The outdoor advertising viewing audience is mostly mobile. People travel swiftly in vehicles or walk at a brisk pace while they perform the activities of daily life. Mobility limits the potential viewing time of an outdoor advertising message to only a few seconds. Because of limited time exposure, outdoor advertising design requires a disciplined and succinct creative approach.

Manju Yagnik, Vice Chairperson, Nahar Group

Increase in creative content and better technology is required for better impact of outdoor advertising. Thus, the drawback of absence of sound and motion, that limit the target audience for the hoarding, can be done away with. Another difficulty in using outdoor advertising is lack of clearly stated norms for display of hoardings. These norms should be specified so that multiple hoardings are not placed at the same time in the same location. This may dilute the impact of the various hoardings placed in that area.

Prasenjeet Bagchi, Chief Marketing Officer, SMS Taxicabs

Every advertiser has their own understanding and need of media. OOH has often been used as a primary launch medium to break a campaign, or even before that, to create teasers. It’s not a choice, but a compulsion for every advertiser to include OOH in their plan; else they lose out on the large traveling population during their long timeshare of the day. But the share of spend on OOH in the plan outlay has to also grow.

Robin Carruthers, Managing Director, Mediascope Publicitas - OOH

In almost every developed market research plays an important role. However, in India, unfortunately we have still a little way to go before we have a common currency. The sheer diversity of our geographical spread and the dynamics of the industry make it extremely difficult to have one. I don’t think this is going to be feasible or a plausible action. However, a simple matrix for evaluation of a campaign could work to at least inform a client of its effectiveness.
