FAQ
What is Gas Pump Topper Advertising?
Gas pump advertising is a hybrid of outdoor
and place-based media and can be targeted to reach specific geographic or
demographic areas - or used for market-wide coverage. We place
full-color ads using uv inks for printing and place them in frames and display them
on the top of gas pumps at high-traffic gas stations and convenience stores.

Which gas stations work with AllOver Media to
do gas pump toppers advertising?
We work major branded stations such as Exxon, BP,
Citgo, Pure, 76 and some independents.
How many signs do I
get at each gas station?
You will receive half the gas pump
toppers on each of the gasoline pumps. So if there are three pumps you
will receive half the signs space “3 signs in this case” or up to four signs
per station. Most stations have four pumps.
What is Indoor Advertising?
We post full-color ads in attractive black frame above urinals in the men's rooms and on the back of stall

What do you mean by name recognition?
Name recognition refers to whether or not your prospect can say that he/she
has heard of your company or product before. Your prospects might be quoted as
saying: "Oh yes, I've seen their ads everywhere; they must be good."
By displaying your ad in front of your precise target
audience when they are captive and very impressionable, you will be sure to gain
a higher level of brand recognition in the marketplace. With indoor advertising
and gas pump toppers is particularly effective in this area because not only
would your ad be directly in front of your targeted market, but your prospect
will read your ad when he/she is most receptive.
In a restroom, our readers are captive for an average
of one to three minutes. With no way of avoiding our advertisement product,
unless they close their eyes, your prospect is virtually guaranteed to read
your ad. The name recognition phenomenon creates a greater degree of perceived
quality for your product with every ad your prospects see. Not only will your
target audience think of your company more often, but also they will have a
better impression of your organization and thus, a greater likelihood of
becoming customers.
An ad in the Yellow Pages is often chosen because a
consumer recognizes the company.
Can you create excitement about my company?
Top-of-mind awareness refers to creating a level of
excitement about your product or service that the prospects will take with them
to think about on their way. When the opportunity arises to make use of the
information received from your ad, your prospect will know exactly where to go.
With indoor restroom advertising and gas pump toppers advertising it lends
itself to creating this type of long-lasting impression because there is an
opportunity for a product or service to be advertised. We can plant the seeds
for the future.
What kind of return can I expect and how can I
measure it?
We will reach your prospects when they are captive,
with nothing to think about except what they see and read before them. The
nature of our display locations presents your ads where it is a welcome
diversion for an otherwise boring several minutes. Your advertising ad will
give your prospect something to think about when his/her mind would otherwise
have been idle.
Our advertisement will bolster the effectiveness of any
other advertising you are doing in the marketplace. You can expect a marked improvement
in the brand building, name recognition, and top-of-mind awareness of your
product or service among your target audience in the marketplace at large.
It has been our experience that the best way to track
the return on your investment is watch your cash registers.
What is out of home
advertising?
Out-of-home advertising is
essentially any type of advertising that reaches the consumer while he or she
is outside the home (or office). This is in contrast to broadcast, print or
internet advertising, which may be delivered to viewers out-of-home (e.g. via
trade show, newsstand, hotel lobby room), but are more-often viewed in the home
or office.
Out-of-home advertising, therefore, is focused on marketing to consumers
when they are 'on the go' in public places, in-transit or in specific
commercial locations (such as in a retail venue). Billboard advertising is a
traditional out-of-home advertising medium, but there has been significant
growth in digital out-of-home advertising in recent years. "Ad spending on
these media [in the US]
soared 27% in 2006 to $1.69 billion, with accelerated 28% growth expected in
2007,"
Can AllOver Media target my specific market?
Yes! Each AllOver Media location is carefully
selected. The variety of locations to choose from gives you the ability
to target
your indoor media by demographic, geographic, or gender
profiles. This enables you to reach the people you want: The majority of indoor advertisement readers surveyed
classify themselves as between the ages of 21and 45 and employed in a
professional, managerial or sales position. The typical reader has a high
degree of discretionary income. Because we deliver your exact
demographics, you can spend less money on advertising and still hit a higher
percentage of your desired target market.

Can you help increase my market share?
When prompted with general category, how quickly your
company or product name occurs to your prospect is what we consider to be the
result of brand building. It is our opinion
that brand building has a direct relationship to market share. No matter which
advertising medium you choose, a brand building campaign is often quite large
in volume and extends over a period of months, even years. The more you
advertise the greater market share you will potentially gain. We provide a very
cost-effective way to produce brand building in the local market. If your
company sells women's clothing, for instance, the majority of dollars spent on
reaching them will be wasted. We are proud of our ability to target market by
gender. Most people are creatures of habit and will see your ad every time they
return to their favorite establishment. Provided your target has been precisely
identified, your brand-building campaign can produce powerful, long-lasting results.
Do not expect these results overnight; brand building is a process that takes
time.
