The VIP Pedicab OOH Solution

A creative, movement-based advertising platform — branded pedicabs that act as mobile billboards, providing high-impact, street-level exposure across San Diego.

Why It Works:

  • Mobile, Eye-Level Visibility

  • Hyper-Local Targeting

  • Built-In Engagement

  • Event Integration

  • High Impressions, Low Clutter

Target Audience:

  • Sports Fans

  • Nightlife crowds

  • Convention attendees

  • Locals in high-footfall districts

  • Tourists

  • Hotel guests and business travelers

  • Restaurant & Retail Shoppers

  • Festival & Concert Attendees

  • Theater & Performing Arts Patrons

How It Works:

Planning:

We start by determining how many pedicabs you want, the duration of the campaign, and the neighborhoods or events you'd like to target. This helps us maximize visibility and impact.

Design & Production:

We send over our artwork templates, and your team submits the final creative. Once you approve digital proofs, we move forward with printing and wrap installation. When your fleet is ready, we send photos of each branded pedicab. (Production time: approx. 1 - 2 weeks)

Campaign Activation:

Your pedicabs hit high-traffic areas, always where the crowds are!

Photo Recap:

Once the campaign is live, we’ll send a batch of photos of your branded pedicabs in action, perfect for sharing with your clients, social media, or internal reports.
