    I have seen shameless spamming for such cases. It can be devastating if you do not do it correctly. Conversion is always based on quality of the product, if other things are right.



    Make sure you that you selling something very interesting

    You need to advertise on every single social media website, get the word out on all free classifieds like Craigslist and Backpage. Use Pay Per Click and email marketing.

    What's wrong with these people?

    This is at least the 2nd thread recently posted where the OP waits until the last minute to start trying to get people to their event.

    Successful event planners plan a year in advance. Go to any popular music group website and look at their tour dates. They plan for a year or more... they don't wait until the last minute.

    Strange.

    It's not even a rookie mistake, it's a lack of common sense.

      That's because they have to rent a venue, oftentimes a year in advance. Nowadays, any well-known ban or artist that is touring could probably announce their event 3 days in advance and sell-out.

      That's just common-sense. :-)

        That's a sad uneducated guess.

        If you flash money in front of someone, they'll let you rent a year in advance as long as someone else hasn't already reserved the same date.

        Try harder... or just try.

          My point, exactly. They book a year in advance to be assured of getting a date, even a year into the future.

          Thanks for confirming my observation, but actually, no help was required. No one is ever confused trying to ascertain the meaning of my post.

          Well, almost no one. lol

    You need to give more details about your campaigns to get proper feedback in the forum. Like how big is your list and how you have generated your list (to understand the quality of your list) and how influential is your social media presence?

      Again, the event has passed. Doubt you can offer much assistance. Best to read the entire thread. :-)

        You can't be serious. Reading is very hard and time-consuming.

        Best to just get your link posted and move on to the next thread title.

        And, to be fair, he didn't solicit any PMs in this post. So that's an improvement.

          And any time spent reading is totally wasted. I forgot that.

          Practice makes perfect and any good marketer would never pass up another opportunity.

          Yes, but to be fair, the thread hasn't been locked, yet - so anything is possible - going forward.
