Paratransit vehicles are essential to our public transportation systems. These specialized vehicles support individuals with mobility challenges, ensuring they can travel throughout their communities. Whether they’re going to a doctor’s appointment, school, the grocery store, or anywhere in between – paratransit vehicles are in the community where your target audience lives, works, and plays.
If you are looking for enhanced local visibility, the ability to reach a diverse audience, and an opportunity to build trust through community engagement – paratransit advertising may be the solution you’re looking for.
Paratransit Advertising Focuses on the Local Community
Many advertisers choose to focus on traditional transit options but are missing the community-focused benefits of paratransit vehicles. One advantage of advertising on paratransit vehicles is their ability to reach deeper into neighborhoods, making stops at local grocery stores, hospitals, and community centers. These vehicles are highly visible in residential areas and parking lots – places where standard buses don’t typically travel.
One advertiser, Chad Mitchell State Farm located in Kansas City, said this about advertising on KCATA paratransit vehicles: “I wanted the paratransit because it felt more local to me. If felt more community involved to me.” Plus, Mitchell appreciates the fact that transit advertising gives back to the local community he’s targeting, sharing, ““I think it’s a win-win anytime that you can invest in advertising to benefit your business. And while doing that you’re also benefiting the community; I don’t think you can lose on that.”
So, if you’re looking to place your brand in popular spots around your community, paratransit advertising may be the solution you’re looking for.
Reach a Diverse Audience with Paratransit Advertising
Paratransit vehicles do not have set routes, instead they travel to wherever the rider needs to go. Because of the uniqueness of their travel, the vehicles are seen by people all over your community, not just along bus lines. This is beneficial for advertisers looking to reach a diverse audience with their advertising, and especially an audience who may need paratransit services – such as health care providers, senior living facilities, and local government agencies.
But paratransit advertising doesn’t only reach those riding in the vehicle. Since these vehicles travel to a wide range of locations, from residential neighborhoods to hospitals and commercial areas – they pass through many areas, exposing the advertising to a variety of age groups, income levels, and demographics. This far reach ensures that your advertising makes an impact in your area.
Advertising on Paratransit Vehicles Builds Trust and Brand Recognition
Paratransit is a trusted service in many local communities. Advertising on the sides or back of these vehicles aligns your brand with the transit authority and the service – and therefore makes your organization stand out as a trusted local service as well. Additionally, when you advertise on paratransit you’re also contributing to the continuation of these services, showing part of your target audience that you support the services they need most.
With most paratransit vehicles frequenting highly populated areas and neighborhoods, advertising your brand will ensure that your name and message will be seen consistently. The continuous reminder of your organization and services is another reason why transit advertising builds brand recognition like no other media.
