Traditional Out-of-Home Media Continues Growth

September 21, 2015

Out-of-Home (OOH) advertising revenue rose 3.8% in the second quarter of 2015 compared to the previous year, accounting for $2.25 billion, based on figures released by the Outdoor Advertising Association of America (OAAA).

In contrast to the OOH advertising revenue growth, statistics from Kantar Media reveal that total ad spending in the United States was down almost 7% for the quarter, and OOH and local radio are the only traditional media with significant growth.

In this Research Brief From the Center for Media Research, Jack Loechner provides a ranking of top OOH advertisers, based on their spending, as released by the OAAA.  This ranking includes:

-McDonald’s

-Apple

-Metro PCS

-Warner Bros Pictures

-Geico

The article includes this quote by Stephen Freitas, OAAA Chief Marketing Officer, “…the most significant trend in advertising today is the shift to digital… this hasn’t impacted OOH the way it has other traditional media, because OOH complements… digital marketing… especially mobile… the fastest growing of all digital platforms… ”
