The History of Auto Advertising

Today vehicle wrapping is becoming more and more popular among small business. However, when the concept first came about, the process of wrapping vehicles in vinyl wasn't very affordable. Auto advertising started way before the idea of vinyl vehicle graphics came about. Your favorite vehicle wrap shop in Missouri brings you the history of auto advertising:

Early Vehicle Branding 


People have been putting their mark on their vehicles since the automobile was invented. However, it didn't start with vinyl. Early race cars added numbers and marketing to their vehicles for distinction, but the concept soon took on a business perspective. In February of 1900, Milton Hershey became the first to use auto advertising when he painted his Lancaster, PA Hershey brand on a vehicle. Originally, the only option for adding advertising to your vehicle was to paint it, and paint ruled vehicle graphics for over 50 years. By the late 1950's, a more durable, flexible option, with more design capabilities would change the world of auto advertising.


A Better Option Than Paint


This new option for vehicle graphics was vinyl chloride. You can find this multipurpose material in a long list of products because its versatile nature allows for many uses. It can be firm or flexible, thick or thin and also can come in a wide variety of colors. Where did this unique product come from though? Check out our blog titled, "The Invention of Vinyl" to find out!

The Spread of Vinyl Vehicle Graphics 


In the beginning, only large clients could afford to use these vinyl vehicle graphics. However, by the 21st century, technology advancements made it possible for small businesses to take advantage of this new way of advertising. For the last decade, vinyl vehicle wraps have quickly been taking over for both die-cut lettering and custom paint jobs. The vehicle wrap industry continues to improve and ProDezigns is on top of it!

Big Brands Get Vehicle Wrap Marketing

Marketing and advertising come in many different forms, each with their own ways of targeting consumers.  When it comes to choosing which marketing avenues to utilize, the big brands get it.  Big companies understand the power of vehicle wrap advertising.  Here are a few vehicle wraps we found that showcase some of these companies!

1. Monster Energy 


Monster is all about fans rockin' the Monster logo the way they want - on hats, shirts, bikes, trucks and more!  Monster is way more than an energy drink.  Led by the athletes, musicians, employees, distributors and fans, Monster is...a lifestyle in a can!

2. Coca-Cola 


The Coca-Cola Company is the world's largest beverage company, refreshing consumers with more than 500 sparkling and still brands.  Their brand strives to inspire creativity, passion, optimism and fun. Coca-Cola has used many marketing campaigns over the years, many of them including seasonal vehicle wraps like the one shown below:

3. Budweiser 


Based in St. Louis, Anheuser-Busch is the leading American brewer, holding a 47.6 percent share of U.S. beer sales to retailers.  The company brews the world’s largest-selling beers, Budweiser and Bud Light, and distributes these and many other popular brands through a strong network of more than 600 independent wholesalers.

4. Kentucky Fried Chicken


KFC Corporation, based in Louisville, Kentucky, is one of the few brands in America that can boast a rich, decades-long history of success and innovation. It all started with one cook who created a soon-to-be world famous recipe more than 70 years ago, a list of secret herbs and spices scratched out on the back of the door to his kitchen. That cook was Colonel Harland Sanders of course, and now KFC is the world's most popular chicken restaurant chain!

5. Red Bull 


From day one, Red Bull has been giving wings to people and ideas, setting many milestones in sports and culture.  Red Bull's effects are recognized throughout the world by a variety of people such as top athletes, busy professionals, college students and travelers on long journeys.

Vehicle Wraps vs Billboards

When you look at your marketing budget each year, it can be difficult to determine which form of advertising is going to be best for your business. There are many Benefits of Advertising with a Vehicle Wrap - but today I want to focus on why we say a vehicle wrap is better than a billboard.   
  1. A Vehicle Wrap is Mobile - your message is not restricted to one location. Although you may drive one route repeatedly, you have the ability to grab a new audience every time you turn down a new road.
  2. A vehicle wrap allows you to market strategically by taking your message (vehicle) INTO your target market.  Hunting stores, Shopping centers, the big game or Parades, this is a big one as you have hundreds of possible clients looking at your BRAND and they get an up close look, like window shopping! 
  3. You own it and you control it!!  Many forms of advertising, like billboards or radio are rented for a specific amount of time. Not vehicle wraps, you own the graphic and the vehicle. 
  4. You can afford to advertise ANYWHERE!  You can now advertise in areas where it would be impossible by any other means! Is the advertising space in the heart of your town beyond your budget? If so, chances are you can afford to drive your vehicle through the heart of your town, right?  With a custom vehicle wrap, you can advertise EVERYWHERE!!
If you have thought about wrapping your company vehicle, be sure to read our blog about the Benefits of Advertising with a Custom Wrap!!

And Remember...

If you can drive it, ride it, pull it, fly it, or lift it, we can wrap it!
