Street-level marketing, printed and installed by us.
Guerrilla marketing puts your brand on the street where people actually walk, not on a screen they scroll past. We run it with wheatpaste posters (big paper prints brushed onto a wall with a flour-based paste), hand-painted murals, sidewalk stencils, pole snipes, and interior takeovers, all printed and installed by one crew. No media-owner middleman, no billboard rates. Every placement across Maine is permitted, hand-applied, and photographed the day it goes up. It's how culture-driven brands in fashion, music, film, tech, and fitness get seen in a market.
- 01 Brief & route
You send the brand, markets, and dates. We map the Maine cities and corridors where that buyer actually walks and price off the published floor.
- 02 Scout & 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.
- 03 Print & install
We print in-house and hand-install from dawn, market by market. One accountable crew owns it end to end, with no print-shop handoff to a freelance installer.
- 04 Document
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.

The state law. The city rules.
Every Maine placement runs on permitted walls and written owner consent, with a documented paper trail. Zero municipal removals on record.
State frame. Maine statute governs ads visible from federal-aid highways, the layer most agencies misread as "the law." Street-level work is governed city-by-city: Augusta runs on city sign permits + owner consent (5-8 day lead in tier-1 corridors), and Bangor layers its own BIDs and improvement districts on top.
What that means for you. Every Maine city below is audited for the real permit path, and lead times reflect actual owner/BID response, not statutory minimums. We don't run paid work on transit property, state DOT right-of-way, or federal parkland; if a brief routes there, we redirect to adjacent private surfaces and document it in writing.
| City | Primary permit path | Owner consent + cost | Lead time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Augusta | Owner consent + scout-and-install field check | $0-500 owner fee · per-property | 7-12 d |
| Bangor | Owner consent + scout-and-install field check | $0-500 owner fee · per-property | 7-12 d |
| Portland | Owner consent + scout-and-install field check | $0-500 owner fee · per-property | 7-12 d |
Why street media works across Maine.
Portland and Bangor carry Maine's two working install audiences. Portland's Old Port runs summer tourism and year-round Northeast creative class; Bangor runs interior downtown commerce and the University of Maine system periphery. Moderate enforcement, long landlord relationships, and a real winter calendar that shifts the surface mix from December through March.

Portland Old Port for the summer tourist economy and the year-round Northeast creative class. Bangor for the interior downtown, the healthcare corridor, and the UMaine system periphery. Two cities, two calendars, two different cuts of creative. The crew that runs Congress Street in July runs Hammond Street in October. Got a wall? We’ve got the paste.

Permits in Maine
Maine Revised Statutes Title 17 § 3911 covers property damage without owner consent. With written consent, the install is legal. We hold consent on file for every wall before paste goes up. Neither Portland nor Bangor requires additional municipal permits for private-property installs.
Private property plus written consent. No public infrastructure, no transit, no right-of-way.
Services available in Maine

- Pole sticker advertising
- Interior installs
Maine runs on the calendar. Summer is Old Port density, brewery walls, and tourist foot traffic that churns daily. Winter shifts weight to interior installs, pole stickers, and the long-hold downtown walls that get nobody covering them for thirty days. The crew that hits Portland in July is the same crew refreshing Bangor in February, and the landlord who said yes in year one is the one calling about year three.
Cross the state line.
Maine clients regularly run regional buys that spill into neighboring markets. Same operator contract, same field log. Different state line.
Statewide FAQ.
The questions every Maine brief opens with, answered with the operator answer, not the marketing one.
Q · 01 Where in Maine do you run campaigns?
Portland (Old Port, Munjoy Hill, West End, Congress Street corridor) and Bangor (downtown State Street, Hammond Street area, UMaine system periphery). Portland pulls Northeast creative class plus summer tourist density. Bangor pulls interior downtown, healthcare, and university audiences. Brief the city, the dates, and the audience and we route the campaign through the matching corridor.
Q · 02 Why Portland and Bangor first?
Portland (metro 540,000) is the state's largest city and the hub for tourism, nonprofits, and creative industries. Bangor (metro 150,000) holds the interior and offers distinct audience clusters. Both cities have working landlord relationships and institutional partners that move quickly once the brief lands.
Q · 03 What makes Maine different from Massachusetts or New Hampshire?
Maine's identity is local, cause-driven, and environmentally conscious. Nonprofits, political campaigns, and outdoor brands get a stronger read here than south of the border. Templated national creative gets ignored; work that names the place, the cause, or the local maker gets photographed. We brief that into every Maine creative routing call.
Q · 04 What does Maine law say about street advertising?
Maine Revised Statutes Title 17 § 3911 covers property damage and defacement without owner consent. With written consent, the install is legal. We hold consent on file for every wall before paste goes up. Portland and Bangor both treat owner-approved brand installs as routine; enforcement targets vandalism and tagging, not paperwork-backed work.
Q · 05 Do you run interior installs in Maine?
Year-one focus is wheatpaste, stencils, and pole stickers, with interior installs available in Portland coffee shops, breweries, and Old Port retail from launch. Bangor interior expands in year two as the property network thickens. Coffee culture in Portland and downtown retail in Bangor both carry strong interior-install fit.
