Street-level marketing, printed and installed by us.
Guerrilla marketing puts your brand on Kailua-Kona streets where people actually walk — wheatpaste posters, hand-painted murals, sidewalk stencils, pole snipes, and interior takeovers, printed and installed by one crew. No media-owner middleman, no billboard rates: every placement is permitted, hand-applied, and photographed the day it goes up.
- 01Brief & route
You send the brand, dates, and audience. We map the Kailua-Kona corridors where that buyer actually walks and price off the published floor.
- 02Scout & secure
Crews scout walls on foot, then lock every surface in writing: owner agreement, BID-cleared scaffold, or permitted hoarding. The paper trail ships with the photos.
- 03Print & install
We print in-house and hand-install from dawn, moving neighborhood to neighborhood. Scout-and-install routes the brief on a per-market schedule.
- 04Document
Every placement shot wide, mid, and detail, GPS-stamped on install day. The wrap deck lands within five business days with the full proof set.

Why street media works in Kailua-Kona.
Kona is a walkable visitor economy concentrated on a short oceanfront spine. Most of the foot traffic that matters moves along Alii Drive and through Kailua Village, where tourists, residents, and the dining crowd share the same few blocks. A tight campaign on the right corridor reaches almost everyone who passes through the town center. The market is essentially untouched by national street campaigns, so well-placed work owns the corridor, and during Ironman week it owns it for an audience that flew in from around the world.
Three reasons brands book us here
- 1Alii Drive and Kailua Village saturation
We run saturation campaigns through Alii Drive and Kailua Village where Kona's visitor crowds and Ironman race-week traffic actually walk. Documented placements, every time.
- 2Salt-air installers
Our crews paste through Kona's coastal sun and salt air and know which sheltered surfaces hold and which turn over fastest. No guesswork, no wasted placements.
- 3Permits handled
We pull permits where required and run legal placements only. You get the buzz without the liability.

Surfaces, permits & timing
Surfaces
3 neighborhoods on the active route: wheatpaste walls, scaffold corners, and mural-ready sites scouted per brief. Brick, concrete, hoarding, and storefront.
Permit path
Hawaii County code enforcement keeps a close watch on Alii Drive and the Kailua Village core, so we pull permits wherever a placement calls for one and hang work only on legal walls and privately owned surfaces backed by written owner consent, never public utility poles, transit, or right-of-way. The relationships we hold with property owners and venue managers up and down the Alii Drive and Kailua Village corridors are what make compliant placements move quickly in a compact visitor town, and every install returns GPS-stamped with photo proof.
When to run
Coastal sun and salt air fade and lift placements on exposed oceanfront surfaces, so we steer priority work to shaded corridors, awnings, and sheltered walls a step back from the water, and we plan refresh installs for full-festival runs. Kona's calendar swings with the visitor season and a few marquee events. The Ironman World Championship in October is the biggest single surge of the year. The Kona Coffee Cultural Festival in November runs multi-week. The Kona Brewers Festival fills the village in spring. Holiday and winter visitor season peaks December into spring, and King Kamehameha Day brings a June parade through the village. Install ahead of the surge, not during it.

Q · 01 Where can I run wheatpasting campaigns in Kailua-Kona?
The corridors that carry Kona's foot traffic are Alii Drive, where oceanfront walls and shopping-village poles sit right where visitors and the dining crowd walk the water; Downtown Kona, a step back from the shoreline on commercial walls and venue exteriors; and the historic Kailua Village core, which packs event-driven placements. We keep every campaign on legal walls and permissioned private surfaces with written owner consent, and we leave utility poles, transit, and public right-of-way alone.
Q · 02 How much does guerrilla marketing cost in Kailua-Kona?
Kona campaigns open at $3,500, with printing and installation both baked into that floor. Stretch the run across Alii Drive, Downtown Kona, and the Kailua Village core, or scale up the print sizes and service mix, and the number climbs from there. We turn a firm quote around inside 24 to 48 hours.
Q · 03 Do you handle permits for Kailua-Kona installs?
Yes. Hawaii County code enforcement works Alii Drive and the village core hard, so we pull permits wherever they're required and paste only on legal walls and private property carrying written owner consent. The standing relationships we hold with property owners and venue managers across the Alii Drive and Kailua Village corridors are what let compliant placements happen fast in a tight visitor town, and each one returns GPS-stamped with photo proof within a day or two of install.
Q · 04 How fast can you launch a campaign in Kailua-Kona?
Figure 5 to 7 business days from creative approval to crews on the corridor. Kona's coastal sun and salt air lift placements off exposed oceanfront surfaces, so we steer toward the sheltered walls, awnings, and poles a block back in Downtown Kona and time install windows to the conditions. With the Ironman surge hitting in October, we plan to go up ahead of the crowd rather than during it, and photo proof lands within a day or two of install.
