In January of 2001 William Loomis and William Prieto started Chautauqua Business Services, LLC. CBS began as an alternative advertising venue for clients when it was discovered that many businesses liked outdoor advertising, but could not afford traditional billboards.
At the same time Michael McVinney began Advertising Advantage as a billboard company. Mike kept his business overhead down which allowed him to compete with the major outdoor advertising company in the area by offering the same products for less.
In November of 2001, AA and CBS began a series of meetings discussing a possible merger. By March of 2002 the details had been negotiated and both companies reformed as Advertising Advantage, LLC.
Since the merger, AA continues to operate its advertising benches as its core products while continuing to build its billboard inventory. Additional revenue streams were added including:
- Interior and Exterior Bus Advertising
- Golf Displays
- Bus Shelters
- Mobile Advertising
At Advertising Advantage, LLC our history has shown our ability to find affordable and creative advertising solutions for our clients and a unique knack to generate revenue for our lessors.
