Every business can profit from advertising with portable signs. Why? Because our highways, thoroughfares and city streets are where the majority of Canadian citizens spend a large proportion of their time when they’re not at work or home.
Regardless of whether you live in Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg or St. John’s, commuting is a fact of life for millions of Canadians across this country. The 2016 census found that 1.5 million Canadians spent at least 60 minutes commuting to work, with 854,000 of them spending that time in a car, truck or van either as driver or passenger.
For drivers, it’s important to keep one eye on road at all times, but there’s still plenty of time to look around and explore. If you’re not positioning a strategically placed custom-printed advertising sign for them to see during their commute, then you’re not taking advantage of the most cost-effective means of spending your hard-earned advertising dollars.
