Even though consumers are engrossed in digital platforms these days, Billboards are still considered to be a premium advertising medium.

Here we share a few tips on how to design a billboard advert for maximum return on spend and to create memorable and engaging adverts that motivate your audience to take action.

Include imaging or design that will easily communicate your message whilst attracting your target audience. Try to use a single image instead of a combination of various images. Use high contrast colour combinations.

Billboard adverts should be smart yet simple to assimilate and not cause your audience to miss the message because it’s difficult to comprehend instantly.
