Creative Elevator Advertising Ideas

Elevator has become an essential part of most buildings especially in shopping malls and office buildings. As it serves as the main platform for people to commute up and down the floors in a building, advertisers are now using it as an indoor out-of-home (OOH) advertising medium.

Elevator advertising is not plain at all. It is one of the OOH mediums that allows advertisers to play with creativity and create an ad that amazes people. If you are considering to adopt elevator advertising, here are some creative elevator advertising ideas for your reference.
