Billboards Planning Permission

If you wish to build or erect a new billboard in the UK, you must adhere to the guidelines outlined in the official Planning Permission PDF document. This document provides current information about outdoor advertisement signs, including the rules and regulations governing them. However, these may differ in specific locales, so we advise always checking with your local authorities.

The PDF aims to explain how outdoor advertisement procedures work, specifically in England. It consists of rules made by the Secretary of State, who is part of the planning control system. The Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations 2007 have been in force since 6 April 2007.

Throughout England, local planning authorities in Fife are responsible for the day-to-day operation of advertisement control and thus deciding whether a particular outdoor advertisement should be permitted or not. The local planning authority will normally be the district council, the County Council or the London Borough Council (if you live in the Greater London area).

You should always consult the relevant authorities before attempting to display a billboard or outdoor advertisement.

How Do I Sell My Gable End For Advertising?

If you have a gable end terrace or house on a busy road or in an area with high foot traffic and passing traffic, it is often ideal to sell or rent it and have it fitted with an advertising hoarding. You can then hire it out yourself, sell it to a billboard company, or rent it out annually to a marketing company.

Why We Invest in Billboards?

We invest in purchasing billboards in Fife because, since the revelation of digital billboards, this form of advertising has seen a resurgence in popularity. Read more here: Revenue in Billboards.

The location of a billboard is key because it needs footfall and traffic to be worth investing in; basically, the bigger the footfall, the more profitable a site will be.

Another success story is covered here - Making Money With Billboards:

"Billboards have become one of the strongest media options for advertisers, whereas just a decade ago, they were considered the weak sibling of television, radio, and newspapers. The advent of the internet destroyed those giants, but left billboards unscathed."

How to Sell Billboard Space Yourself and Advertising Billboards

For billboard owners, the best and simplest way to sell advertising space in Fife is to place an ad on the billboard itself. If your location is prime, this may be all you need to do: basically, place your phone number and contact details on the ad and let people know the space is up for sale.

You can also contact local businesses and let them know you have an idle billboard that would be perfect for their outdoor advertising needs.

Some advertisers would prefer to purchase a number of billboards countrywide to keep their message in the public eye. Do you have the capacity to do this? If not, are there other billboard advertising companies you can partner with to fulfil the client's wishes? Stay in touch with other professionals in the field and negotiate agreements if such a scenario arises.

Starting Your Own Outdoor Advertising Company
