We are “moooooooore than just websites!”
It’s trade show season and Ellipse is in full marketing mode! At trade shows in Texas and Florida our giveaways were a hot commodity and we wanted to make it an interactive experience for our prospects and clients. In order to get one of our great giveaways, a stuffed cow, you were required to give us a “Unique Internet Marketing Idea” and wear a big button that says “Ask me how I got my cow!” We actually got people to market our trade show booth for us. The response was unbelievable! The ideas that we received were really off the wall but in keeping with the spirit of the effort we gladly gave them cows! So, we are passing these Internet marketing ideas on to you so you can market your website in new and innovative ways.

The Most Creative Ideas

  • Deliver donuts to the local fitness centers with your web address on the box. That will get their attention and you will be driving them to your fitness center!
  • Place your website address on the back of your maintenance personnel’s uniforms.
  • Sponsor a local pee wee team with your website address on their uniforms.
  • Go to newspaper machines and for $.50 you can stamp all of the newspapers in the machine with your website address.
  • Give away dog collars at the local dog park with your website address painted on it.
  • Have your website address printed on the back of grocery store receipts.
  • Advertise your website address at the movie theaters.

We wanted to get people to think “outside of the box.” If we can get our clients to do the same then our clients will be successful and so will Ellipse! Our motto is “If you are successful, then Ellipse is successful!”

The Strangest Ideas

  • Advertise your website address on a rickshaw.
  • Have a parachute with your website address on it and jump out of a perfectly good airplane over an area with a high population.
  • Put a banner with your website address on an ice cream truck that sells ice cream on your competition’s property.
  • Temporary tattoos of your website address on your forehead.
  • Your website address mowed into the outfield of the local baseball team.
  • Make bars of soap with your website address on it.
  • Put your website address on a hot air balloon.
  • Write your website address in the dirt on the back of an 18 wheeler! Now that’s free nationwide advertising!
  • A property mascot waving a sign with your website address. This works for colleges and universities and it will work for you!
