Culture Pop Soda’s Winning Strategy with Truckside Advertising in NYC
When Culture Pop Soda set out to revolutionize the soda industry with its bold flavors and probiotic-infused beverages, it knew that standing out in the crowded beverage market would require an equally bold advertising strategy. Enter Adgile Media Group’s truckside advertising solution— a dynamic, on-the-move approach that brought Culture Pop Soda’s message directly to the streets of New York City.
This campaign marked Culture Pop Soda's third collaboration with Adgile Media Group, demonstrating the brand’s continued confidence in the effectiveness of mobile billboards and OOH advertising to capture the attention of on-the-go consumers. The results were nothing short of spectacular: over 10.9 million impressions, a cost-per-thousand impressions (CPM) of just $2.96, a remarkable return on ad spend (RoAS) of 4.30x, and 5,331 units sold.
Why Truckside Advertising?
Culture Pop Soda’s mission is to reinvent soda by blending unique flavors with the health benefits of probiotics, making it a standout in the beverage industry. However, innovation alone isn't enough to capture market share; it requires smart, high-impact marketing that cuts through the noise. By choosing truckside advertising, Culture Pop Soda ensured that its vibrant brand message was delivered to the right audience, at the right time, and in the right place— the bustling streets of New York City.
Truckside advertising proved to be an ideal fit for Culture Pop Soda, aligning perfectly with its brand ethos of creativity and visibility. Unlike traditional static billboards, mobile billboards offer the advantage of mobility, allowing for maximum reach and engagement across various neighborhoods. Whether parked at a busy intersection or moving through popular areas like Times Square, these ads turned heads and sparked curiosity.

Creative Execution: Capturing Attention on the Go
The creative execution of Culture Pop Soda’s campaign was carefully crafted to make an impact. Adgile Media Group’s trucks featured vibrant graphics that showcased the brand’s playful and unique identity. The trucks were wrapped with eye-catching images of Culture Pop Soda cans, combined with bold messaging like “Good for you, soda,” which reinforced the brand’s core value proposition of a healthier, more enjoyable soda experience.
The design was optimized to grab attention quickly and convey the brand’s benefits even at a glance. As the trucks navigated through various parts of the city, they became moving canvases that sparked curiosity, conversation, and, most importantly, action.
Leveraging Data for Strategic Insights
One of the unique advantages of working with Adgile Media Group is access to comprehensive data analytics. The team tracked the truck routes, locations, and the corresponding consumer engagement, offering a clear picture of how the ads were performing in real time. This data-driven approach allowed Culture Pop Soda to make adjustments on the fly, optimizing routes and maximizing the exposure of their mobile billboards to high-traffic areas.
By leveraging these insights, Culture Pop Soda could target specific demographics more effectively, aligning its advertising efforts with its overall brand strategy and marketing objectives.
