6 Sheet Posters

The 6-sheet is In Situ's core campaign format. It is totally dominant in scale, impacting the audience as they enter the leisure centre foyer and key points throughout their visit - poolside, cafeteria/recreational area, information points and changing area lobby.

Share of voice: with a competitive average of just 4 panels per centre, In Situ clients will always enjoy a high share of voice.

Panel positions are permanent and can be selected on a national, regional or line-by-line basis. The sheetage levels shown are guidelines for heavy, medium and light campaigns in 700 Centres.

"The 6 sheets were a great platform for the LEGO company to reach kids in a fun and active environment that accurately reflects the LEGO Sports brand personality. The LEGO Sports branded basketballs strengthen the communication message, whilst bringing the real action and energy of the products to life and allow kids to live the brand on the basketball courts with their friends."

“The brief was to target parents when they were with their children. The creative agency designed a poster specifically for Leisure Centre pools. Independent research showed that the mix of environment and creative worked very well creating synergy that delivered greater awareness than other environments”.

Reebok poster

While at Initiative Media, Reebok used In Situ 6 sheet campaigns several times a year over many years, producing very high awareness on each occasion (60%+).

The case for Leisure Centre advertising is dramatically increased by TGI evidence (Spring 2004): of the people who go more than once a week to Leisure Centres 17% buy Reebok accounting for 18% of all Reebok buyers and resulting in a TGI of 148. Interestingly we can also see that by adding Leisure Centres goers to Outdoor Quintile 5 (the lightest viewers) brings about an increase of 87% in penetration of Reebok buyers who also fall in the category of being poorly exposed to outdoor advertising.

Now that most sports trainer brands are focussing on the ‘fashion’ market, marketing communications managers should note that the Leisure Centre goer is also 35% more likely than normal to buy fashionable clothing.

Therefore TGI proves that Leisure Centres will dramatically raise the performance of any Outdoor campaign against both Reebok buyers and the fashion conscious.

Telewest poster

In Situ campaigns were first planned for Telewest in 2002 due to a) the perfect fit of our audience profile and b) the flexibility to select by specific postcodes as this all Telewest outdoor must conform precisely to their regions. Telewest have used In Situ’s Sports Pack sheetage at a heavy weight for most campaigns ever since.

"In Situ presented MCS with a terrific highly flexible opportunity in autumn 2004 where a multi- brand client could gain extended exposure for its range over a three month period. Our client WSM took up the offer and we were able to deliver highly targeted low cost additional exposure for 10 different album releases in the run up to Christmas."
