OT: Most Profiting Endeavors
As a kid about to go into college, ergo spending his last summer having lots of fun, money can be quite a hassle. I have a 40 hour a week job, so that's helping, but when you go on lots of road trips you still need some extra change. An example would be our venture at the end of July to Elizabeth, New Jersey for Hellfest 2004. Four college kids, music festival, it's pricey.
That's when we brainstormed. Using brute honesty, we passed out 400 flyers for a bottle drive that proclaimed our situation (we were honest on everything), and set a collection date for yesterday. We were in awe to see we made 150 bucks in our first attempt. Many people wrote notes to us that said "have fun" or similiar messages. We took it a step further and set up a web page with a paypal account. Not an hour in, we were given a 15 dollar donation. the site is: www.supportthecause.tk No I am not here asking for donations. This site also has all the info regarding our trip, our progress, etc. I am posting this because I think this could make a damn fun dynasty, and I also want you guys to post about your best money making endeavors. So have at 'em. |

How bout you get in contact with the band, or the promoter or better yet MTV which seems to love helping guys like you out.

MTV wouldn't touch anything to do with Hellfest. 95 percent of the bands there wouldn't appeal to the masses.
We're just having fun doing this stuff. As someone who wants to get involved in marketing and business, this has been a blast thus far. |
