4. Time-Specific Advertising with
Customized Playlists
CUSTOMIZED PLAYLISTS take full advantage of digital billboards by allowing advertisers to show time-specific messages. {
{
For example, a local TV station could set up a playlist that advertises their morning show, their daytime programming, and their primetime lineup while people drive home from work.
This practice is known as “dayparting,”
it’s one of the GREATEST
advantages of digital outdoor.
Daktronics digital billboards also have the ability to display
REAL-TIME ADVERTISEMENTS.
Real-Time AdvertisingCreates a number of possibilities, and
those possibilities add up to more potential clients.

3. More Advertising Options = More
Potential Advertisers
BEFORE
BEFORE digital outdoor, the cost
of outdoor advertising was prohibitive to some businesses. Many “mom and pop” stores couldn’t afford to buy billboard space for any extended period of time, limiting the list of potential clients.
Digital outdoor has changed by offering unprecedented flexibility.
Small businesses now have manyoptions for outdoor advertising.
They can:
Advertise during specific hours of the day.
Advertise for shorter periods of time.
Share space with another small business

Our history:
Our history:one of humble beginnings and a focus on customer care.
It’s a little known fact,
but the majority of our history was spent as the little guys.
We were
founded by two university professors in a small South Dakotan town, and we were as small as small businesses get.
We didn’t have much of an advertising budget or more than one company
car. In fact, at one point our business was run out of a tire repair shop.
But we’re proud of this history.

It speaks to who we are and

company did. We started
small.
We built support and service operations from the
ground up.
We opened a
120,000-square-footfacility specifically for digital billboard
manufacturing.
And we developed
innovative good-looking reliable
digital billboards to save our customers time and money.
