Triangle Residents Have 20 Pharmacy Options. They Pick the One They See Every Day.

Across Raleigh, Durham, and Cary, national chains dominate pharmacy advertising with massive budgets. But the Triangle's growing population of young professionals and families values personal service and convenience over corporate branding. They just need to know you exist.

Elevator ads put your pharmacy name in front of residents 4-6 times daily, in the buildings where they live. That daily familiarity makes you the neighborhood option they think of first, turning new Triangle transplants into loyal customers before the chains can claim them.
