Repositionable Event Graphics Provide Ambience and Increased Sponsorship for Events

Cranky Creative Group provides industry leading graphics that can be put on ANY surface! These repositionable graphics provide many benefits for event planners, such as increased visibility of key sponsors, increased sponsorship revenue and customizable venues.




In the event branding industry, removable and repositionable vinyl decals and graphics are the cutting edge to maximize event ambience and sponsorship visibility. These new graphics can brand any surface in a venue and be removed without damaging the surface. Not just any graphics though, graphics that are as large as you can imagine and affixed to almost any surface such as elevators, windows and even the outside of buildings.

Event graphics offer a range of variety for event planners. The graphics are usually short-term allowing infinite possibilities for application. Elevator wraps, carpet decals, window graphics, table graphics, laptop skins, door wraps, stage backdrops, trade show graphics, vinyl or fabric banners and wall murals increase awareness by grabbing the participants’ attention from beginning to end. An experience is created before an attendee even enters the event using wall murals, concrete column wraps, or staircase graphics outside of the event location. Eye-popping graphics allow for immediate exposure of sponsored brands. Windows can be used as well, a space that would normally only be used to hang an 8.5x11 inch sheet of paper can now be covered from end to end in graphics.

Cranky Creative Group headquartered in Durham, NC has mastered this type of event branding and is ready to take on their next project.

Take our event branding test below to see if your company could benefit from our graphics:

1. Would you like to Increase event sponsor revenue through selling space that was previously unable to be branded (i.e. elevators, windows, walls, etc.)?
2. Would you like to increase visibility for key sponsors of your events?
3. Would you like to transform event spaces into customized branded venues for your events?
4. Would you like to instill a sense of pride and excitement in your event participants to encourage them to come back again?
5. Would you like to maximize sponsor return on investment?
6. Include new branding spaces in your sponsorship packages?

If you said yes to any of these, call Cranky Creative Group now at 877-311-7446 or visit us at www.crankycreative.com to learn more about how our event graphics can help BRAND YOUR NEXT EVENT!

Instead, they wanted to use elevator wraps and after a quick search on the internet they knew just who to call… Cranky Creative Group.

As stated on their campaign webpage, www.luc.edu/reimagine , the ‘reimagine’ campaign was launched, “To ignite our campus spirit and to provide our students with a world-class collegiate experience, Loyola is investing $100 million into reimagine, a campaign to revolutionize student community at Loyola. This campaign is an ambitious, five-phased building project that will touch every facet of life at the Lake Shore Campus.”

What better way to ignite campus spirit and market the ‘reimagine’ campaign than elevator wraps? For this project Cranky Creative Group wrapped five elevators for Loyola. The graphics were created by Loyola and Cranky Creative Group was contacted to put their vision to life!

Elevator wraps can be used to not only market a product, but in this case an idea. The wraps are seen by everyone that walks past them, waits in front of them, or steps inside of them. For a sure fire way to advertise elevator wraps are the way to go. Elevator wraps are a cost-effective way to provide ‘can’t miss’ marketing for any type of business!

Lenovo Elevator Wraps

Raleigh, NC - Lenovo Corporation is one of Cranky's best clients. Since they have discovered Cranky, their elevators have not gone bare! The most recent project was producing and installing 6 more elevator wraps.

Lenovo wanted to promote their products and what better way to do that than with an elevator wrap.

Elevator wraps provide a consistent form of advertising that consumers cannot turn off or flip to another page. While waiting for an elevator people are usually staring aimlessly at the doors to open. Why not put a message where people are already looking? Elevator wraps provide a form of niche marketing; you are placing your message in their natural habitat and in their daily routine. This is exactly what Lenovo has accomplished with their elevator wraps.

For more information about how you can use elevator wraps to reach consumers visit www.crankycreative.com or call 877.311.7446!

Stop Human Trafficking Bus Wrap

Kenya- Vehicle wraps aren’t only for businesses promoting themselves or products; they can be used to provide awareness for a message also. The above vehicle wrap is to promote awareness in Kenya about human trafficking. The vehicle wrap cleverly provides the image of a young girl riding in the cabin of a bus to be sold into the human trafficking industry. And of course it provides the number to a help line to provide information.

The vehicle wrap promotes awareness of human trafficking and is also thought provoking. It encourages the viewer to question if a child is being sold into trafficking the next time they see a bus or van traveling. Because this vehicle wrap does not promote a product but rather an idea with imagery it also allows the vehicle ad to be remembered when a regular bus passes by. The viewer is more inclined to remember the picture of the little girl traveling in the cabin since they had seen the bus wrap previously.

This ability to recall the idea of human trafficking without seeing the actual wrap is exactly the type of presence and remembrance vehicle wraps create. Because they are mobile advertisements, vehicle wraps are able to reach far more people than a billboard or magazine/newspaper advertisement. And because they are seen by more people and usually have a lower cost per impression than traditional forms of advertising they have an increased return on investment.

Cranky Creative Group is able to create unique graphics to promote products, businesses and ideas similar to the one above. Be sure to contact CCG for your next advertising campaign, for less money than conventional advertising costs you can reach your customers where they have no choice but to see you-- on the road or in a parking lot!
