Most of these temporary plywood walls, when they initially go up, are covered in stenciled signs saying "post no bills."
Week or two later, and they're covered in these cheap poster ads.
- dan_the_welder 18y agoWell I flyer for my business and we typically put a single flyer in several locations, sticking to billboards or phone poles. Whats really gross is when an ad agency uses a "street team" to carpet bomb every available surface. I also provide a bulletin board for public use in my establishment. I regularly have to remove the posters of people who put up ten or more and cover up other peoples flyers. I also remove the flyers that people put on my front windows, the bathroom mirrors and even tabletops. So really I see this issue as exactly the same as managing a message board. Encourage good content and delete spam or your board becomes a ghetto with a lousy signal to noise ratio. As far as the artists go, whether they are better or worse than the ads is a subjective decision. If anything they are at least creating a dialogue which is worth something.
