Street-level marketing, printed and installed by us.
Guerrilla marketing puts your brand on Chattanooga 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.

Why street media works in Chattanooga.
Chattanooga routes the Tennessee Innovation Corridor through a riverside design district that has been documenting itself on Instagram since 2014. The Tennessee Riverwalk pulls 1.2 million pedestrian visits a year, and the pedestrian Walnut Street Bridge connects North Shore to Downtown at full foot-traffic density. The corridor functions as a documentation engine on its own, so posters along riverside frontage earn organic Instagram pickup. Long-tenancy property relationships make multi-week campaigns possible without renegotiating wall access mid-run.
Three reasons brands book us here
- 1Gig City tech corridor plus design-district frontage
Chattanooga's Innovation District concentrates SaaS, robotics, and EPB-fiber-adjacent companies inside a tight Downtown grid. Posters along Market Street, Broad Street, and Main Street put work in front of founders, product leads, and the recruiting pipeline that pulls talent from Atlanta and Nashville. The North Shore and Southside add design-studio and DTC-brand audiences inside walking distance.
- 2Bluff View and Southside, the long-tenancy walls
Bluff View Arts District holds the densest gallery-and-studio tenancy in the southeast Tennessee market. The Southside warehouse district between 13th and 20th Streets carries raw brick that takes paste cleanly and property owners with multi-year tenant relationships. Both corridors hold wall access campaign after campaign without renegotiation.
- 3Riverside foot traffic that documents itself
The Tennessee Riverwalk pulls 1.2 million pedestrian visits annually through Downtown and the North Shore. The pedestrian Walnut Street Bridge connects both sides at full foot-traffic density. Posters along the riverside frontage earn organic Instagram pickup because the corridor functions as a documentation engine on its own.

Surfaces, permits & timing
Surfaces
5 neighborhoods on the active route: wheatpaste walls, scaffold corners, and mural-ready sites scouted per brief. Brick, concrete, hoarding, and storefront.
Permit path
In Chattanooga, paste-up is cleared only on private property, and we get the owner's written consent in hand before any wall goes up. Downtown sits inside an Innovation District boundary that welcomes outdoor activation but keeps posting off TVA Riverpark fixtures, the Tennessee Aquarium plaza, and CARTA transit shelters; the Bluff View Arts District carries historic overlays, so we work from a list of pre-cleared addresses and run every protected facade past the Chattanooga Historic Zoning Commission before anything goes to print. City right-of-way, public structures, and utility poles are all closed to posting under Chattanooga Municipal Code §22-23, with Code Enforcement fielding complaints on a 21-to-35-day window, so none of it ever gets a sheet. TVA controls the Tennessee Riverpark frontage — the Walnut Street Bridge fixtures and the riverside trail furniture along it — as federal property that stays untouched by default.
When to run
The Riverwalk corridor is ideal April through October. Winter months run on normal schedules with longer cure windows. During July and August crews install early-morning to lock paste before afternoon humidity peaks, with cure windows two to four hours faster than in drier markets. Installs run seven to ten days from creative lock to first wall, same-week when print files arrive ready-to-press. Design-week activations and conference cycles at the Chattanooga Convention Center anchor short-cycle launch windows.

Buyer questions.
What Chattanooga brand managers ask on intake calls. Permit reality, lead time, minimums, photo proof. If your question isn't here, brief us directly.
Q · 01 Is wheatpasting legal in Chattanooga?
Legal on private walls once the owner signs off in writing, which our crews lock down before a single sheet goes up. Chattanooga Municipal Code §22-23 keeps public structures, utility poles, and city right-of-way off the table, and we extend that to CARTA transit shelters, the Tennessee Aquarium plaza, and TVA's Walnut Street Bridge fixtures. Inside the Bluff View Arts District, protected addresses run against the Chattanooga Historic Zoning Commission list before we print, so the only facades we touch there are pre-cleared.
Q · 02 How much does a Chattanooga campaign cost?
Campaigns open at $3,500 with printing and installation both baked in. Stretching a run across the Downtown grid, Frazier Avenue, the Southside warehouse strip, Bluff View, and St. Elmo pushes it up from there, since the number follows print volume and crew days on the ground rather than whose poster it is. Send the brief and a firm quote lands within 24 to 48 hours.
Q · 03 Which Chattanooga neighborhoods get coverage?
Five corridors. Downtown runs Market Street and Broad Street through the Innovation District's founder-and-product-lead crowd; North Shore takes Frazier Avenue, the densest pedestrian traffic outside the core; Southside works the raw warehouse brick on Main and Cowart between 13th and 20th. Bluff View adds historic gallery frontage up High Street toward the river bluff, and St. Elmo covers the residential-commercial overlap out to the Lookout Mountain Incline approach.
Q · 04 How long does it take to launch a Chattanooga campaign?
Roughly seven to ten days from locking creative to the first wall, and same-week is doable when print files land ready-to-press and property access is already cleared. The Riverwalk corridor runs best April through October; winter installs go up on the usual schedule but need longer cure windows. Through the July and August humidity, crews paste early morning so sheets set before the afternoon peak.
Q · 05 Can BSM run tech-launch and SaaS briefs in Chattanooga?
That's a natural fit here. The Innovation District packs SaaS founders, product leads, and the EPB-fiber-adjacent recruiting pipeline into a tight Downtown grid, so we aim launch creative at the high-traffic tech walls along Market Street and Broad Street. Installs can be timed to a conference cycle at the Chattanooga Convention Center for a short-window launch, and install photos come back for your own portfolio use within a day or two of going up.
