Starship Advertised On Door Hangers

Starship Door Hanger Advertising

Starship distributed door hangers in certain neighborhoods to promote its robot delivery service. Workers delivered and hung the door hangers on the handles of doors in target zip codes. The door hanger distribution was tracked and many doors were photographed. Door hangers gave Starship the ability to microtarget zip codes and "put something" in the hands of a home's residents.
