The Challenge

Staying Within Budget While Going Bold

With four creatives and the desire for widespread impact, the team needed a solution that maximized exposure without stretching the budget. Every poster placement had to count.

Campaign Solution

Focusing on Local Hotspots

To reach more locals, we avoided tourist-heavy areas like Broadway and focused on East Nashville and Midtown. Each of the 20 locations displayed all four creative designs, generating buzz throughout neighborhoods.

Social Element

Organic Reach Through Active Social Channels

While the campaign didn’t include a formal social plan, the Predators’ Instagram presence (with nearly 500k followers) helped amplify exposure organically.

Street-level visibility translated into social media engagement, creating a multiplier effect that extended the campaign’s reach far beyond the physical posters.

Implementation

From Concept to Execution in Four Months

We proposed ideal locations, managed creative recommendations, and handled install logistics. The campaign lasted two weeks, leveraging Wild Posting® across 20 locations with at least four posters per site.

Posters were placed on walls, barricades, and high-traffic public areas, ensuring maximum visibility throughout Nashville’s most vibrant neighborhoods.

Results & Engagement

3.8 Million Impressions in 2 Weeks

The campaign delivered strong visibility, capturing the attention of local fans and community members across Nashville’s most active neighborhoods.

By focusing on resident-heavy areas rather than tourist zones, the campaign successfully connected with the Predators’ core audience—the people who fill the seats at Bridgestone Arena.

"Our Nashville office's deep understanding of local culture and high-traffic areas allowed for precise targeting of both residents and visitors downtown."
