Aerial marketing with an advertising hot air balloon is a cost effective and attention grabbing way to promote your business.
In a single, one-hour flight over a major city such as York, Manchester, Leeds or Bristol, anything up to 100,000 people will see your balloon in the sky. Few other marketing campaigns have the impact that aerial advertising balloons offer.
Take it along to a large outdoor event, such as Bristol Balloon Fiesta, large music festivals or televised events such as the Formula One Grand Prix or the Virgin Money London Marathon and millions more could see it.
Add in extra attention from media coverage of your balloon, plus the photographs that the public love to take of hot air balloons to share on social media.
Each post and share of those advertising balloon photographs on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and others is an advert for your business. Suddenly your aerial advertising balloon (and therefore your company brand) is all over the internet.
By the time you add the additional value of flying corporate guests, journalists and other members of the media and the potential to help raise money for charity with your hot air balloon, aerial marketing quickly becomes one of your main promotional tools.
Hot air balloons cause excitement wherever they go and offer the perfect PR opportunity – how many other marketing campaigns would feature in newspapers, on TV, on the radio or online news websites for free?
Inviting a journalist to fly in your advertising balloon is another perfect PR opportunity – they get a news story and your company gets free advertising as a result.
A hot air balloon ride is also a fantastic corporate hospitality opportunity – just imagine inviting your clients, staff, prize-winners and even customers to join you on an unforgettable flight through the skies at no additional cost.
If your business trades internationally, you can take your advertising balloon to any number of major events throughout the world, from the Tour de France to the many international balloon fiestas.
We buy more hot air balloons than anyone else in the UK and as a result, Hot Air Balloon Promotions has a long-standing relationship with Cameron Balloons – the world’s largest and most experienced manufacturer of hot air balloons – that goes back more than 20 years.
Cameron Balloons Ltd built the world’s very first Special Shape balloon all the way back in 1976 and has remained the world leader in the field.
Hot air balloons are not mass-produced but are crafted by hand, allowing you and us to be involved at each stage from the initial idea and designs to the very first flight.
With your imagination our only limit, we will work with Cameron Balloons Ltd to create the perfect promotional advertising balloon for you.
