I dunno it just came to me. I always see people standing around handing out flyers for bars and stuff. Also people going around dorms handing out flyers. So my company would make it easier for businesses to get the word out to college students. I could do like different packages of promotion. Then do promotion for surrounding businesses and even maybe shows/band. These were all some ideas I was thinking about. If anyone has any ideas to add in to make it better go ahead.

not a new idea, people have done this for ages... Try and come up with something a little more creative. But your on the right track thought process wise.

Yea, I know its not a new idea.. but from what I've seen there isn't really a promotion company that specificially targets college campuses.

although it is not new form in ads, it might be realized by creative methods, often times people are tired of these ads, the next success might be those who interest people more.

Thats a nice idea, but i would like to see u sell a few customers successfully, let the market validate you before you commit to the idea.

If you can do that successfully i think you've got a winner

handing flyers out, etc is the traditional way to advertise around college, etc

personally, what i would like to see is a lot more organised and involved
for instance, you hire only college kids in or around campus
secondly, they use the products and showcase merchandise
and sell to their mates at special 'mates rates' whilst making some dough

something along those lines
i know that when i was on campus
word spreads like wild fire
if you have someone in the know and happy to spread the word
hey look just mention my name to get 20% off etc
it's more personal and makes people feel special

what are your thoughts?
