Universities
The best way to connect with 18-25-year-olds is in places they spend their time, such as student union buildings, bars, sports centres, venues and libraries. It’s here that they’re in their comfort zone and highly responsive to the marketing aimed at them.
With a wide range of media types available, all situated in high-traffic areas - such as foyers, main bar areas, common rooms and seating areas - your brand can interact with students who are making purchasing decisions, often for the first time in their lives.
With poster sites and digital screens in a huge network of locations – all aimed at the student population - you can target your advertising to the university, the city, the venue or a real-time moment, for maximum impact.
The opportunity to get a targeted message to your student audience is unrivalled. Advertise drinks promotions, forthcoming gigs, freshers events, sports results and more to a captive audience. They’re not only receptive to your message but potentially a new customer base for you to tap into.
Advertising on college, university and further education campuses focuses your advertising on a specific group of people. But these students also venture into local towns and cities so you can advertise in pubs and clubs on student nights to get your brand out there, taking your campaign off campus without losing sight of your target audience.
