Glossier: A Digital Darling Ready for Outdoor
Glossier was built on social media buzz, sleek product design, and word-of-mouth rather than traditional advertising. Unlike brands such as Tesla, which famously avoids paid media, or Zara, which invests in store locations instead of ads, Glossier has relied almost entirely on Instagram and e-commerce to fuel its growth.
This strategy worked brilliantly for building a loyal online community, but it leaves a gap in physical awareness. An OOH campaign in Toronto would bridge this gap, transforming Glossier’s digital presence into an urban lifestyle brand that locals can see, experience, and engage with in the real world.
OOH Trends in Toronto
Toronto has become one of North America’s most exciting cities for outdoor advertising. With digital billboards, street murals, and transit networks expanding every year, the city is a hotspot for brands looking to connect with urban audiences.
While other companies have grown massively without much OOH investment, this actually opens an opportunity for Glossier. By being one of the few beauty brands to dominate the Toronto skyline, Glossier could stand out, capture attention where competitors are absent, and make a cultural statement in Canada’s fashion capital.
Minimalist Murals in Queen Street West
Murals are more than decoration in Toronto—they’re cultural landmarks. By creating large-scale, pastel-pink murals in trendy neighborhoods like Queen Street West, Glossier could replicate the same artistic impact that Patagonia achieves with purpose-driven visuals.
These murals wouldn’t just advertise products—they’d become Instagram-ready photo spots, reinforcing Glossier’s image as a brand that celebrates authenticity, creativity, and community.
Digital Billboards in Yonge-Dundas Square
Yonge-Dundas Square is Canada’s version of Times Square—high traffic, high visibility, and full of digital potential. If Glossier invested in dynamic digital billboards showcasing real customers, it could capture the diversity of Toronto and project inclusivity on a massive scale.
This approach would echo Shein’s experiment with moving billboards in Toronto but with a stronger aesthetic identity rooted in beauty and lifestyle. For Glossier, this would be the chance to shift from “social media beauty brand” to citywide cultural force.
