Whether you are a party promoter or just a denizen trying to make a few dollars, there are several tools available to you to start promoting your next event/party. Below are five tips on how to promote a party or event for little to no cost to you. Yes, you can practically promote your event for free!
1)Small handout flyers-A great way of telling people about your event is to create small flyers that you can handout to people at clubs, on campuses etc... You can easily create a flyer on your computer or you could find an affordable printing service online. This step idea may cost you a few dollars, but no more than $100 dollars for say 5,000 flyers.
2)Promote on the web-The internet is a event promotion tool that is sometimes overlooked. A site like Eventorb.com allows you to post your events and spread the word to everyone who comes on the site. Best of all, it's free to sign up for sites like Eventorb.com.
3)Word of mouth-Tell a friend about your party. If you are lucky, that friend will tell a friend and so on and so forth. Sooner or later, news of your event will travel through word of mouth.
4) Head to a college campus- A college campus is a great place to find event attendees. So take some of those flyers and head to a campus near you. While on the campus, look around: there are probably bulletin boards where you can post your event!
5)Send a text message-Send a text message or an email to five of your friends and ask them to send it to five of their friends. Yes, this may be somewhat of a "chain letter" but may prove to be a successful way of advertising your event. Make sure to have an interesting text message. A text message like "a party full of surprises" is sure to capture some attention. Be creative!
