Couple of days ago, there was some talk about the MYM. Here's a few quotations from their web site (found in the New Yorker)
Take the Lead in Marketing Your Products & Services to the throng of Million Youth March Attendees!
Select a sponsorship opportunity and capitalize on your presence at the MARCH by increasing your visiblity and sales potential among the Hip-Hoponomics targeted audience.
THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX! Imagine the lion's share of your potential customers gathered in one place. Imagine a live marketing event to showcase your product to your targeted market. Imagine an opportunity for face-to-face on-site retail sales. Imagine those customers equating your product and your brand with their lifestyle interest... Imagine an avenue to increase your brand image or to increase "top of mind" awareness. Imagine a guaranteed R.O.I (return of investment). This is the type of live event excitement opportunity we deliver to you to increase your bottom line!
Don't Sleep On This Explosive Advertising Opportunity!
Good lord. Makes the "Promise Keepers + numerology" of the Million man March look a bit better in comparison, no?
