A campaign we planned, booked and photographed for another advertiser in Services, run by the same team and the same process you would work with.
A cut-out that climbs out of the hoarding
Every sale hoarding in December carries the same dates and the same discount claim, so this one broke the frame instead of competing inside it. A life-size cut-out was built holding onto the bottom edge of the board, hanging below the structure so the figure reads against the sky from a long way off. The panel itself stayed simple, the sale name, the dates and the participating brands, because the construction was doing the stopping.
A three-dimensional element makes a standard site unmissable on a road where every board is selling the same fortnight. Keeping the copy minimal was deliberate: once the cut-out has stopped the eye, the only thing that has to land is the date.
Every placement shown was booked directly with the media owner and photographed on the ground by our team.

Travel and tourism advertising in India
Print is the sector’s leading medium, taking 90.6% of ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025. Veena Patil Hospitality leads on 12.6% of that spend, 78.1% of the sector’s ads run on digital, and 1,197 advertisers were still active in January 2026.
Where the volume moved, quarter by quarter
Ad volume indexed against the opening quarter = 100, inside one collection batch. The 2026 exports are not on the same footing, so the trend stays within the 12 months to September 2025 rather than crossing that boundary.
Up 17% on the opening quarter.
Up 156% on the opening quarter.
Down 63% on the opening quarter.
Ads recorded per quarter across the 12 months to September 2025, indexed to Oct-Dec 24. Media with too few ads to compare are left out.
The preferred medium
Print captured the highest share of the sector’s ad spend over the 12 months to September 2025, at 90.6% of estimated television, print and radio spend. Digital sits outside this split because TAM prices it on a different scale; it is reported by ad count instead.
A plan that skips print buys a smaller share of this category’s voice than the headline spend suggests.
