hi Eva....it is really simple , for me , anyway to get my foot in the door.
I take my little flip camera, put on my clown nose ( it is red ) , have the little ladies with me in bikinis ( them not me ) stroll around the area you wish to promote..and , believe it or not, folks come up to me, and ask ...what is going on? from there , it is all entertainment. thinking I will do one of those 'events' and sell it as a WSO...it would certainly be as good as the ones I have seen lately! btw...I notice that no one has bought my. Philsilatator.com software? come one guys, support each other??? thanks

I forgot how much fun it is to be here ~

Bob,

Standing under one of those metal roofs in the hot sun must have set off some of your brain's neutrons, protons. photons, megatrons or sis boom bahs. Wowee batman, bikinis and red noses...

When you do your next gig, please make a youtube post. I want to see that

Have a great day,

Tom

Bob, sounds to me you're ready to do some "ballooning"! I wish I had a link for you to the lady I saw years ago, twisting balloons at fairs and private parties, she was the bomb! Never seen anything like it and her fees started at $50 an hour for private parties and unlimited income doing fairs and festivals.

Back to the topic (booklets, remember...)?

pocketmod dot c o m (can't provide a link until I got 10 posts but you get it)
has an interesting way to fold and just with one snip, voila', done!

Here's my latest thinking.....

Would a town, city or (can't spell municipalty) possibly be interested in a "phone book" booklet with every imaginable phone number for whatever services they have to offer?

All emergency numbers, city hall, social services, dog pound, weed abatement, domestic violence, town major, city council, building department, hazardous waste and so on.

Yes, that would be on a larger scale and nothing I would be capable of assembling myself but if one booklet was included in whatever else the town sent out to their residents, no additional postage would be needed.

And yes, only testing will tell.

Watcha' think?

Eva

Still market for the ballooning...spring, summer, fall....think seasonal gathering places, malls with permission, beaches, flea markets, busy city street, etc..

Balloons handed out with donation box nearby....kids naturally drawn to them...no price charged...psychologically parent feels obligated to drop money in the donation box...not always but almost always...remuneration can be quite substantial.....and because not setting fixed prices but donations most areas will allow....could need a buskers license though in some locals.

Just food for thought.

I posted about this quite some time ago...probably in archives somewhere....heck...could even have been on a different forum.

I am a "one on one" kind of person meaning I do best speaking to one then to a crowd. Not that chatty in a group environment really. And when it comes to kids, well, don't have any, enough to take care of myself.....

Working through Paulette's archives right now, lots of good info. Dying to get the wso tomorrow, then I'm going to make up some samples for myself and by doing so, actually learning.

A big adventure ahead of me, hopefully profitable enough eventually,

Eva

Eva, what do you think of the latest from Bob Ross?

There's lots of good info in there ... still working on my "course of action" for it, but just learning some of the software info on the OTO will be worth the investment.

Good luck, and keep posting!
