If you had not noticed his comment last week, Grey Vick of Grey Outdoor showed  his marketing prowess after reading our two articles on PETA’s purchase of Lamar stock for the purpose of attempting to overturn Lamar’s corporate policy of blocking all PETA ads.  Here is Grey’s comment:

Why even worry with someone who doesn’t want their business, when they could get the coverage with the independent operators around the country. I have rented some signs to PETA in the past and reached out to them about this after the article came out. I figured maybe they were looking now but it definitely was to get attention in the media. We are grateful to help any customers that can benefit from our assets. Here is what PETA said:

Hi Grey,

Thanks so much for reaching out and for the gracious offer. We are holding off on most billboards right now, just because of everyone staying home and not seeing them. But when things pick back up, we will certainly reach out with anything!

If the big company won’t run them I think most independents will, so let’s just keep trying. We just try to keep them in the right locations so our other advertisers won’t get upset. We have a lot of customers that are in the animal agriculture business and we will support both sides of the agenda. This is the way all media should be, with personal beliefs aside.

Well done Grey.
