Testimonials

"We chose AJ Indoor to launch the new myTalk 107.1 brand for several reasons: their business history in the marketplace for over-delivering on their promises, their incredible attention to detail, knowledge and belief in our product as well as being able to target to our demographic with absolutely no waste. It’s not too often that you enter into a business relationship with a company that will go above and beyond your expectations to ensure you are happy and that your campaign is a success. "

Fast forward the calendar to today, and my company 2nd Wind Exercise equipment is currently featured in over 300 of your AJ Indoor Twin Cities locations for which we are experiencing positive results on a very affordable investment.”

About Us

Jim ArabanosAJ Indoor Advertising was originally founded in Minnesota in 1987 by Jim Arabanos, President and CEO. By 1997 the company had grown to over 50 top markets nationwide. In 2000 AJ indoor was acquired by a large national outdoor corporation. In 2009, Arabanos and investors bought back the original company to expand on the new, exciting indoor opportunities. Our staff has over 40 years of combined local and national media experience!

Today, we continue our tradition of providing flexible and cost effective advertising packages to meet your target audience and marketing objectives. We have over 15,000+ advertising panels throughout the Twin Cities and greater metro area in venues such as restaurants, nightclubs, all major sports stadiums, bars, parking ramps and the Minnesota State Fairgrounds.
