Put your brand on the road with DriveAds. Compare the packages, think through your campaign and ask Jude for a personal introduction.

Make the commitment tangible
Start with an amount you would be comfortable committing for the initial term. Add vehicles only when the coverage and campaign purpose justify it for your business.
The estimate below uses the advertised rates above. It is a planning calculation; DriveAds confirms VAT, any additional charges and the final subscription details.
Monthly payments and paying three months upfront have the same advertised total. No upfront discount is assumed.

A stronger brief makes a stronger advert
An advert seen in passing needs a clear message. Before choosing a package, decide what you would like someone to remember or do next.
Think about where your customers live, work or travel. A shop might prioritise its catchment area; a local service business might want visibility around the towns it can serve. Ask DriveAds how the available coverage fits that brief.
Make the business name and main offer easy to recognise. Share a clear logo, a short line explaining the service and the website or contact route you want people to use. Check the artwork for readability before approving it.
A dedicated landing page, a campaign code or asking “How did you hear about us?” can help you understand responses. If you choose Premium, discuss where the QR code should lead. Keep your own enquiry and sales records alongside the provider’s coverage estimates.
Send your business name, website, preferred area, main service, intended timing and approximate budget. Jude can introduce you to DriveAds so you can discuss a suitable campaign.
You can discuss a coverage area, but participating drivers follow their normal journeys. Specific routes, exposure and sales are not guaranteed. Ask what coverage DriveAds expects for your chosen area.
Impressions and coverage are estimates, rather than audited counts of people who saw the advert. The Standard photo pack adds evidence of placement; it does not establish sales performance.
The advertised initial term is three months, followed by rolling monthly billing. Cancellation after that term requires email notice to DriveAds at least 14 days before the next billing date. Its FAQ says already-billed months are not refunded.
Timing depends on artwork and a suitable driver match. Confirm the installation date and artwork deadline before subscribing. DriveAds’ terms say artwork delays do not pause billing.
Ask Jude for an introduction and tell DriveAds you came through FindMyMeds. Links on this page identify FindMyMeds as the source, but any referral reward is subject to the arrangement confirmed with DriveAds.
