The balloon does one job: it makes people notice a place they have driven past a hundred times without seeing.
How it works
Order, artwork, proof, build, ship. Most promotions run two to three weeks from the first call to the balloon being in the air.
Powersports and motorcycle dealers
Riding season is short and the buying decision is made in it. Seasonal advertising that packs away suits the trade better than a permanent installation.
Grand openings
A new business gets one week of genuine curiosity from the neighbourhood. A balloon spends that week telling everyone within sight that something has changed here. It is the cheapest element of an opening budget and usually the most photographed.
Construction and trades
Contractors advertise to the neighbourhood around a job site, which is a small and very specific audience. A balloon on site reaches exactly them and nobody else.
Car dealerships
A dealership already has flags, banners and a lit sign, and customers have stopped seeing all three. A balloon above the lot changes the silhouette of the place, which is the one thing a regular commuter will actually notice. Most dealers run one over a weekend sale, then again at the end of the quarter.
Car washes
A car wash sells to traffic already in motion, with about three seconds to register. Height buys those seconds back.
Questions we get
Can we reuse it next year?
That is the normal pattern. Stored dry and out of the sun, a balloon comes out for the same sale for several years running.
How long does a balloon last?
The polyurethane we weld is rated in years of outdoor use, not weeks. What wears first is usually the printing on a balloon flown in strong sun every day.
Do I need a permit?
It depends entirely on the city and how high you fly. Most sites under fifty feet on private property are straightforward, but ring your local planning office first.
What we build
- Advertising blimps — Helium blimps from 10 to 30 feet, flown on a tether above the building. Visible from roads that cannot see your sign.
- Cold-air inflatables — Ground-standing shapes, characters and product replicas, run on a quiet blower. No helium.
- Round balloons — The classic sales-event balloon, 4.5 to 14 feet across. The cheapest way into outdoor advertising.
