At Grassroots, we define Off the Wall campaigns as Wildposting® that have one or more objects attached to them. The purpose of the item varies from campaign to campaign. Sometimes it’s free samples for pedestrians to take home with them. Other times, the objective is just to make the poster stick out.
Here are our top 10 Off the Wall campaigns…
