New York City Sticky Note Advertising

Sticky Notes are a fresh and unexpected guerrilla media tactic for New York. When they look handwritten, passersby feel they're discovering a message meant for someone else. Being naturally nosey, they read your note and absorb your message without realizing they're being advertised to.

Where we place sticky notes in New York

Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and other neighborhoods

High-traffic spots: streets near an event space, as Gradial did in Midtown, your best delivery zip codes, as Housing Works Cannabis Co. did, and even competitor conferences, where Mesh's team of 2 placed notes in the bathroom stalls.

Why sticky notes work in NYC

Under the radar. Handwritten-style notes feel like a message meant for someone else.
Simple. Stick them in high-traffic areas and people stop, read and snap pics.
Variety. Run several creatives at once. Gradial printed three designs for every location.
Offers that pop. Sesameorder.com gave away free food on 4x3" notes, and P&T Knitwear included a free coffee note.

How it works

1. Plan. We target the streets, zip codes or venues your audience passes.
2. Design. Go handwritten or bold and graphic, with multiple creatives and QR codes if you like.
3. Send art. Email final art to production@gogorillamedia.com.
4. Stick & report. Our team places the notes and you get a photo album.

Production

Questions about artwork go to our production department at production@gogorillamedia.com or 833.464.6745. Sticky notes also pair well with other tactics. Queens Rising combined sticky notes with sidewalk decals to celebrate the arts and culture of Queens.
