School is starting...Take advantage of it and make your phones ring!


The kids are getting back into the routine of school. The staff is hopefully regaining some control of the students and it is now time for us to take advantage of a very cost effective way to reach out into our communities!

We did this last year at the school our son attended.  This year, we are going county wide and I am very excited to begin the foot work to get it done.  What is it?

Our company is going to sponsor MANY contests throughout the counties we market.  For the elementary schools, we are working on coloring contests.  For the middle schools, we will focus on something maybe something earth related.  For the high schools, I am not sure yet, but maybe it will history based.

We awarded ribbons to every participant and trophies in three age categories. We did this for less than $100 and the kids were elated!  We took their pictures, put them up on a website and the school paper even wrote an article on the contest.  Not only did we team up with the school as a business partner, but we held a contest that every participant could be proud of.  We also did a pizza party for the class with the most entries!

After the contest you can send a thank you note to the parents for allowing their children to participate.  Send them a business card and let them know your willing to reach out to other schools or organizations in the same way.  Be sincere about it!

You can expand on this idea in many ways.  You just need to be creative.

Being active in your community is one of the best ways to build your business.  Let people know it isn't all about the commission.  It is more about helping the community and making a difference.  Once you do this, you will want to do more and more.  The smile on a child's face is worth more than any amount of money!

If your in Clayton, Henry or Fayette counties, please contact me today.  I would love to put your organization at the top of my list!

That is really great!  I like the idea and the fact it is helping out the kids.  We are involved up here w/ the athletics and you are correct - nothing could be better than seeing smiling faces on little ones.  They are always so proud to get recognized.

I like your thinking.  I believe the word creative is at the top of what I have in mind.  I will mention this to my broker but I think I can probably come up with an idea and a preliminary plan to present.  My broker is all for low cost ideas with great marketing potential.

Thanks.

Brande, Great idea.  My daughter was always winner a pizza or popcorn party last year.  I remember a local Real Estate company sponsoring the science fair last year.  Goo information.

I've been doing little things with the kids' daycare like their Fall Festival, Halloween costume contest, and summer camp, and now that they started Kindergarten, I look forward to participating in school activities and sponsor some of their new activities. Great ideas and they work!

Nice ideas.  Going back to school is always a good time for all.  I think the senior citizens even get excited to see the kids on their way to school in the mornings:)
