San Diego, CA (September 09, 2009) – The back of a pedicab proved to be a powerful advertising vehicle for companies hoping to get their message out to the 150,000 people in attendance at the 2009 Comic-Con convention. Throughout the week of the massive annual pop culture convention, VIP Pedicab adorned 225 pedicab bikes moving across downtown San Diego with billboards advertising a new movie, t.v. show, and a production company with the professional drivers decked out in matching t-shirts.
Focus Features purchased a fleet of 100 pedicabs to bring attention to their upcoming movie, “Nine”, and Showtime also used 100 pedicabs to promote their primetime cable show, “Dexter”. Similarly, After Dark Films took advantage of the exposure to the large convention crowds with their message embellished on 25 pedicabs zooming around the city.
“This was the first time our company worked on such a large advertising campaign using this many pedicabs,” said Ali Horuz, president of VIP Pedicab. “The decorated pedicabs and festive t-shirts that our drivers wore each day were a hit with the show’s attendees and the inquiries we received about the ads were non-stop.”
"After Dark Films promotes Horrorfest "8 Films to Die For" in creative and inventive ways each year. Making yourself seen during the San Diego Comic-Con is a difficult task. However, speaking with Ali, the owner of VIP Pedicabs, he understood our mission and created a unique and inventive package. They enabled us to get our promotional materials directly into our fans hands, incorporate our pedicab team in our video's while providing incredible mobile billboards throughout the entire convention in key locations. It was an absolute pleasure working with them & a thrill to have seen our Horrorfest 4 pedicab promotion work effectively at a reasonable cost," said Sara Finder, Director of Horrorfest. "I look forward to working with them again."

LOCAL PEDICAB BUSINESS MOVES MESSAGES
AROUND DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO
January 02, 2009 ( San Diego , CA) – Moving your message in front of a large downtown San Diego audience has never been easier thanks to VIP Pedicab’s new mobile outdoor advertising. The pedicab company has recently begun offering local businesses and companies visiting for a convention the opportunity to splash their message all over downtown San Diego on the back of VIP Pedicab’s modern pedicab trailers.
“During the past ComicCon convention, a Hollywood movie studio used the backside of a hundred pedicabs in addition to using our three-sided mobile billboard to advertise their upcoming Hamlet movie,” explained Ali Horuz, President of VIP Pedicab. “The studio was looking for a new way to promote their movie to the thousands of people attending ComicCon, and our pedicab billboards provided great exposure for their message as the bikes zipped around downtown all week long.”
VIP Pedicab has been reaching out to businesses that plan to visit San Diego for an upcoming convention and may want to advertise their product or service on their pedicabs to the meeting attendees. Besides the billboard advertising, VIP Pedicab has also created arrangements with companies to use pedicabs to transport their clients and guests back and forth to special events held downtown.
"Using VIP Pedicab was a great way to advertise our Internet business during a large industry event in San Diego and it really helped our company stand out from the crowd!", said David Ptak, President of SolidProfessor. Everyone attending the convention (along with the rest of downtown San Diego) noticed the colorful signs hanging on the bikes and the riders decked out in t-shirts advertising our company. Using pedicabs as moving advertisements turned out to be an affordable, yet fresh way to create awareness for our business. We would definitely use VIP Pedicab again!."
