Advertising College Students

[legacysigns]

Has anyone had success advertising to the college students. We have tried radio, college newspaper and some Greek flyers. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to effectively advertise to a college population?

write "Free Food" on all your ads.

What are you selling?

I actually did some marketing for a Local Rock Radio station to college students.

We printed custom matchbook condoms with the message on one side and the logo on the other. Then we put a dirty joke on the inside flap. Worked wonders.

One free blunt with every purchase!

T-shirts. Seriously, college students will sell their souls for a free t-shirt.

Pat is right T-shirts, condoms, and beer. The only things that will get a college kids attention for longer than 15 seconds.

Don't forget the pizza. They have to have something to soak up all that booze.

Custom Beer Pong tables are the way to go. Print, laminate and gorilla tape around the edges.

Maybe you can tell us a little about yourself and what you are trying to do/sell.You might want to give them this you will be God to them.

The greek letters are licensed products. Contact the national governing body for each frat house and sorority and get the license to do the work.

For anything else, throw a party and invite them.

The guy is in Auburn....there's more disposable income running around that place than most large cities have. Between the spoiled little rich kids and the student loans there's a fountain of cash if you can find a niche.

t-shirts were a big one for me ... that and I would raffle off a free custom skateboard during the summer ... I wish I were in orlando again ... so much cash for stupid stuff they want. I think in 2 years I made about 180 skateboard wraps ... mostly repeat business.
