Good advertising tips


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone. I'm looking to reopen my karate school when I'm done with the military.

What are some good advertising ideas besides the obvious: newspaper articals and flyers?

Perfect Practice makes Perfect.

Internet. Make a Facebook page. Get on Google Maps. Make a professional-looking webpage with lots of pictures and information. When most people are looking for a school, that's the very first place they're going to look.

Ah yes, already got the FB page. My old school is on google maps and other information things. I'll have to update those. Thanks!

You can do a free website from google that doesn't have tons of adverts all over the place.

Putting out leaflets can get a few in but be prepared for only a few per hundred leaflets.

Another good way is to grab a few members/mates and do a demo at a public place like a shopping centre, do something impressive, get a few people up to try and hand out info leaflets.

When you start get a couple of kids or females to turn up early and hang about outside in Gi's in full sight of people (if the club is in a busy area)

We've tried paper adverts before but not had much response.

A lot of people need help with their first step to get over any pre-conceptions. Get existing members to introduce a friend for free lessons if they stay.

Put up posters or cheap banners - try to get permission!

Always carry business cards with phone number, email and website on.
