When you think about advertising, most people picture billboards, radio spots, or online ads. The problem? Those things keep costing you money every single month. Once you stop paying, your exposure stops too.


That’s why more and more Utah businesses — from Provo to Salt Lake City and beyond — are turning to car wraps. At Pro Signs, we’ve seen firsthand how vehicle wraps transform a business’s visibility, and the best part is this: it’s one of the most affordable ways to advertise.

Your Car Becomes a Billboard

Imagine driving down I-15, headed from Provo into Salt Lake City. You pass thousands of cars along the way. Now imagine your vehicle is wrapped in bold, eye-catching graphics with your business name, logo, and website. Suddenly, every commuter, every person at the stoplight, and everyone walking through a parking lot is seeing your brand.


Unlike billboards that stay in one spot, a car wrap goes where you go. Whether you’re headed to a job site in Lehi, making deliveries in Salt Lake, or parked outside a local event in Ogden, your car is working for you — 24/7.


Advertising Type

Recurring Cost

Reach (Local)

Lifespan

Cost Per 1K Impressions

Car/Vehicle Wraps

One-time (plus maintenance)

High (local roads, traffic, city streets)

3-5 years (or more)

Very low – far cheaper compared to billboards, radio or digital ad campaigns.

Billboards

Monthly or longer lease fees

Good, but often only along certain highways or high-traffic corridors

Varies (often 1-3 years renewals)

Much higher CPM due to media costs.

Radio / TV / Print

Monthly or per-campaign recurring

Depends on coverage, but less targeted geographically

Short (campaign duration)

Higher cost per reach and often less visual impact.

A One-Time Investment That Lasts Years

Here’s why vehicle wraps are so affordable: you pay once, and they keep advertising for years. A full wrap typically lasts 7–10 years with the right care. Compare that to a billboard or online campaign that charges you every single month. With a wrap, the cost keeps stretching farther and farther the longer you drive.

In fact, studies show a wrapped car can get tens of thousands of impressions every day just by being on the road. That means your cost per view is far lower than almost any other type of advertising.

Perfect for Utah Businesses

Car wraps are especially powerful in Utah. Why?


  • Heavy traffic corridors – Thousands of cars travel I-15 daily between Salt Lake City, Provo, and Ogden. That’s instant exposure.

  • Local community events – Whether it’s a BYU football game in Provo or a summer festival in Salt Lake, parked wrapped vehicles turn into mobile billboards for crowds of people.

  • Everyday driving – From school drop-offs to job sites, your brand is getting seen in the neighborhoods where your customers live.


Trust and Professionalism

It’s not just about being seen — it’s about being remembered. A clean, professionally wrapped vehicle gives off credibility. When potential customers see your branded car pull up to a job site in Lehi or a client meeting in Salt Lake, it tells them you’re established, professional, and here to stay.
