SNIPES, FLYPOSTING, WILD POSTING, THE OUTDOOR ADS WITH THE MOST NAMES!
WILD POSTINGS
PERFECT FOR FASHION, FILM, OR MUSIC.
In a world that has gone high tech and everything is in the cloud, there are still ways of guerilla marketing that are old school and way more effective. Like the wanted outlaws of the old west whose bounties were advertised to every hired gun, except now the only thing that will be wanted from these posters is your product or service!
Wild posting is most effective for driving awareness, whether you’re advertising an upcoming concert, a new album or a film release. You want to do it in areas where your target demographic will be hanging out, to spread the word to people who will respond to the ads.
What exactly is wild posting, how do you execute a campaign, and will you break the law if you do it? Here’s the full scoop on wild posting and why it might be right for your next campaign.
What is a Wild Posting Campaign?
Like a rock through a window, this form of out of home advertising isn’t new, but it’s effective. It’s been called a lot of things, like Flyposting, Bill Posting, and Wild Posting; but the act is the same getting your posters posted in high traffic areas to bring the message to the people. A style that guerrilla marketing companies once used for underground concerts is now being used for millions of successful businesses. Get your message seen in areas of amazing visibility and populace while receiving a massive return on investment.
Is it Legal?
We would never encourage anyone or any business to break the law, and none of our clients ever pay any fines. We are trying to simply add urban color to the gray landscapes while making sure that your products and services get to the people. Will it annoy private property owners? Probably. Will it cause the SWAT team to be called? Never.
