Advertising - United Bimmer Community

**komodo** · 07-22-2005, 01:49 PM

So I looked into some other ways of advertising ub.c this morning and called a billboard company to see how much it'd cost to get ub.c over a highway.... $7,500 a month. That was shot down pretty fast, lol.

Anyone have any ideas?

tattoo on someone's forehead? or go around and slash bimmer tires and leave a notice like "You've been slashed by unitedbimmer.com! Come visit the site and find out what kind of tires to get now!"

Oh right, business cards are a good idea. Wasn't there some company online that'll print them for free as long as you pay shipping and they get to put their logo on the back....? I remember something like that.

business cards would be sweet. Personally i liked the banner you guys had at the UB southeast meetup. Maybe we could get another of those for UB meets and stuff. If you plan on holding nay in the NW ill probably drop by.

**B3M2W5i** · 07-22-2005, 02:27 PM

so no magnets?

Those are probably a bit more expensive I'd imagine.

Does anyone have any prices?

Careful about the business cards and such . . some municipalities require you to pay a litter tax if you distribute flyers and other things in public. All you need to ruin your day is a prickster city official.
