It’s Halloween Weekend: Have Fun & Market Your Business

Friday, October 27, 2006 at 12:48pm by David Askaripour in Life

You’ve been working hard these past few weeks and now it’s time to relax and have some fun. Make sure to get out of the office, the dorms, and the garages this weekend and enjoy this Halloween weekend as much as you can.

Of course we’re too old (I hope so) to be running around from door to door with pillowcases asking for treats, but we’re not too old to party and have a blast with our friends. If you’ve been working hard and doing everything in your power to grow your company, then you deserve it.

Personally, I plan on taking a road trip to Pennsylvania tonight to visit the Eastern State Penitentiary and based upon the testimonials, I think we’re in for a treat. If you live in the area, you should come by.

Just about anywhere you’re located, there are going to be Halloween festivities happening this weekend. Take advantage of all the college dorm parties and local bars/clubs that are having bashes.

Who knows, if you’re creative enough, you can figure out cool ways to promote your business from all the Halloween happenings. Here are some ideas:

  1. Host a Halloween party and give the winner of the best costume a free month of your service.
  2. Create flyers for your party to pass around campus and make sure to write “Sponsored by XYZ” in bold font on your flyers. This will help promote your company.
  3. Make sure to add the URL of your company on the flyer. It may even be cool to dedicate a page – www.xyz.com/halloween — on your website just for the Halloween party; with directions, contest, etc…
  4. Give away free items at the party with your company logo on them. You can use Branders to make this happen.
  5. Wouldn’t it be cool of you could get coasters and napkins with your company URL on them…Give that a shot.

Most importantly, make sure to be safe and drink responsibly this weekend. I know how wild us college / recent grads can get around this time of the year. Have fun and have a great weekend!
