POSTER DISTRIBUTION THAT STAYS IN THE RIGHT PLACE.
Targeted poster campaigns across London and Kent — placed in shops, music stores and other suitable locations agreed around the brief.
Plan a poster campaign
A flyer travels. A poster stays.
THE POSTER HAS TO EARN ITS SPACE.
A flyer is handed to a person and goes wherever they go. A poster stays in one permitted place and is seen by whoever passes it. That changes the job: the location, the message and who walks past matter more than how many posters are printed.
Rolodex Rebels places posters in shops, music stores and other suitable locations where the campaign has a reason to be seen. Locations are agreed for each brief across London and Kent. We do not publish a fixed list of sites, and this is not an exclusive poster network.
The outcome:
Posters placed in relevant, permitted locations where the right audience has a reason to look.
Who it is for:
Promoters, venues, festivals, artists, labels and other music and event campaigns with a local audience to reach in London or Kent.
How the work moves
FROM AUDIENCE TO PLACEMENT.
Choose the location because of who sees it, not because there is space on a wall.

Shops & music stores
Posters placed in shops, music stores and other suitable locations where the audience has a reason to look.
Location planning
Agree the locations around the audience, the area and the date — not around how many spaces happen to be free.
Message for a fixed site
A poster is read in passing. Keep the name, date, place and next step legible from a distance.
Print coordination
Posters can be coordinated as part of the campaign — production and supply, not a print shop.
Alongside flyers
Leaflet and flyer distribution can be added where a person-to-person moment would help the same campaign.
Physical to digital — where useful
A POSTER CAN STILL POINT SOMEWHERE.
A QR code or short campaign URL can give a poster a next step — tickets, a release, RSVP or sign-up. A scan is a countable signal. It does not prove that every ticket sold came from the poster.

Connected thinking
PERMITTED PLACES ONLY.
Poster distribution here means posters displayed where they are allowed to be — shops, music stores and other suitable locations agreed on the brief. It is not unauthorised flyposting.
Placement depends on each location agreeing to display the poster. Rules on advertising and fly-posting vary by area; this page describes the service and is not legal advice.
Questions about poster distribution?
Short answers. The guides cover the choice between posters and flyers in more detail.
Where do you put posters?
In shops, music stores and other suitable locations across London and Kent, agreed for each brief around the audience and the date. There is no published list of sites and no exclusive network — the locations follow the campaign.
Is poster distribution the same as flyposting?
No. Posters go where a location has agreed to display them. Unauthorised flyposting is not part of this service.
Should I use posters or flyers?
A poster suits a place the audience keeps returning to, with a message short enough to read in passing. A flyer suits a moment when people gather, like a queue or a show night. Many live campaigns use both at different points.
