This is not an ordinance that can be modified at a later date these are legally binding agreements between the City of Tampa and the billboard giants Clear Channel and CBS Outdoors. City Council will revisit the issue on March 5th but the only time to speak out is before Council starts on the agenda. For information from other communities and talking pointsCity Council took up the issue of the settlement agreements between the City of Tampa and Clear Channel and CBS Outdoors on February 5th. As was said during the public comments and echoed by some members of City Council, the original settlement agreement was awful and this one was merely bad. I guess that is improvement. It has now been delayed until March 5th. It was good to see this process slowed or delayed. Councilman John Dingfelder made a good connection in asking what was the initial reason f...

Using the Audio Spotlight technology, sound can be focused to only a specific area, and provide audio just to that small region - all the way from a rooftop. The system projects an isolated beam of sound down onto a focused area of the sidewalk and people who pass by the billboard are entertained by the sudden message, and their attention is directed to the billboard itself. The sound of a women's voice whispers, "Who's there? Who's There? ...It's not your imagination."

happY emploYees are BillBoards
2007-12-31 00:56:00 I say this all the time, but it's good to know that other people agree with me. :) According to Outlaw Consulting, a qualitative research firm based in San Francisco. When Gen Y Trendsetters are asked to explain why they love their favorite stores, they talk a lot about the employees. Their perception of the workers’ job satisfaction has a huge impact on their feelings about the brand. One Trendsetter noted that after seeing a large “We’re Hiring” sign outside In N Out that listed all of the employee benefits—high wage, paid vacations, etc.—she felt proud to be eating at the restaurant. And several panelists say their love for American Apparel or Trader Joe’s stems from the fact that they have friends who work there and love their jobs. These companies have created a powerful kind of advertising through their employees. Those that find a way to not only ensure happy employees, but to covertly spread the message about it, will win the respect and loy...

Billboards Versus My Brochure
2007-12-29 00:01:00 While I am writing this, I am staring out of my hotel window and guess what it is that captured my attention - a huge billboard. This billboard does not contain anything but three words: Explore. Adventure. Fun. And one picture of the deep blue sea. Right now, I am tempted to check out of my room and just abandon whatever I am doing to just do that. I am not very familiar with marketing but I thought that was powerful -very few words yet the message gets through. Those three words have occupied my thoughts and to the extent that I had to write something about it. If it was intended to catch my attention then I would say they ae quite successful. As I compare that message with the travel brochure I got at the hotel lobby, I thought the brochure was a complete waste. As I scan through the brochure right now, I just realized that it did not have the same effect. First, it was cluttered. There were just too many words and I hate reading! It told me ab...

SEO vs. PPC vs. Paid Billboards
2007-10-05 23:44:00 I just read an article regarding SEO vs. Pay Per Click on an internet forum. The article summed up what it means to appear # 1 through #6 in Google's natural search perfectly. The quote was "Having the first spot or even the 5th or 6th in Google for your keywords is like having a huge billboard in the middle of Times Square." Think about that for a minute. Let that sink in. Got it? Good. Let's continue. The article goes on to say "That kind of traffic is intense and the exposure is priceless! We can say the same about a great ranking on a PPC campaign, but remember one thing - you will always have to pay for it. Free clicks in sponsored search? Never."Let's examine the first statement. Imagine being a major retailer and one morning you wake up to hear that posting a billboard of your most prized product in Times Square is now free and that the duration of that ad campaign could be indefinite as long as you correctly setup your billboard. Do you think Steve Jobs would pass on a op...
