Question: When is it a good idea to use of car, truck and other magnetic signs for advertising purposes?

• Use a magnetic sign if you have steel around: In order to be able to use a magnetic sign, the first requirement is that there is a steel metallic area where magnetic signs can be placed on top.
   
• Do you drive for long hours? We suggest that you get a car or truck magnets if you drive a car or a truck during long hours within a certain community to advertise your business.
  You will be amazed at how many people might not even realize that they saw a magnetic sign in a car or a truck but most likely, the second or third time that they happen to encounter the vehicle on the street, their level of familiarity with the company advertising grows significantly.
   
• Exposure: If you drive a car, minivan, or truck for many hours per day, it is very likely that your car advertising magnets will be seen by thousands or tens of thousands of viewers. That opportunity of exposure that you get in a single day is unmatched to any other advertising opportunity: For most smaller businesses, the traffic on websites amounts to few hundred or few thousand visitors per month. The opportunity is amazing! The same goes for car wraps but that solution is way more expensive
   
• Very affordable: Magnetic signs are so much more affordable than car wrapping! The impact might not be the same but it is so much better than no identification at all.
   
• Convenience: If you use your work vehicle to drive home you might find yourself in trouble when trying to park your work vehicle in your community. Most communities restrict access to commercial vehicles during nighttime and weekends.
  Easy solution: You can remove the magnets from your vehicle when you come back home in the afternoon and reposition them in the morning. You do not get to do that with image-wrapped vehicles.
   
• Magnetic signs for doors or commercial buildings: many warehouses have doors that are protected with a metal sheet embedded in the door. It is ideal to hang large magnetic signs on those doors so that the public can easily identify the business. The sign gives freshness to the entrance.
   
• Where to place magnetic signs in a car or truck: The obvious and most common place is on the sides, usually on the doors. Car door magnets are pretty typical. Make sure that you choose the largest size of magnet that your car door or truck door can handle. A less obvious but extremely effective area is on the back of your car. A magnetic door sign or trunk door signs are reported as being very effective. While driving, there is almost always someone behind you, both in the center and sides of your car that is being exposed to the magnetic sign. There is a good chance that they would see your message.
   
• Magnetic signs on commercial trucks and vehicles: Access to certain State and Federal properties require the vehicle coming in to be properly identified. The lack of identification can turn you away causing many logistic problems to your company. Vinyl letter cuts and magnetic signs are frequently used to comply with that requirement.
