Billboard design and negotiation.
Up by 5.

We design your ad, find the board in your market, and negotiate the rate — $200. On an open digital board, you can be up the same day.

You pay the operator for the board. You pay us $200. If we cannot find a workable board, the fee is refunded.

Questions, answered

What do I pay you, and what do I pay the board company?

For a single board, you pay Fast Billboards $200 for the design, the search, and the negotiation. You pay the operator directly for the board. We do not take a cut of the media buy. The monthly retainer works the same way: $5,000 to us, media to the operators.

Can I really be up the same day?

On a digital board that is open, yes — often by 5pm, if we have your brief and art in the morning. Static boards get same-day design; posting depends on printing and installation.

What markets do you cover?

The $200 offer is for one market. Write us at hello@fastbillboards.com and we’ll tell you if we can work your town. The retainer can cover boards across markets.

What if you cannot find a board?

On the $200 offer, if we cannot find a workable board for your market and dates, we refund the fee.

Do I have to use your design?

The design is included and made to run on the boards we recommend. If you already have art, we can work with that and still handle the search and negotiation.

Who is the contract with?

Your media contract is with the operator. Our agreement is only for the design and negotiation fee, or for the monthly retainer.

How many design revisions do I get?

Two rounds on the $200 offer. More than that is a new $200 engagement. On the retainer, design and revisions are ongoing.

What is the $5,000 a month for?

A full-time billboard designer and media placement buyer: ongoing creative, finding boards, negotiating rates, and scheduling and placing ads, including across markets. It is month to month. Write us if you want to see whether it fits.
