Kijiji logo for their truck advertising campaign

Summary

Kijiji Auto was looking for a way to stand out and tell Nova Scotia that vehicles are available after years of limited inventory. With the pandemic having dire consequences for the global automotive industry, supply has been scarce for anyone looking for wheels. Kijiji, being savvy, wanted to reach commuters when and where they were thinking about vehicles. Mobile Billboards became a natural part of the campaign, being in front of the target audience at all times, day, night, rain, and occasional shine. The campaign launched during hurricane season, and the trucks played a vital part in keeping communities well-stocked with necessities. Two dedicated weekend placements at the Halifax Shopping Center caught everyone's attention in addition to over 3 Million impressions served to vehicle owners. A perfect example of how strategic thinking can produce massive results.
