The Advantages of Outdoor Advertising

Why is outdoor advertising in Berlin so cool?

I am impactful!

Outdoor advertising is one of the last forms of mass medium which has a continually expanding audience - This is especially true when it comes to steadily growing urban cities like Berlin. Now more than ever, urban city-dwellers spend large amounts of time moving from place to place via public transportation, bike, or car. When looking at the growing population numbers as well as data summarizing the most popular means of transport, it is clear that urbanization and the need for increased mobility has become a consistent trend in recent years. Many of those living in large cities are starting to spend less and less time at home - particularly in the evenings. Hobbies and Individual interests such as fitness, events or shopping are likely to keep a growing number of people spending time either outdoors or in the consumer sphere. Outdoor advertising thus allows advertisers to make contact with millions of potential customers. Securing an advertising location with around the clock visibility in a cultural capital with diverse demographics like Berlin is a sure-fire way to take any business to the next level.

This is 41,8% of the population living in Berlin, with whom in the gross contact amount is approximately 2.680.000 - meaning to reach a thousand people (CPM) costs roughly 2,46 euros - these numbers aren’t even including commuters and tourists!
