OOH has seamingly gained a lot of talkability and popularity lately - which for me, someone that lives and breathes it, is a breath of fresh air.
Sure, we have our issues as every channel does but it has been a positive reinforcement of going where the #attention is. Not only us that consume media all day long but to the audiences we are trying to connect with, at large.
- From Naked 's clever spin on creative messaging, to collaborating with local businesses like Stephan Bredell and Platō coffee.
- Melon Mobile recent launch hijacking well recognised and proudly South African Brands in The Courier Guy, Veldskoen Shoes and #Lift Airlines
- Showmax & Capitec combining forces to bring the Premier League to more households.
-KFC South Africa ALWAYS taking full advantage of displaying the most mouth watering larger than life display of their unique offerings such as their donut burger.
There are so many clever partnerships at play, and there is no better playground than #ooh & #dooh.
A really exciting time to be in this space and see many well-known brands, and some not so known, take full advantage of the only medium that drives fame like no other.
