Advertising Flags: Benefits and Uses

Posted by Heiwhite on August 9th, 2023

The advertising flag is used as a high-visibility promotional tool outside businesses to advertise business messages, events, and offers.

Advertising flags offer a great way to enhance brand awareness in areas that receive high footfall; these custom-made flags offer fantastic temporary advertising, especially for events like farmers markets and stands at events and outdoor locations. Using them outside your store can even attract people to your store - the possibilities are endless.

Why use Advertising Flags?

Advertising flags are the perfect way to get footfall for your business. These flags can feature your unique brand logo, messaging and imagery, so within a mass of people they can be seen from far and wide.

The flags are printed on polyester material and finished with a hand sewn hem; they also include a flag, pole, optional base, and carry bag, so they can be erected and dismantled easily.

Check out the many awesome features of Advertising Flags below and see how they can be beneficial to your business.

Advertising flags have several benefits

Advertising flags are completely customisable. With so many brands on the market, it's important to ensure your messaging, imagery, and slogan are unique to your company.

A variety of sizes and shapes are available at Crowd Control for advertising flags; teardrop, feather, and rectangular sail flags. Apart from our Rectangular Sail Flags, which are available only in a size large, all of our advertising flags are available in four sizes - small, medium, large, and extra-large.

For events with lots of passersby, we recommend using small flags like our Teardrop or Feather Flags - they are durable, and they can be placed metres away from your store or stand without causing too much disruption.

For roadside advertising, larger flags are ideal, such as our Rectangle Sail Flags. With larger sizes, you can create attention from a distance, so if someone is driving by on a busy street or road, they can see your ad flag and brand advertisement and decide to stop and see what your company offers.

We offer a range of customisable flag styles, sizes, and printing options, so you can promote your business in the most effective way possible.

Putting them together is easy

There are so many different types of outdoor advertising that can be difficult to build, like large signs, banners, and billboards, since they require extra hands, tools, and even the help of third parties.

With an advertising flag from Crowd Control, it's easy to erect and dismantle. You get everything you need to easily erect and dismantle your flag. In just a few seconds, you can hoist your sign without having to deal with the stress of other advertising methods with the flag, pole, optional base and carry bag.

You will also have more time to get more business by saving time with the creation of your advertising. In contrast to spending 30 minutes nailing up your advertising banners and signs, you can spend precious time ensuring everything is set up for the day and maximise your sales with an easy-to-construct advertising flag.

It's a cheap way to advertise

It can be very costly to advertise your business - especially on television, social media, and paid advertising - the expenses quickly add up. It's therefore imperative to reduce costs as much as possible - and what better way to do that than with cheap, efficient advertising?

Our cost-effective advertising flags are the perfect investment for businesses. Without the hassle of ongoing advertisements, advertising space, or ad creation, advertising flags are the ideal one-time investment.

You can also advertise sales and promotions with our customisable flags, without having to pay too much for advertising. Just pop up your advertising flag, and watch the customers come rolling in.

You can choose an optimal location

There are many businesses that face the problem of not having enough horizontal space to advertise outdoors effectively - especially if they run a market stall or outdoor event. Advertising flags, however, use vertical space to effectively advertise your business in a small area.

You can place your advertising flag at the ideal place in a busy, crowded space without disrupting anyone or getting in the way of other businesses. You can also use Feather Flags in this scenario, as businesses can be difficult to find in crowds - however, with an Advertising Feather Flag, you can easily be located by customers, and you can draw attention to your business.

Easy portability

With Advertising Flags, you can advertise roadside in the most convenient location for you and your business. The portability of the flags allows you to simply assemble them and place them wherever is convenient for you.

As well as being lightweight and easily portable, our flags are also weather-resistant and windproof, so you don't have to worry about a little rain ruining your day. Depending on where you are during the day, whether you're at the market, at your workplace or on the roadside, they can easily be moved from one place to another.

It's inevitable that you will need to move your custom advertising flags to a more advantageous location due to traffic patterns and other factors, but thanks to their durability and portability, you'll have no trouble getting them there.

Lots of people will view your advertising

If you place your advertising flag in an optimum location, so many people driving and walking past will see your brand, and will remember it for a long time to come.

When you have clever branding and a catchy slogan, people are subconsciously going to remember you even if they don’t pay attention to your advertising. As a result, when they need your products or services, you will be in their minds when they think of your advertising flag.
