Question Advertise to College STudents

I am 10 and I want to advertise to college students or other people the same age. College newspapers seem like a good idea but i want to find some free classifieds or something else that is little money so i can find out what works first before I spend more money on bigger ads. Some one told me that night time radio might be a good place to advertise too and that is good because I want to reach people who are up late. Who has some ideas for me?

It can depend on what it is you are advertising, so what do you want to advertise?

My business is a wake up service. people tell me what time they need to get up in the morning and I call them. I can only work before my bus comes but my dad can make calls a little after that if i ask him to. now i only have family customers but i want more and my mom can help me take pay pal money.

Why should someone use your service? People can just wake up to an alarm clock?

Just try to learn as much about business as possible. Its great that you're starting at this age.

That is awesome you are that young starting, I wish I got a start at that age. How much do you charge for your service? Maybe you could add something else like a reminder of things they need to do that day or something, to make it not just like an alarm clock.

Hey little dude it is awesome that you are creating business ideas at such a young age. You have to think of what value your product brings over others. I know I can have my alarm clock wake me up then hit a calnedar button on my lap top to see what I have to do for the day. As a college student the idea of a 10 year old clling me after a night of drinking seems a tad strange, and god knows what kids would say to you. Anyways, make the wake up viral, make it customizable. Maybe business people on vacation would like to wake up to the voice of their loved ones, just like your family does. Although you might not be able to do this, celebrity wake up calls are becoming popular. Think it through search competition and aternatives and find what they lack.

on further thought, what if you had a quote for the day, something positive, that you could share with everyone in the morning? something motivational or clever, even a joke. I think a lot of people would like that
