Frequently asked questions

How much does cinema advertising in Flint cost?

A 4-week campaign at Flint West 14 runs between $1,148 and $2,296, depending on ad format and placement. With only one theater in Flint, a single-theater buy and a citywide buy are the same investment. CPMs fall in the $37 to $45 range, consistent with Tier 3 market pricing across the Flint-Saginaw-Bay City region.

What types of businesses advertise in Flint movie theaters?

Local service businesses, regional retailers, healthcare providers, auto dealers, restaurants, and financial institutions are the most common cinema advertisers. The numbers explain why. Auto brands have seen 34% increases in foot traffic, retail advertisers report 53% more incremental visits, and QSR brands see 2 to 3 times their ad spend returned from cinema campaigns.

Where exactly do ads appear at Flint West 14?

Ads run on screen before the feature film begins, shown to a seated audience in a darkened theater. Depending on your package, placements can include the pre-show entertainment segment or the on-screen segment immediately before trailers. Both formats reach an audience that's settled, screens are large, and there's nothing else competing for their attention.

How does cinema advertising compare to TV or streaming in Flint?

Cinema delivers attention that TV and streaming cannot match. Moviegoers cannot skip ads, change the channel, or scroll past. Cinema attention ratings run 6 to 16 times higher than social and digital placements, and outperform CTV and YouTube. In a market like Flint, where 60% of moviegoers are cord-cutters or cord-nevers, the theater may be the only screen where you can reliably reach them.

Are there any industries that cannot advertise in Flint theaters?

Yes. Cinema advertising does not accept campaigns for alcohol, tobacco, firearms, cannabis, or political candidates and ballot measures. These restrictions apply at all theater locations, including Flint West 14. If your business falls into one of these categories, cinema is not an option regardless of budget or campaign scope.

How large is the moviegoing audience in Flint, and who are they?

Flint West 14 generates an estimated 28,000 monthly impressions across its 14 screens. Nationally, the cinema audience skews younger than most media platforms, with a median age of 30. Sixty-two percent identify as multicultural, and half attend as co-viewing families. For advertisers trying to reach younger adults and family households in Flint, that profile is hard to replicate on other channels.
