This strategy involves creating a design that clearly defines your company and image and displaying it by entry and exit points of your community.
Use your billboard to define your location and how a customer can find you.
Choose sites in areas where you seek to gain new customers outside of your traditional
market area.
Promote your business image near a particular site because of unique qualities of
that location (i.e. lake, movie theatre, race track).
Your COMSTOR Rep will help you determine what kind of strategy will work best for your business.

After your board has been designed, weʼll print and install it at your elected location. Our billboards are constructed of 100% steel and we proudly boast they are some of the best maintained in the industry. Other companies use temporary paper boards that can wear out long before your message does. At COMSTOR, our signs are wrapped with high resolution advertising vinyl guaranteed not to tear or fade, making us one of the most trusted names in outdoor advertising.
Your board will remain displayed for the duration of your contract period, with first the option to renew in the same location if you choose to do so. Many customers do… becase billboards work!
