Think Outside the Box

OK, this is some of the craziest stuff you'll ever hear but listen closely... IT WORKS!!!

My friend works at an apartment complex, and every once in a while, pizza places will bring up 2 or 3 pizzas just to say "hey, we're here, tell people about us"....
SO, they bring these amazing pizzas, and then leave...

WELL... ONE DAY, he was up at the clubhouse (where he works), and the pizza guy from the pizza place comes up with 3 pizzas and breadstix....

SO...he said to the delivery guy:
"Hey bro, I'll throw you $10.00 if you hand these flyers out with your next few deliveries", and he said "HELL YEA!"...

SO, he printed off about 15 flyers (promoting his site), handed them to him, and he was on his way....

WELL, he usually does not get too many active US referrals each day... and he got 7!!!.... SO, he called up to the pizza place, asked to speak to the manager, and when he came on, told him that he'd pay him to have his delivery guys hand out flyers with the pizzas...

He said "don't pay me, pay them".... so he decided to go up there, gave all the delivery guys $5 a piece , (there was 4 of them), and gave them about 50 flyers to hand out....

Advertising is all around us, all we have to do sometimes stop and look around!
You just gotta think outside the box... and try new things!!
