Brainstorming

That's awesome!

I was telling a few of my new subs about the bcards at the bookstores. One of them took it a little further and went to stores and put cards in card shufflers, chips sets, and poker tables. Pretty smart. Im going to hit the walmarts. targets and kmarts this week.I think I will need to order another 1000 bcards.

That is a great idea. Never thought of that. Any other ideas you have up your sleeve?

I have a buddy who delivers over 400 newspapers. I'm gonna see if I can pay him to put Party Poker flyers with my Bonus Code in the mix of advertisements.
He usually plays by the book so he might not go for it.

I live about a 45 minute drive from San Francisco. One of my bonus codes is GiantsFan, I got that idea from somebody in this forum. Great idea. San Francisco is an advertiser's wet dream.

Anybody have any good ideas for advertising flyers in a big city?

one word mate...

pizza shops.....

See if you can make a deal with a few!

Pizza shops? Another good one. Funny you say that, I deliver pizza for Domino's. I make over 400 deliveries per month. I thought about putting a business card on each pizza box I deliver but I'm sure the store will get a complaint eventually so I stayed away from that.

Any ideas I can get away with without getting any complaints?

put the flyer in the mailbox :P

Who cares! if you get away with it for a while it will all be worth it. I would just ask people if they play poker when giving them the pizza. If they say yes or I watch it on T.V., tell them your trying to raise money to go back to college and if they ever want to play online to please use your Bonus Code - Make the bonus code "PIZZA GUY"

If nothing else you'll probably get a few opportunities to sell the idea of playing online for real money to people.

Let me know if it works, we'll add a chapter in the book called Pizza Riches :lol: :lol:

Yeah, you're probably right Jeremy. I'll do it until I get caught. The worst thing that will happen is my manager will yell at me for a bit. I can use business cards or make a 4"x6" ad for Party Poker with Bonus Code. Can the bonus code be 2 words or can only be one? PizzaGuy or Pizza Guy?

I came across an advertising companyt that will basically make scratchers for you. They have a post card they call "Poker Face". It shows a gentleman holding up 5 cards. 3 of the cards have a corner that you scratch off. If you get a pair you win a small prize - 2 pair a prize - full house and you win grand prize. You can set each prize to what you want.

Needless to say - they win everytime.

Say 1 pair gets you free poker guide

2 pair = top hands of poker guide.

full house = free deck of cards


The one stipulation is in order to receive the prize they must first sign up a play money account with Party Poker using your bonus code.

They have different sizes of cards and they offer different styles. Believe me, these cards look very nice and scratchers as we all know are very inticing. I am not sure yet how to market this.

Does anybody have any ideas on marketing scratchers?

Here's the price structure for the 4.25" x 5.5" = postcard size

1,500 for $210

3,750 for $375

7,500 for $600

It's about 30% cheaper if you buy the 2.125" x 2.75"

They do custom design. Minimum buy for custom cards is 13,000 cards.

I bet Jeremy could come up with a monster marketing plan for these scratchers.

The company is called Impact USA - www.eimpactusa.com

Oh yeah, on the back of the card is where you can list the prizes. You can have them put anything you want on the back.

You can order a free sample pack.

Let me know what you guys think. Where can I go with this?

They even have scratchers with pizzas on it. You scratch one pizza off to see the prize. Perfect for my pizza delivering.

What cheap prizes can I offer?

How can I incorporate this idea for advertising Party Poker?
