Trax Tires Uses an Inflatable Billboard & RC Vehicle to Make an Impression

Tires & Tailgating Are a Winning Combination for this Inflatable Billboard

If you want to attract lots of attention while tailgating, follow Trax Tires' example. Using their inflatable billboard, Trax sets up a tailgating tent at all University of Southern Alabama home football games. But it's no ordinary tent. It's an entire community.

In addition to creating an atmosphere of excitement and team spirit, the Trax Tires community (called JagTrax) offers a way to reward those who have given back to the city of Mobile. Each week, the winning organization wins game tickets and more plus a chance to hang out at the JagTrax with company reps and others.

Fellow Jaguars fans can stop by for food and t-shirts, and to try their hand at racing the RC monster truck around its course. The entire time the Trax inflatable billboard is front and center to help reinforce branding.

Kimberly McKeand, Marketing Director of Trax Tires, told us, "So far we have received a lot of positive feedback from people in our community saying that they love [our inflatable billboard]. We hope people will see our inflatable tire and remember our name when it comes time for them to purchase tires or have their vehicles serviced." After all, that's the name of the game… make a lasting impression that brings customers to your door.

What Others Say About Landmark Creations

"Just wanted to say how much we LOVE our inflatables. We tested them in our lobby where they were, of course, an instant hit for school group photos. Our leadership was quite pleased with the durability and the realism."

- Mike Hennessy, Carnegie Science Center

"[The logo] helped us create a better presence, improved foot traffic, became a photo backdrop and helped us have the best-looking booth at the events,"

- Laura Repreza, KTLM Telemundo 40

“[The inflatable arch] created a wonderful backdrop to brand our events, capture our sponsors in the photos used by the participants, and made it easy to travel down the coast of California without taking up too much space on our trucks.”

- Amy Daugherty, California Coast Classic

"We usually have to keep the arch up for at least 30 minutes after our races since so many people want to get their photos taken with it!"

- Art Boulet, Muddy Monk

"This year’s event was the highest attended in some time, and the [inflatable] astronaut, front and center on our Portico, was a great visible draw from all over the area."

- Dennis Bateman, Carnegie Science Center

“This has created tremendous buzz around town and we have received a great deal of compliments on the Big Tire. Exposure is my goal, and the inflatable does that better than anyone, including me, can do at these events. The Big Tire never takes a break, gets tired or has to take a call. It just keeps shining bright and the kids love it.”
