Van Branding: Use Your Vehicle to Effortlessly Promote Your Business

Vinyl wrap is a thin self-adhesive film that can be installed on the bodywork of any company vehicle to help promote a business or service. If you’re a business owner and you haven’t yet added vinyl graphics to your business van then you’re missing an amazing promotional opportunity.

Studies show that vehicle branding is one of the most cost-effective forms of outdoor advertising available to small and large businesses. Whether parked up, standing at lights, or being driven to and from a workplace, a vehicle wrap can receive between 30,000 and 70,000 impressions a day. High-quality vinyl vehicle graphics last for up to 7 years so, for a one-off upfront investment, you can expose your brand to thousands of individuals, daily, for a long time to come.

Copy to add to vehicle wraps

A well-branded vehicle has minimal copy as well as clear and concise messaging. It’s important not to make your vehicle wrap too cluttered or fussy otherwise passers-by won’t pick up on the key messaging. The following are recommendations for key contact info to include in your graphics:

• Company name
• Logos
• Web address
• Social media handles

Full vehicle wrap versus partial

With vehicle branding, you’ll need to decide how much of the vehicle to wrap in vinyl. Many businesses choose to fully wrap their trucks or vans for maximum impact. Others choose the option of installing a partial wrap that just covers prominent parts of the vehicle, such as the doors, windshield, and hood.  Creative, well-positioned partial wraps can be just as effective as full wraps, particularly for those on a tight budget.

Partial car wraps are popular with customers that have a vehicle for both personal use and business use as the graphics can be more subtle and less intrusive.
