Use images that make your food look irresistible<\/strong><\/p>\n Your adverts will be seen by lots of hungry people on their way home from work, just itching for an excuse not to cook tonight. Use a photographer who\u2019ll make the colours and textures of the food in your adverts so vivid that viewers can practically smell it.<\/p>\n Direct your prospects directly<\/strong><\/p>\n Write copy that reaches out to them. Make explicit mention of where they are and what they\u2019re doing. Use direct reader address and rhetorical questions. For example, when faced with an image of a delicious juicy cheeseburger coupled with a message like \u201cDo you really <\/em>fancy leftovers again, tonight?\u201d readers with low blood sugar will get a strong <\/em>urge to change their meal plans for the evening*.<\/p>\n Let them know where you are<\/strong><\/p>\n Make sure that viewers know where they can find you. If they know that they\u2019re only a stop or two away from a taste sensation they won\u2019t forget, you\u2019ll be that much harder for them to resist. Even if they aren\u2019t that hungry when they see your advert, they may file your address away in their memories for future reference.<\/p>\n Let them know why you\u2019re different<\/strong><\/p>\n If you can use this as an opportunity to differentiate yourself from your local competitors, so much the better. If you offer better value, a more nutritious product or higher quality ingredients than your competitors, this is a great opportunity to build extra value in your product.<\/p>\n Make it easy for them to order<\/strong><\/p>\n The easier you make it for viewers to order, the better chance you have of converting them into regular customers. Are you on JustEat, Uber Eats or Deliveroo? Make sure you incorporate their logo into your advert. They can even use their smartphones to place an order while they\u2019re in transit and have it hot and waiting for them when they get home. That\u2019s a really <\/em>appealing prospect!<\/p>\n How we can help<\/strong><\/p>\n At Adverta, we are highly skilled and experienced when it comes to bringing quality advertising solutions to restaurants, cafes, takeaways and bars.
