3. University and Education Campaigns
Boston’s large student population creates opportunities for education, recruiting, technology, entertainment, and event campaigns.

- University events

- Recruiting campaigns
- Conferences
- Workshops

A QR code can connect people to an application, registration form, event schedule, or program information.
Campaign planners should avoid suggesting a university partnership or endorsement unless one has been formally approved.

Street posters may promote public-facing campaigns for:
- Technology products
- Mobile applications
- Healthcare events
- Startup launches

A business poster should focus on one strong message instead of trying to explain the entire company.
The poster can introduce the brand while a website or QR code provides detailed product, event, or registration information.
Any medical or performance-related claims should be accurate, supported, and approved before printing.

- Product pages
- Application downloads
- Online stores
- Free trials

One clear message normally works better than a detailed product description.

The brand name and call to action should remain visible so people understand where the code will take them.

Campaign requests may be evaluated for areas such as:
- Downtown Boston
- Back Bay
- South End

- Allston
- Brighton
- Seaport District
- Jamaica Plain
- Dorchester

Mentioning an area does not guarantee poster inventory or authorize installation on public or private property. Every proposed location must be reviewed before booking.
Choosing the Right Poster Size
Poster dimensions affect viewing distance, repetition, printing, transportation, installation time, pricing, and surface coverage.
| Poster size | Recommended Boston campaign use |
|---|---|
| 8.5 × 11 inches | Small announcements and repeated grids |
| 11 × 17 inches | Events and neighborhood promotions |
| 24 × 36 inches | Music, restaurants, technology and fashion |
| 48 × 72 inches | Major launches and large wall displays |
Smaller posters allow greater repetition. Larger posters give photography, typography, and campaign artwork more visual scale.
