Advertising: Poster Info + Everyone: Our Doodle Poll :)

Hey everybody! :) Sorry for the late correspondence--after spring break I had some issues to sort out with new classes. Now that my (and all of you guys') schedules are final (the last day for changes and 100% refund was Sunday) I created a Doodle poll for you all to fill out so we can see what times we all are and are not available, to help us decide times/dates for future meetings. I'm not sure if you guys are still wanting to do the Sunday, April 22nd meeting at 9am or not, but maybe this poll can help us decide to finalize it or move it to another time/day? I made the poll a 5 day/school days poll, but please ignore the dates set in there, as the poll is meant to give us all a general idea of each of our available times for any school day of the week, in ANY week of this term (ie. show when we have classes or other weekly, reoccurring time commitments. The link is below, and I also sent you all invites via the doodle poll website as well:

Also, Mai, I wanted to ask if those posters you sent out via email were the final designs you were planning to use? I've been researching and talked to SALP here at PSU, and found all the information we need for postering here on campus. The documents I posted below show all the locations we can put up posters at on campus (there are a LOT, so I think it would be efficient to have the entire adverstising team get together one of these days and split up the locations for each of us to go to). The only rule we have to abide by is that we CANNOT put up posters at the locations in bold in the document, as those are locations for student group posters only. I talked to SALP again to make sure, and the information I was given earlier was correct--our club, The OC at PSU, cannot technically be affiliated with the fundraiser, only involved in it, so we can't use student club resources (and in this case, student club only poster locations) to support it. :(

Lastly, before I read your post about making the tickets electronic and personalized, I went and talked to the PSU Box Office to see if we could possibly hold some tickets there so students can have quick and easy access to them, which would make them easier to sell. I was referred to the manager there who wasn't there at the time, and I was going to go again this week to talk to her, but I'm guessing that I don't need to anymore? Let me know what you think--do you think it would be a good idea to hold some tickets at the PSU Box Office? :)

How to Make Your Posters Stand Out

·   Use color- either colored paper or colored ink.

·   Print various sizes – for example, print an 11x17 and cut down the middle to yield two 5.5x17” posters or print small posters for boards outside classrooms.

·   Do something to add a third dimension to your posters.

·   Make it informative and visually appealing.

·   Place your poster on a table with a handful of other posters, step back 5 feet and decide which items grab your attention and why.

·   Be creative – just because you haven’t seen it done doesn’t mean it won’t work.

·   Enjoy what you’re doing – it will show in the final results.
