🎤 #PlayOnPod Drop!🎧

Rugby pods have been a bit thin on the ground this week, but fear not, we've got you covered.

Everyone is back on deck in time for awards season, a massive tranche of appointments far and wide and some adroit insights into trends and developments.

What's not to like?

Truth in advertising.

Truck Ads Australia @truckads.bsky.social · 11d

There's some good news and there's some bad news.

▶️ The good news: it's only two months until Christmas.
▶️ The bad news: it's only two months until Christmas!!!
▶️ The good news: there's still time to get your message on road for the summer season.

Truck Ads Australia @truckads.bsky.social · 18d

76.5%

That's #DOOH's latest share of total #OOH net revenue.

Which means classic OOH is becoming scarcer.

So where to turn when you want long term, unchangeable on road branding?

Ah-ha! You learn something new every day - I didn't know Cairns had other colours, which is why I was confused.

She looks delightful fun.

Summer cut Stig sends licks and sniffs.

A warm welcome to Morag! She looks like loads of fun - perhaps she will chase rabbits instead of chooks!

I couldn't quite ID the breed, though - do tell.

A very good point and an even better question.

Truck Ads Australia @truckads.bsky.social · 25d

As travellers return home from school holidays, often journeying through regional Australia, consider this fact. 👀

Is your media reaching regional areas?

For some reason, I haven't been seeing your posts in my timeline until a couple of days ago and then voila! Ducklings and now puppies! ❤️

Please tell me the puppy story!
