Using
Vehicle Wraps to Promote Your Business
Is your vehicle
doing anything to improve your business? Think
about all the places your vehicle goes each day:
to and from work, out to lunch, shopping,
running errands, sitting in parking lots.
These are all opportunities for people to learn
about your company and products. Think about all
the people who pass by your vehicle each day.
Are you giving these potential customers a
reason to find out more about your company?
You would be certain to catch the eye of those
potential customers if you covered your car with
a vehicle wrap, a digitally printed
self-adhesive vinyl advertisement that travels
wherever you go in your vehicle. You will be
promoting your company or products just by doing
the driving you are already doing. Almost any
sized business can benefit from this creative
and cost effective form of outdoor media. No
matter what product or service you are promoting
a vehicle wrap is sure to get your message
noticed.
The full color graphics used in vehicle wraps
have been found to be an excellent way to
attract both new and existing customers. With
the millions of impressions that you will make
with vehicle wraps you can see that they are
really very cost effective. More than just
creating a moving billboard, vehicle wraps give
you a three dimensional marketing tool that is
certain to leave a lasting impression on your
target audience. Using a marketing technique
that is creative and innovative is also likely
to create more of an impact, staying in the
minds of those who see it.
The adhesive used for vehicle wraps is
semi-permanent, which means that you can remove
it whenever you want without causing any damage
to the vehicle. You can use vehicle wraps on
just about anything that has wheels or an
exterior shell. While vans are the most popular
vehicle used for vehicle wraps they are any
commonly placed on cars, trains, buses, trucks,
and even airplanes. Vehicle wraps allow you to
bring your advertising message to areas where it
would be otherwise cost prohibitive to spread
your message. Instead of spending thousands of
dollars to purchase advertising space at that
trade show, sporting event, convention, grand
opening, or concert, just drive your wrapped
vehicle around the event or park it in a central
location. Unlike radio or television advertising
your message can not be turned down or off.
People will have to notice your three
dimensional marketing message.
Vehicle wraps are normally installed by
specialty signage companies, and there is no
standard rate for each wrap. There are a variety
of elements that go into determining the actual
price for each vehicle wrap including the number
of vehicles that will be wrapped, how detailed
and involved the printing process will be, the
size of the vehicle, the amount of vinyl that
will be required to wrap the vehicle, how hours
will a designer need to complete the project,
how many hours will the installers need for this
application, and how many total installers you
will need. All of those things go into the final
price for the job.
Installing a vehicle wrap is a very precise and
detailed project. You need to print your image
on thin strips of vinyl film, and then install
them seamlessly. All the materials used in a
vehicle wrap installation need to be resistant
to heat, UV rays, rain, and cold. Once installed
the image should not block visibility, even
though it will cover almost the entire vehicle.
You also need to use a good adhesive, as you do
not want the vehicle wrap to come off before you
are ready to remove it.
Recent innovations in software, inks, laminates,
and high performance vinyl are what make vehicle
wraps possible. The first step is to make a
sophisticated engineering drawing of the vehicle
which will serve as your template. Computer
software is then used to conform the graphic
images to the template. These images are then
printed onto large vinyl decals which
professional installers seamlessly apply to the
car. Other low cost alternatives to vehicle
wraps include bumper stickers, magnetic signs,
and window decals. There are many companies that
find that these alternatives to vehicle wraps
are fine for meeting the advertising needs of
their firm.
While vehicle wraps appear to be just giant
billboards, they are more effective as they can
go anywhere and their novelty attracts added
attention. Their mobility means they are
constantly out there exposing your company’s
message to both new and existing customers. If
you are looking for the most effective and cost
effective form of advertising out there today,
look no further than vehicle advertising.
