Growth Trend For OOH To Continue Through 2018

An OAAA Sales Tip

The growth trend of OOH, which now stretches across 30 consecutive quarters, is projected by MAGNA to continue at least through 2018. Their December 2017 report projects a healthy 2017 finish of +1.6 percent for OOH, followed by an even stronger 2018 at + 2.5 percent. MAGNA cites digital OOH as the largest growth driver for the channel, and highlights the importance of the expansion of the digital platform in the street furniture, transit and place-based categories.

The chart below showcases the continuing strength of OOH in a media industry marred by the disruption of digital online media.

In fact, OOH should surpass ad spend in magazines at the end of 2017, and is pacing to surpass newspapers in 2019.

Television is always the big winner in political and Olympics years, but OOH is well-poised to continue its solid growth in the Government, Politics and Organizations category. Many political races and issues will be locally focused in the coming year, and these are the biggest drivers for overall OOH political spending.
