    Recently I posted a question on yahoo answers to better understand what peoples attitudes are towards toilet advertising. The overall response was overwhelmingly positive, with one person boldly stating that it is the only advertising that still has an impact on him.

    A study conducted at Rice university has shown that the retention of the marketing message is 40% more effective than retention for any other media.

    Barbour and Monroe’s survey data concluded that:

    • 84% recalled seeing specific advertisements in the restrooms.

    • 92% were able to name specific advertisers without prompting.

    Why the Yellow Pages is the Small Business's Best Friend
    I sold Yellow Page ads for 25 years. During that time, I dealt with mostly the local “mom and pop” type businesses. The reason was simple. The large companies chose the more expensive media to promote their national chains. So Home Depot would have t

    It proves that it is the advert that makes the campaign relevant, not the environment. Unilever’s Axe (known as Lynx in the UK) understood this brilliantly and used the toilet environment to its benefit. Look at some of their brilliant ideas here

    Toilet advertising is a channel that is open to innovation: planners can choose from a plethora of formats: A3 panels, stickers, lenticular, bluetooth, wi-fi, talking posters, etc. And the recently added option of direct response media pads has greatly added to the effectiveness of direct response campaigns.

    Here we have a media that is 100% lifestyle and gender targeted, offers a captive audience away from clutter producing advertising campaigns with zero wastage, yet toilet posters are still not recognized as mainstream media.
