About the newsletter

The Mobile Digital Billboard Newsletter Built for Owners and Operators

Digital Display Insider is the free newsletter from Legion LED Trucks for anyone starting, running or growing a mobile digital billboard (MDB) business.

Each issue is written by Jerry Teeter, owner and CEO of Legion LED Trucks, and covers the parts of the business that matter after the LED truck is parked in your driveway: how to price advertising, find and close local clients, stay compliant with DOT and sign rules, judge LED screen quality, plan your finances and build a brand that lasts.

There's no fluff and no recycled marketing advice. Every article comes from what we see every day selling LED trucks and mobile billboard trailers, licensing the Total360 business system, and running our own LED truck rental routes in Omaha and Lincoln.

FAQ

Mobile Digital Billboard Questions, Answered

What is Digital Display Insider?

Digital Display Insider is a free newsletter and blog from Legion LED Trucks about the mobile digital billboard business. It covers starting an MDB company, LED truck and screen buying advice, pricing, sales, compliance and growth, written by Jerry Teeter, owner and CEO of Legion LED Trucks.

What is a mobile digital billboard?

A mobile digital billboard is an LED video screen mounted on a truck or trailer. Instead of waiting for drivers to pass a fixed sign, the screen travels to where an advertiser's customers are: busy corridors, events, job sites and neighborhoods. Operators sell ad time on routes or book the truck for exclusive campaigns.

How much money can a mobile digital billboard make?

It depends on your market, your business model (shared routes vs. exclusive bookings), how many ad slots you sell and your pricing. Issue #39 walks through the honest math, and our free revenue calculator lets you plug in your own numbers.

Do I need a permit to run an LED billboard truck?

Rules vary by state, county and city, so check before you hit the road. Issue #8 covers DOT compliance and Issue #12 explains how federal guidelines and local sign ordinances apply to LED trucks.

Where can I buy an LED truck or mobile billboard trailer?

Legion LED Trucks sells new and used LED trucks and mobile billboard trailers with nationwide delivery. Browse the current inventory, explore financing or schedule a discovery call with our team.
