What is the best place to hang posters and create displays?
In Stores and Businesses
- Hang posters / displays in the front of the store if possible.
- Other great places include near the sales area, cash register, or on bulletin boards already established for flyer posting.
- Use clear tape when hanging on windows or on store walls.
- Use thumb tacks or staples for cork boards.
- If you see that a bulletin board in a venue or store is covered only in thumb tacks and no staples, use thumb tacks.
- Use staple guns for posting flyers on wooden street poles. Regular office staples will not work on street poles.
- Staple hammers are more expensive than staple guns but worth the investment if you will be posting a lot of flyers. They are much easier to use than staple guns.
- Use clear packaging tape for metal street poles.
- Try not to cover up flyers that have already been posted, unless the event has already passed or if there is no more room.
- Post on poles that already have signs posted, not on bare poles. Some poles are designated for posting, and your flyers may be torn down if they are in the wrong place.
- Do not hang flyers outside if it looks like it’s going to rain! All of your hard work will be washed away.
- Wait for a sunny day for outdoor posting, and post in-doors on rainy days. It’s a good idea to check out the forecast.
In Venues
- Post flyers inside bathroom stalls. They won’t get torn down as quickly by venue owners.
- Sometimes venues have established a bulletin board for upcoming shows.
- Usually they will not allow you to post a flyer for an event at a competing venue.
When is the best time to hang a flyer?
- It is best to hang flyers a week prior to the concert. There will be less chance of flyers being torn down or covered up, but enough exposure time to effectively advertise the show.
- Do not hang flyers outside if it looks like it’s going to rain! All of your hard work will be washed away. Wait for a sunny day for outdoor posting, and post in-doors on rainy days. It helps to check the weather first.
