Innovative Billboards is a Michigan-based business and has brought together a team of creative and highly experienced engineers to create an innovative, cost-effective, and easy to use billboard system, Billboard in a Box ™ which is patent pending. This technology has weatherproof housing with a non-glare panel that mechanically scrolls up to 12 printed signs that can be easily added or removed as needed.
Billboard in a Box™ mechanically changes messages to compete with LED Billboards however it costs 3 times less than LED billboards and uses ? of the electricity. This new solution produces over 4 times more revenue than a static billboard and has a less than 2 year return on investment compared to a 5+ year return on investment from LED Billboards.
