When Creating Billboard Ads:
- Keep it simple: 1 image, 1 logo, 7 words - Messages with one idea work best.
- Use a clear & clean font - thin or lightweight fonts and small text will not be readable. Bold is ok.
- Every inch counts - don't worry about leaving white space.
- Be on Brand - make it easy for someone to search for the business after seeing the ad.
- Promote the website, location, or phone number (but not all 3)
