I would stick with just the T-Shirts, but again that would depend on our
targets.
Let's first define our demographic

t-shirts out (btw, to who - the fastest, strongest or the ones with the

I've just had a little gander around their website - and such a move would fit

owners to co-operate.
if the big ones dont wanna participate, there is a whole lot of unknown
brands distributed through the low cost wal-marts and aldis (european
version). its not even restricted to
So the main thing now is strategy. IMHO we would be better finding a big
supplier and in-effect outsourcing the box tokens to them. However, I'm sure
they'll want to know the benefit to them. I suppose if we say 1,000 gets you a

I wonder if we can partner with a hardware manufacturer. For example I
know tha Zonboo and Koolu are companies specializing in small green

The OOoCon is over and I inmediately put the presentation at the

Hi everybody, I'm very new here (mostly an 'art list
guy), but I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents worth 8^)
Wouldn't it be easier to track if people had to send
something in to get a free CD? Lke a coupon on snack
