CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1            BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Advertising has grown increasingly popular as an object of academic inquiry, a field of professional practice and an index of modern business it has come to assume the centre of modern marketing and it is one of the major forms of promotion in product and service marketing. Billboard advertising has assumed a wider and prominent position in product promotion in recent times in Nigeria. Despite electronic media, billboard advertising got product promotion on the increase.

This new discovery in product promotion has not only given liwse to advertising agencies, that specialized only in billboard advertising, and also a strong association of billboard advertising in Nigeria which is recognized by advertisers as a subsidiary of the advertising practitioner. Council of Nigeria APCON. But as bas been articulated by Adeyein (1969), the constitutional provision on freedom of expression can be said to amount only to an ordered freedom of which can not be used as a license to spread communication that debased public morality. However, many of these ethical principles have in the course of time grown to become statutory regulation condified laws. Decree 55 of 1988 among other provision provides that APCON show regular and control the practice of advertising in all its aspects and ramifications. It is in excise of this immense and wide power conferred on it, that APCON developed a code of ethic to guide and regulates the practice of advertising in Nigeria.

The evidence increase in billboard advertising under sources the effectiveness of billboard in project promotion. Billboard ensure frequent and repeated exposure to the advertisement billboard are usually rotated at points with higher vehicular and human traffic.

Consequently, users of such points are regularly exposed to the advertisement in the board. Secondly, billboard, also offer a high degree of vocational flexibility. In other words, the boards can be placed where the advertisers actually intended then to be. In addition, they tend it have lower cost per thousand than most of the other media. They are usually more cost efficient, especially for the advertisers with a small budget. Billboard offers the advantages of very good colour reproduction and at the sometime it is an effective reminder medium offer servicing as a catalyst for buyers who buy in impulse. The greatest problems encountered by advertisers and their agencies with regard to billboard is site monitoring is usually defiant and so when posters get torn or washed out, of takes a while to discover and repost. This is because the site are usually scattered around very far geographic locations.

The posters used on the boards are usually tedious to print and post especially when the number of sites to be covered are too many. In other words, boards make intense creative demands on the agency. Because they are usually seen in a fleeting second, they have to be powerfully executed so as to intrude on the passers – by’s consciousness. In this case they tend to function better as reminder media and there cannot serve well as the print ary and sole medium for an advertising campaign. Aside its cost efficient contributes to environmental aesthetic and enduing feature of lands cape of towns, in the country. Although the voice of the street vendor in Nigeria grows fainter with each passing year, it is still possible to her the mournful call and thinking bell for the old clothes and junk man, the call of the intinerant fruit peddler with his pushcart, or the street come vendors of hot chestnuts. And what will a football game be without the kids hwking peanut and soft drinks? Much the same calls in a different language, echoed in the streets.

Again if you will glance town the length of the street in Enugu metropolis, you will notice that the storekeeper around the town have taken some pains to make sure they are not unobserved just as the market keeper did in Ogbete main market so you can see that broadcast advertising (billboard) have all been around for a long time. But is wasn’t until the middle ages, with the world shaking advert of the printing press and moveable type, that advertising began to take the firm  most familiar to as today.

Winstan fletche (1979), identifies the following determinant of the strength of a billboard advertising, such as, the number of posters put in any given area the size of the poster, the specific sitting of the poster and the length of the campaign. Because of the problem of the more boards in a given area, he greater the problem of dotter, many authorities regulate the sitting of boards as to prevent their indiscriminate location poster come in standard sizes referred to as sheets, the dimensions of a single sheet are usually expressed in inches for easy handling and processing. A single limit of sheet is usually 20 inches wide by 30 inches deep. The most commonly available poster format are 16 – sheets, 32 sheets and 48 sheets.

In addition, there is the painted board or bulletin boards, which are hand painted (in stead of printed posters) and typical sizes are 14 feet by 48 feet posters sited at busy locations or junctions with high human and vehicular traffics are often more effective than those at less endorsed locations. Furthermore, the longer the duration of a campaign the more impact it tend to have.

Outdoor advertising has become a major advertising firms in Enugu metropolis and an indispensable source of revenue for Enugu state government while advertisers buys space in newspaper and magazines, for outdoor he went sites. In Enugu metropolis, renting a site centres on an advertiser the right of having his poster displayed on the site. To do this, advertise or his agency will retain an outdoor advertising company. The advertising companies will have to usually built and acquire a particular site it wants or chooses from the one’s the billboard company supplies. It pays the outdoor agency for the production of the poster as well as rental fee for the sites. Its media and client service monitor the posting, to ensure that all the sites are constantly and clearly posted throughout the duration of the campaign.

For all the media enumerated, management of the advertising operation is very delicate task, since in most cases, advertising represents a significance source of corporate profitability. For billboard companies particularly, the key task will entail keeping a Table of content on advertising agencies and salutation so that they can use the billboard firm for their campaign. Other task include monitoring of sites to ensure that poster are in good order and property posted, invoicing agencies for sites created and posted, ensuring prompt payments, and prompt payment of rental charges to the state government via local authority in executive this research, the research will try to identify why billboard advertising seems to be more popular than other means of advertising in terms of product promotion in Enugu metropolis.
