1.  Eye-Catching

It’s kind of hard to miss a giant, colorful, inflatable creature on the side of the road.  Balloon advertising ensures that everyone driving past will notice your store.

2. Memorable

People are going to remember your business if you use an inflatable advertisement.  Keep it interesting by changing advertisements every few weeks.

3. Cost-Effective

Inflatable advertising is a lot cheaper than renting a billboard or sending out mailers.  They also can get to a larger audience with a fraction of the cost.

4. Low Maintenance

Skyline Balloon & Advertising Solutions will take care of all the set-up and take-down of the advertising balloons.  All you have to do is handle all the new business that the balloon gets you.

5. FUN!

These balloons are a conversation starter.  People are going to come into your place of business just because of your balloon ads.  They’re fun and funny and crazy!

Skyline Balloons & Advertising Solutions installed a 25′ tall inflatable animal for the Special Olympics in Lombard for NEDSRA in May.  “Mico”, the inflatable gorilla (after Magilla Gorilla), was a hit among the athletes, families, volunteers and patrons.  It was extremely visible and eye catching, drawing quite a bit of attention to this wonderful event.  Thanks to NEDSRA for a wonderful event.  Looking forward to 2011!

Special Olympics - 2010

Magilla Gorilla

Don’t have enough room for a giant gorilla at your storefront or event? The perfect outdoor advertising solution for an occasion short on space may be a sky dancer, also known as air dancer, air puppet or wind dancer. There are many reasons why companies choose this route, starting with the fact that they are always in continuous motion. This will ensure that whoever is close to your location will immediately be drawn to it by the dancing air puppet.

The setup and removal of these products is quick and easy, inflating in just seconds and kept in motion by the powerful air blower. Skydancers are easy to move, so setting up different locations in the same day is a simple step. One of our other favorite reasons for using air dancers for outdoor advertising is that they are effective indoors and outdoors, as well as day or night. Once Skyline Balloons & Advertising Solutions sets them up, you can rest assured that they will be constantly working hard for you.

Like many inflatable advertising products, sky dancers are customizable, so there are different shapes, characters and ways to incorporate a brand and logo. If you see yourself using this often, the option to purchase one is also available. The possibilities are endless when determining which form of outdoor advertising suites you best, so contact our advertising balloons company today to see how we can help bring more traffic to your location!

Here is a short video of one example of an air dancer in action:

Skyline Balloons & Advertising Solutions is working with a leading mattress retailer in the Chicagoland area to advertise special promotions and events.  Given the limited space of most retailers, Skyline Balloons has introduced trailer HABs (mobile hot air balloons shapes).  The units are licensed and take up ONE parking spot.  They can be plugged in or powered by a generator and have interior lights for day and night advertising.  “The trick is getting the traffic through our doors, and your balloon does that for us”, one store manager of the large retailer claims.  Easy to set up and extremely economical, these units are great for catching out-of-home traffic and increasing business. 

When advertising a business, the most important thing is to get your ad noticed.  Flyers and inserts are easily discarded and online promotions can be overlooked.  So how do you get people to pay attention to your ad, to your business?  A growing number of Chicago area business owners are turning to advertising balloons.  Balloon advertising is a great way to get your business noticed.  It’s hard for people to ignore a 25-foot inflatable gorilla or a giant floating ball with your company’s logo on it.  It’s a memorable image and will draw attention to your store.  Everyone passing by on the street will at least glance, if not stare, at both the balloon and your store.

It’s cost-effective as well.  For a price significantly less than a billboard, you can get inflatable advertising right outside your storefront.  And the set-up is simple.  Skyline Balloons & Advertising Solutions will bring the balloon to your store and set it up.  And when you’re done, Skyline Balloons will come back and take the balloon down.  The work is done for you and you get to sit back and reap the benefits.  Balloon advertising works.  It’s a sure crowd-pleaser and will bring in business as long as it remains dancing in the wind outside your store.
