Why Bars & Restaurants Need Elevator Advertising

Restaurants and bars depend on a steady stream of local customers to survive. But traditional advertising channels are either too broad or too expensive for most venues. Social media algorithms limit your organic reach, food delivery apps take a massive cut of every order, and print ads end up in the recycling bin.

Elevator advertising solves the proximity problem. Your ad appears on screens inside the residential buildings closest to your venue — reaching the exact people who are most likely to walk through your door. These aren't anonymous impressions; they're your neighbors seeing your daily specials, happy hour deals, and weekend brunch menus multiple times a day.

Vertical Impression makes it easy for restaurants and bars to target buildings within walking distance or a short drive. Whether you're launching a new location, promoting a seasonal menu, or just need to fill seats on a slow Tuesday, elevator advertising delivers consistent foot traffic from the community around you.

How close to my restaurant can I advertise in elevators?

Vertical Impression lets you select specific buildings by address or neighborhood. Most restaurants target buildings within a 1-5 km radius of their location, focusing on the residential towers that feed the most foot traffic to their area.

Can I change my elevator ad creative for different promotions?

Yes. You can update your creative to reflect weekly specials, seasonal menus, or upcoming events. This flexibility lets you keep your messaging fresh and relevant, which drives more repeat visits from building residents.
