Advertising Trends in 2023

In a constantly changing world, it can be hard to keep up with the latest in advertising technology.

But some trends you simply can’t miss in 2023. From billboards to street furniture to mobile devices, here are BillboardsIn’s top five can’t-miss advertising trends this year.

1

3D Billboards

They can be a bit pricier, but 3D billboards are great visual hooks that catch attention in person and online. They’ve gone viral plenty of times, opening the door to mobile and online exposure too.

Putting your ad in the third dimension makes for a visually interesting billboard and leaves your audience feeling the impact of your product before they even buy it.

Digital and Interactive OOH Ads

Recent technological advances have driven valuable innovation in OOH, which is why digital outdoor advertising is such a hot topic. Integrating outdoor ads with everyday technology engages an active audience:

Rotating digital billboards
Augmented reality (360° video)
QR codes

Changing billboards and immersive ads earn more attention than a traditional billboard or street ad.

3

Mobile OOH

Spend more than 10 minutes on a highway and you’ve probably seen a semi-truck with an ad on the side. A fully mobile ad reaches more customers than a static billboard as it passes thousands of people, and its eye-level placement and quick viewing make it more memorable.

4

Cross-Platform Campaigns & Smart Billboards

Many brands succeed by making OOH one part of their total campaign. Connect your smart billboard or kiosk with mobile and video advertising through QR codes, social media, mobile data, and geotagging.

Extending your reach to mobile and online gives consumers an easier, more immediate way to interact with your product.
5

Creative and Eye-Catching Designs

To succeed, your OOH ad has to draw people in and hold their attention as they pass. From colorful designs to clear, stylized fonts, every graphic choice matters. Design can tell audiences about your product and values in one fell swoop.
