An idea!

Postby Djoske » Thu Sep 02, 2010 3:56 am

I was thinking,why don't you guys make a commercial and air it on tv ? My kickboxing club did it (not sure about the cost,but if enough people chip in,it can't be that much) and when they aired the commercial our club had a lot of new members...Maybe make some battle shots,training shots,and tell them some phone number they can call and get more info (all with a cool speaking voice in the back saying something like : "And if you want to have fun,fight,share win and loss with your friends sign up today ! ") ???? what do you think bout that ?

You hit the nail on the head with cost. For any groups to get videos up in their home areas, it would take a lot of money. Some big realms would be able to do it because they have enough dues paying members that the cost wouldn't be as much of an issue, but most realms operate on a pretty tight budget. Hell, my home realm doesn't have enough in the coffers to get an ad up in a local paper for a week.

What a lot of people do aim for, though, is free publicity. That means volunteering for anything and everything where there will be high foot traffic and possibly news crews wandering about with cameras.

Hmmm than maybe,get some news crew to do a story about belegarth,here in Serbia they have some show where people say how they spend the summer(so someone is a lifeguard at a beach,someone takes dance classes,and someone plays warhammer action figures) and people vote for the best,but the thing is noone is in for the best,when you are on it,you get free publicity for your "summer thing" maybe if there is something like that at you,you could make it about belegarth ? or,someone in the whole belegarth must know a news reporter (or is a news reporter) and can get you the story ?

Djoske, Belegarth has been featured on news programs and cable TV on many occasions. :)

Very cool, Cib. I do think we should work on our web presence before attempting a TV ad campaign.

Why not make the commercial and put it on youtube? That would allow you to post it on your websites and people would see it through searches. You could add tag lines like "knights" or "battlefields" to help get it out there.

I agree. However, if anyone was so inclined I think the video that Spork posted would fit right in with other national television commercials. viewtopic.php?f=108&t=36074&p=470126#p470126
