Advertising Balloons


By Eddie Tobey

As a consumer, you probably have been in contact with different forms of advertising. Like most people, you have grown tired of the usual advertisements and commercials that seem to assail you anywhere you turn.

While you watch your favorite program or listen to the radio, you are bombarded by an array of commercials in the process. If you surf the Internet, you will find an incessant flow of advertisements from pop up windows to big flashing site banners. Reading the daily newspaper also seems to shower you with different products and services available on the market. For most people, however, these advertisements do not achieve recall and do not stick in the minds of their intended audiences. There is suddenly a need for innovative forms of advertising and promotions to recapture the public’s attention.

One of the more unique ways to advertise your company, event, product, or service is to use advertising balloons. These are big blimps usually mounted on top of a building. Advertising balloons are used mainly by companies so as to attract and bring in customers and patrons. They are mostly mounted outside or on top of a company’s building so as to ensure a great range of visibility and reach. These advertising balloons come in different shapes, sizes, colors and hues, and designs. They also hold advertisements and promotions, and they could be customized as per the company’s preferences.

Using advertising balloons is a huge advantage for businesses and companies. Compared to using and renting a billboard space, they allow companies to save more. The simple reason behind this is that utilizing advertising balloons means that there would be no billboard fees, rental fees, or advertisement fees to pay. The companies would only have to spend for the advertising balloon itself, and they would not have to worry about any other expenditures.

Since most of these advertising balloons are used outdoors, they are made from sturdy material so as to withstand different conditions. They can, however, also be used indoors. Some of these are ready for immediate delivery, but most require several days or weeks of notice before they could be actually delivered.
