Attention Community - Please Help with the "10,000 Flyers" Marketing Campaign - EVERYONE CAN PARTICIPATE!

in #recruitment7 years ago (edited)

Everyone Please Help!

The goal of the "10,000 Flyers" marketing campaign is to get 10,000 flyers printed out and hung up by the community before the end of July. We need everyone's help!

How it Works

We ran a contest to collect a bunch of flyer designs that people in the community could print out and hang up in their local areas - coffee shops, book stores, college campuses, etc. The flyers are done, and the winners are chosen (details below). Now, it is up to the community to print out their favorite ones and hang them up in their local area!

The Goal - 10,000 Flyers by the end of July!

This seems like a lot, but if enough people from the community chip in and do a small part - we can do it. My suggestion is for each person to hang up 5-10 flyers in their local area. Less is fine, and more is better! We can do this =)

Instructions

  1. Browse the designs below and chose your favorite one(s).
  2. Reply in the comments with the number of flyers you will be hanging up.
    Optional - include where you are from / where you will be hanging them up (book store, coffee shop, etc.)
  3. Copy/paste the image(s) into a Word document, or something that lets you print them on a full sheet of paper.
    (Adjust the size so they fill up the page.)
  4. Print off copies.
  5. Go to areas where potential Steemains may be hanging out, and hang up the flyers.
  6. Report back once you have hung up the flyers.
  7. Repeat.
    Just kidding, although you are welcome to do more =)

Some Tips

  • You can print them in color or black and white - whichever you prefer.
  • Use high reflectivity paper if possible.
  • Most browsers let you "copy" the image from the post by right clicking on it.
  • You don't have to print a whole page - you can make smaller flyers too.
  • If you don't have a printer, you can bring them in to your local print shop (Kinkos, etc.); Usually color prints are less than $1, and B&W are around 10 cents.
  • Spread the word and try to get as many people as you can to help.

Contest Winners

Holy cow, we have a talented community of artists! Thank you everyone for submitting your entries for the 10,000 Flyers Marketing Campaign contest! The winners have been chosen :)

Note - you can print off any of the flyers below.

Hi, Nice initiative
I will do my bit, will be sharing among the college near by our place, I believe that's the best audience we can target reaching out to. Will be printing 60 copies of the design as below. Well i believe I would make it more exciting by asking everyone to take pic of it and share it on their whats app groups.
)

Very good! Let me know when you have them hung up, and I will count them towards the total.

Surely will do :)

@timcliff: the flyers were distributed among the students. 60 on the whole as said before.
The word of mouth was more productive as it went out well among more students and even the lecturers showed interest. Be assured you will see more students and teachers signing up on steemit, more from our place: Hyderabad, India.

nice one

oups sorry... I vote for my self...I just learn how to "upvote" , anyone know how to take it back?...

I'd like to know too xD

This is a good idea every one should do this locally

Love this, I may borrow this (with proper credits ofcourse) later from you for one of my upcoming posts! keep it up!

I hope our votes help fund your supplies and effort :)

I totally agree!

this is a good idea... I might change the sizing on one of these and turn it into a handbill..... on a typical night, a flapper hands out like 200 per hour on the strip... and they work dirt cheap.

Awesome! Haven't heard for you in a while - glad to see you are still around. Let me know how many you hand out, and I'll count them towards the goal :)

Great idea. I hope you can hire a good promoter.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

hello timclif, these are really nice designs and will be getting about 1000 posters printed. We are already working on a campaign tagged #Project20millionNaija and I will be handing them out in Port Harcourt Nigeria. @adamm, @vipete, @tishyaoedit & @alphacore will be decided upon.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Here in Croatia some people don't understand English, will help with English 1 but is it possible to do text in Croatian also?

That way probably more people will understand and ask for help someone else.

Talk to @eirik in the comments. He is doing translations for his image.

Wow lots of amazing designs! And this is an awesome idea. Vistaprint have nice prices , I will be handing out in Boston,MA around 500 to start. Now sure which design I will be using just yet.

500 - wow, that is awesome! Let me know when they are up so I can count them :)

Damn u read my mind my man

Come to the Boston meetup then! Tuesday August first at 6:30 at Knight Moves in Brookline.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Going to print and post it at some places of my work. =)

Will try to print tomorrow, but I liked this one (enhanced it a bit with my own wording):

Great - let me know how many you end up hanging up :)

I have set 3 at my work. I know it's not much but I don't wanna spam it. Plus I have set those on key points everyone is used to check for news daily, and I am keeping some spare in case I find some other places to set them. I have also decided not to include my user on it, but I have taken a picture of myself as proof and posted it. I am curious how many will be able to find me. Nice stuff Tim!

Great work!

I have used a new technique, but I confess my words might not have been the best ones. Anyway, I figured that people could actually take the flyers with them, and decided to hang them so anyone can take one away if they want to. So, if that count's, I have hanged extra 5! =)

meep

AH!!! you replied to me! Does that mean you are not a Robot Meep?
Anyway, I am still waiting for your answers on the interview with you, post. Feel free to meep those up. =)

Did you hang any flyers @ionlysaymeep? How many?

It's sad that I'm just seeing this right now! But its not late... I'll make copies of those many images and paste on to notice boards of each departments 🏬 in my school Federal University of Technology Akure (FUTA) Ondo State, here in Nigeria 🇳🇬, I'll distribute among students, post it at the students sports complex. I'll repeat all of these when i get back to my hometown Ibadan state capital of Oyo State where my home 🏡 is just a half kilometer to The Polytechnic Ibadan and The University 🎓 of Ibadan, i have friends in those two colleges! I just cant wait to be back home 🏡 ! I've already made steemit printed shirts so i wont just be talking about steemit but anyone seeing me will simultaneously be seeing steemit!

Awesome!!

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Hi all, i am based in Cape Town, South Africa and i just happen to own a printing company that specialises in business cards and flyers. I am mooooooore than happy to print and distribute steemit flyers on an ongoing basis... but... i am also a designer, and without sounding conceited, would rather design my own as i know i can produce something far better than all three winners... (sorry, no offence to those entrants) ... you can let me know if this offer would still be valid and/or required...

👌😙👍😎🤘

Yes, that would be awesome! No need to, but if you want to share your designs here, I'd be happy to add them so that others can use them too.

Yes please, Jaynie! I would love to see more options that are more fit for the professional world.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Also , if some one wants to make a large order for prints , i might help paying for it

Cool - upvoted for visibility :)

SO I am going to print out 1,000! and place them in every starbucks! And the only Bitcoin ATM in our county! Which is pretty Huge but only one ATM and its in my City, go figure!

Bitcoin ATMs - that is a great idea!! Let me know once you have hung them up and where, so I can count them towards the goal :)

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Hey tim i have only got around to 175 flyers. Will push harder

That's great!! If you hang up any more, just let me know :)

I picked @malicered one and printed 56 on cardboard. I'll distribute them in the next weeks in the north of Italy.

guerrilla marketing! I love it. great low cost solution. i'll print a few and bring to my college.

please proof that you did it with a pic or 2

Just are report back is fine. I think we can go off the honor system here.

But if you are sending money around for that it would be good because I always showed what I did and it's easy, a quick pic. You are the captain though. It would be a perfect topic to post about and make income storcogato but please post a pic. Not because you have to, but because it's nice.

People are not getting paid to hang up the flyers. The money that was paid out was to the artists that designed the flyers. Everyone who is hanging up flyers is doing so on a volunteer basis, and will likely end up spending a small amount of money themselves to print the flyers.

I am excited to see how many people will do it. i feel that it's not gonna be very successful but hope for the opposite. I think it would be good to pay people money. In my flyer posts I show how much I paid, how many I made and how many hours I worked (I was explaining the stuff f2f which is much more work than hanging up). With your popularity you could do it or not? Say that the people should do it like my example and let them make a pic of every hung up flyer. Then pay 1 SBD (example) per hung up flier and boom we can conquer the whole world in a storm!?!

I thought a lot about it and decided not to do that. It opens the door for people saying they did stuff when they didn't. I'd rather just stick with people doing it because it helps the community. We all win + earn when the community grows and price of STEEM goes up.

Awesome! Pics aren't required - but let us know how many you end up hanging up so we can keep track towards the goal :)

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Printed out 30 of #2. Will be hanging today or tomorrow around a local university campus here in Bratislava.

Hello, found your post ! I will be placing about 50 of these in local business and at work! A great idea!

Very cool!

Placed 100 hundred up , hope to get more made

Awesome!!

This was one of the first things I wanted to do when I got on steemit and immediately loved it. I'm glad this is going out, I'm going to contact some of the places near me (large university/center of the city I live in at popular cafes) and see if I can post some around!

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Now thats a great post for you. Im in jamaica and im in the private sector and ill definately print 10-20 plus I've already told close to 30 people about steemit already. This is indeed the future of socail media. It is indeed a great idea for building posters. Anything to make steemit on the demand

Wonderful!

Say around 5. However what i found effective is printing them small and giving them out. I also create a facebook group called steem cryptorians: https://www.facebook.com/groups/125037798105189/

Well I am very late to this party! but I hired people to post 200 flyers :P
https://steemit.com/steemit/@cryptohustlin/steemit-advertising-campaign-part-33

Sweet! It's never too late to hang up more flyers :)

nice initiative I did 100 flyers today

That's awesome! I think you are the first to get some up :) Can you share some details on where you hung them up? What part of the world are you in?

I am from India . I hung up some flyers near the cyber cafes near me I still have like 20 left

Great job!

@timcliff thanks a lot for the marketing contest, great turnout so far.
I should mention to anyone deciding for using their own printer at home to keep an eye on how many sheets you make with solid colors, a full size sheet on my flyer can drain your ink a lot so make it count and put it somewhere with a lot of people :)

for spamming out tons of them, shoot for some of the good white background versions, or use a bulk printing service.

Thanks to anyone that prints any of the flyers, you're helping us all in the process so be sure to post about it when you're done.

steem on ^_^

OMG! This is great! I was just thinking that posters and flyers need to be around, I blogged about this just a few minutes earlier. https://steemit.com/steemit/@abso/steemit-flyers-time-to-plaster-my-home-town

Great! Let me know how many you hang up in your area so I can count them.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

I wish I can contributed more on steemit to this plan. :)

Can you print out a few flyers and hang them up in your area?

I will @timcliff. As soon as posible. What flyers ? one of them or what ? Please give some advise

There are a bunch of image files in the post. The idea is to pick one that you like, print it on a piece of paper, and hang it up in your area for people to see. Somewhere like a coffee shop or book store, where they let people hang up flyers.

Thank you @timcliff
This what I want to hear from you :D

Thanks for sharing on such excellent marketing campiagn.It is really a good idea to promote the steemit to the world. I will support this campaign since it is really meaningful event to make steemit stronger and stronger.I hope that there are many events like this and more and more people can use steemit.

This one I like most:

Hi @timcliff 😀 I'm from Philippines working in Cebu City. I am going home to Leyte this weekend to check my family after the 6.5 intensity earthquake happened last July 6, 2017. No power supply yet. I think it will takes month for power supply restoration.
I will give hope to my family, relatives, friends and other people by sharing about Steemit. I will do the

Steemit Education

to the kids, students and hopefully teachers. We have schools in our village. Gonna post some flyers! I already have 10 copies each of this format

I believe it will help to have future Steemians from our town! 😀

Great! Sorry to hear about the earthquake. I hope everyone is ok.

Thankfully they are alright. But still they are experiencing aftershocks.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Hi @timcliff 😀 I am proud to say that I printed 40 flyers only, that's only the budget I can afford. I hung up 8 flyers only and give 20 flyers. Unfortunately, some were damaged because I washed my bag without checking some flyers inside. But, I continued sharing Steemit with friends and on facebook. 😀 Hope I contributed to the project even just a little. 😀 Thank you so much. 😀 Have a great day! 😀

my posters/flyers are already set up on the streets of #Budapest:

#steem-promo #recruitment #marketing #advertising

Great job!! How many have you hung up?

I was able to print only 12 in low quality, and choosing some great spots for them. now i have some money i can print better ones, but i prefer to make some stickers, because in this city posters have no long lives.. this i why i started the campaign: https://steemit.com/steem-promo/@eaposztrof/10-000-flyers-marketing-campaign-steem-promo

I'm in Tim, I will print some off and post them on the mail boards and doctors offices.
Good job on getting the word of Steemit out there my friend.

Loading...

Well, you said to comment if you're planning on participating.
I'll print one of all the ones I liked (most of them) and make some copies. I'll be in a college town tomorrow, so I'll spend some of my time posting whichever ones I think are most applicable.

I've mostly been working in people's houses lately, so not too many. 5 around West Chester, PA. And I handed one to an interested cashier in Kennett square, Pa just today.

Ok, cool :)

Well, it only took me 2 months! hahaha. But as promised, now that I am back home and had my meetup it is done :-)
https://steemit.com/steemit/@scaredycatguide/finally-accomplished-timcliff-s-steemit-flyer-campaign

Nice! Upvoted :)

Hello friends!

Resteem your idea @timcliff! i like it so much!!!

I am ready & want to help popularize Steemit in Ukraine.

I can place several flyers near the central shop of my district
We also practice advertising in public transport, there are special places for leaflets in buses of the city!
I'm going to post a post later and show everyone my photos of hung up leaflets!
I liked this @pfunk design

Great!

I adapted(translated) flyer to my native language! That's what happened )))

Soon I'll show you where I posted them!

Great job! Report back to let me know how many you hang up :)

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Hi @timcliff
At the moment I have posted about 10 flyers and plan to do it regularly!
I develop the Ukrainian Steemit community https://steemit.com/@ukrainian.trail
And in our immediate plans, the platform is populated on the territory of Ukraine!

Awesome, thanks!

This is only the beginning! The purpose of our community is to attract new members to Steemit whith Ukraine. To support them on this platform ... To help grow new members as authors and bloggers. In every way to promote the promotion of our #UA tag ...
Of course, the successful operation of the community implies advertising of all kinds, in what we are interested ...
We will publish periodic reports on our activities in this way.
Our first community statistic
Thank for your "10,000 Flyers" Marketing Campaign!

ughhhh huhhhhh hu, you said hung.

I'm looking at all these flyers like....wow...Very impressed. I wish I would have contributed. Definitely will keep watch next time.

Will you be printing any off to hang up?

Actually, yeah wouldn't mind at all. I think today I might head into Atlanta to take some pictures so I may go ahead and do that. You guys aren't asking a lot .

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

This is a great idea to spread the concept of this amazing service(Steemit) and it's worth. It'll act as an invitation to the people who are unaware of this and to those who don't contribute in their full capability. I'll try to pin these charts in my university's notice boards! 👍🏼 Upvoted and Resteemed!

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

I printed these three posters and pinned these charts on my university's notice boards. People noticed it, found it very interesting and reacted to adapt it.Although I faced a lot of questions which took hours of mine, but I happily explained each and every perspective of Steemit!


I'll send you pictures in 2,3 days!

This is awesome.
Could someone design a sticker sized format? Approximately 1x4 inches. Im not sure about other places but where I am in the UK, people seem to like to feel they've discovered something, rather than shown it.I also feel no one I know would read any kind of notice board. Just a very basic sticker with the logo and something along the lines of "steemit, get paid to Facebook!". You could stick them to hand-driers in cinemas, restaurant, bars, pubs and clubs (anyone who doesn't wash their hands, you don't want on Steemit anyway). Most of these type places have paid advertisement boards so you can't just put you own A4 flyer up. This could give a good second option. Would make a good bumper sticker too.
Just a thought.
I'll print off 5-10 and ask a few people if they can put them on notice boards in the local supermarket and office tea rooms.

That's a great suggestion. At this point the content part for the designers to create all the flyers is done, but anyone in the community is welcome to do it. Some of the existing designs may be able to be printed smaller too. Thanks for helping!

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Darn, I missed the contest but I will surely design another poster for some more diversification. Gonna try and print some of those as well to ultimately get some Belgians on board as well!

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

I was able to print 5 and hung them up in a youth house and a small bar in town.

I'm good for 1-5, plus as many more as this comment earns in print fees

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Hi @timcliff
I'm trying my best to tell everyone in my contacts about steemit... But some of them put a question in front of that what if 100%of people will start to use steemit?
I just wrote post on this topic hope you will enjoy it and just support my idea.

https://steemit.com/steemit/@gulshannsaini/what-if-100-people-will-use-steemit-help-me-to-get-answer-of-it

And I tried to draw it's logo with a tag hope you enjoy it.. because I want to tell everyone about steemit.

IMG_20170714_093805.jpg

Very cool! I'll check out your post.

I can post 1000 flyers every week in various places I visit but the problem is that I don't have a printer and thus I only promote it on social media and wherever I go I tell people to join this platform... Even my nephew @littleangle is a part of this community and many more :) I don't know how to help with flyers as I don't have much earnings to spend on advertising the community. I am from India and I appreciate your efforts and contribution :)

Great idea. I think along with generating forums locally would bring tremendous benefit to this community. I am very new to the platform but I have seen a couple of projects that are very interesting. The potential is there. ARE WE PART OF THE CHANGE OR NOT?

I think everyone here at this point can be considered an early adopter :) Some are earlier than others, but compared to where I hope we will be here in a year or two - we are just getting started :)

The design are very professional!

This is awesome and I will for sure hang some up! One thing - we need local language flyers and I know @oendertuerk did some design work on this in various languages already, at least German, Turkish and English - hoe he sees that and can add designs.

Awesome initiative, I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner! Great work everyone!

Pure genius,what an amazing idea.some serious good flyers there already.

Thanks for the STEEM, Tim!

Welcome - thanks for the designs!

Great idea and great execution by everyone involved. I know quite a few public bulletin boards that I used to do marketing with so I am going to go post them there. I like @eirik 's design the best so I will be use that one!

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Hi @timcliff

I have hung up 36 flyers at 6 locations at public bulletin boards so far.

Great!

I am all in on this one guys... big ups will be pushing

I am moved by this concept and i am gonna start it from my college and will raise public awareness about it.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Can you please let me know how many you hung up so I can count them towards the goal :)

Not sure how I missed this post yesterday. Anyways, if you need a place to make you some fliers check these guys out. I am sure they are not the cheapest place to get fliers made, but I have been using them for my fliers for the last 7-8 years.
http://scfgraphics.com
They are easy to work with, and they have some great designs. They focus on church fliers mostly, but they do a great job. They have a quick turn around time as well. (3 days) most of the time.

Hi - I'm just checking in to see how much progress we have made on the 10,000 flyers campaign. Did you hang up any flyers? If you have, please let me know how many so I can count them towards the goal :)

amazing! i shall participate!
