Suggestion - Flyers

Skodaboy1983 · 14-12-2007, 08:30

Hi

In the other owners club I'm involved in we have flyers which we can print off, just wondered if Briskoda would be intrested in having someone design a flyer so we can stick a few in the car so that we can flyer and advertise the club to anyone who owns a skoda.

What do people think?

Freedom members get personalised calling cards.

A flyer has been discussed many times but as yet nothing has been 'adopted'.

Think I will be joining Freedom in the new year, I am really starting to benefit from the club now.

Thanks Stu for letting me know.

We did have a flyer, was a very rough thing done for Freedom to explain Freedom oddly enough.

Since then a few have been suggested and I've said before that anything sent will be used where appropriate. I'm not a photoshop / adobe writer user.

This site has grown without the need for slaying too many forests.

A few sites do indeed use flyers / calling letters, I introduced the concept of business card sized *calling cards* a few years back. But actually failed to get anything into mass production. A few members took that on board to produce personalised ones. To be honest these achieve all that a flyer could, namely pass on the url and the member who introduced you.

It is however an item that came up last week and will be discussed again; no doubt over a meal in the next few weeks, unless I get a kick under the table from my mother and wife

Lets see what comes in the new year, but efforts sent via email to webmaster @ briskoda are looked at and actioned.

Lets try a more target orientated aim from Father !

Please forward any ideas to me as well as Colin.

Thanks

Some one was giving out Briskoda flyers in the Briskoda compound at TRAX 2007, i still have one in my car. They must've been produced by someone on here!

If you can send me a copy of your flyer I would appreciate it.

Thanks

ive sent phone contacts to ther skoda drivers (well i beleive they were skoda drivers) in traffice jams with the name field as "briskoda.net skoda site" or just "briskoda.net" dont know if any of them joined up, but i expect they have either looked or are lurkers. Certainly saves on the rain forest

This is all in hand and will be rolled out in new year.

The Audi A2 owners club have these (business card type flyers). They are useful to stick under the wipers or give to people who might be interested.

I would be happy to keep a few in the car to give out.

Can I just remind people that the wipers on the Octy II can easily hit the bonnet if lifted when not in their vertical "maintenenance" position.

Can we stick with business cards that can be handed out personally rather than something that is designed to go under wipe blades.

Damaging soneone's bonnet is not a good way to attract them to the site!
