I wanna promote something. I've been looking for these guys for years. I've always heard of the idea of street teams. I know the concept from loud records and wu-tang being promoted in different neighborhoods where you have guys come around in the dead of night putting up flyers.

I need some people like that, Anyone know how to contact a street team to do that for my product??? I need advertising but dont have the money to pay for commercials or a billboard. or magazine ad.

If you live in NYC, then fukking forget about it unless you ONLY want to promote in the hood. In the mid-90s, the street team thing reached its peak and these cats would pass out flyers, give out cassette samples, paste up posters on wall, give out/put up stickers. But what destroyed the whole shyt is when they would staple 2 posters back to back and put them around street lights and sign posts. The city finally had enough of that shyt and banned it because the street teams were ODing with it and posters above other posters on street lights/poles and eventually beefing with each other. It was easy to know who was putting up these posters because it was all affiliated with the record labels and they didn't wanna deal with being fined over and over again.

In a sense, the shyt got played out but if you come to the hood it is VERY common to see posters for merengue/salsa/bachata/reggaeton artists all over fences that border open lots because those artists are doing shows at all of these spanish food restaurants and clubs. But on a mainstream level, that shyt is dead in NY.

They still out there tho... I dont care about the crazy shyt. I'm talking about little sticks and book flyers. nothing crazy on the lamposts type of shyt. start small first and foremost build a buzz.
