Stand out Stands

Why Choose Roller Banners UK?

In this digital age, you could be forgiven for thinking that traditional-style advertising has had its day, and that roller banners no longer serve a purpose. But you’d be wrong. Roller Banners UK continue to offer inspiring, highly visual displays creating awareness and prompting further customer interest.

The great thing about printed marketing tools, such as roller banner stands, is that they can be used in conjunction with online marketing and social media. Their very visible presence attracts the attention of potential customers, who will then seek out further information via the internet.

The truth is that online marketing campaigns can be easier, quicker, and sometimes more cost effective than printed advertising, but it is also true that because of spam filters and other legal considerations, online marketing can only reach people who are already customers. Printed advertising tools can reach people who may not be looking on the internet for businesses.

And there’s something else to be aware of: “The vast majority of digital advertising is not being viewed at all, with many marketers still failing to apply effectiveness techniques learned from print and out-of-home channels,” according to a new study by research firm Lumen.

Since January 2016, Lumen has used laptop-mounted eye tracking cameras on 300 consumers’ laptops to collect visual data on what they notice when they are online.

It found that only 35% of digital display ads received any views at all. And, of those, only 9% of ads received more than a second’s worth of attention. Only 4% of ads, meanwhile, received more than 2 seconds of engagement. But notably, printed ads are typically seen by 75% of readers for an average of 2.2 seconds.

What makes them so good?

Roller banners are retractable and portable and can be easily stored when not in use and transported to wherever the business or event needs advertising. It only takes one person to set them up and they come in a range of sizes and finishes to suit all budgets. Value is added when printing on both sides, doubling the visibility of whatever it is you are offering, and they are of large enough size to be noticeable from quite a distance, containing most, if not all, the information a customer needs to make a purchase decision.

Today’s banners are sturdy and durable, serving their purpose time after time because they’re printed on high quality materials, such as vinyl or for a softer look, polyester fabric. Grey backing is used to prevent light shining through from behind rendering the banner illegible. This material also creates a smooth surface on which to reproduce high resolution images and graphics. Nowadays, the processes used in printing are far superior with a gradual change from lithographic to digital presses capable of reproducing colours to meet ISO standards; more vibrant, authentic and less likely to fade over time.

Most retractable banners now have pull out feet attached to a metal stand to improve stability and come with a detachable pole to make the frame rigid. You’ll be surprised how sturdy these things are, but if you’re planning to put one up outside in a force 8 …?
