Post subject: | Marketing Campaign 1776 to DAR Women |
I have distributed emails to all 50 state societies of the "Sons of the American Revolution" providing them with links to the Campaign 1776 game, and a link to this club as well. There is also a Florida State Society board meeting where a friend of mine will be "pitching" the wargame as well. But frankly, I'm a little pessemistic that there will be much response from this old fellers. Which is a shame, because there are 20,000 "old fellers" of the SAR all around the country. Naturally, not all of them have computers, let alone an interest in electronic wargaming. But eventually, the time will come. But there is another avenue that I will be pursuing right after Halloween! While there are 20,000 SAR members (all male membership), there are 200,000 DAR members (all female membership). I can assure you, there will be few of them interested in the game. But Christmas is-a-coming, gentlemen! And these 200,000 women have at least 200,000 MALE relatives as well! And there is the distinct possibility that these 200,000 will be wondering just WHAT to give their sons, fathers, brothers and husbands that will help advance the "Revolutionary Cause"! So, in the first week of November, I will be writing them as a Past President of a chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution. I only have a few email addresses per state, but I think it may snowball a bit (I hope anyway). If we only get 1% of the DAR membership to buy a copy as a gift, that would be 2000 new games out there. And if only HALF of them get opened and tried, that would be 1000 users. And if HALF of those find there way to this site... well that would be practically amazing, yes? I don't want to get my hopes up... but we have to start somewhere.... and we have to start some time. The next 30 days will be the start! Regards, George Brooks Tampa, FL H: 813-935-8320 W: 813-854-7404 P.S. Does anyone know someone at the game company willing to include a flyer about this club? It would help customer response to know there is at least one "support group" out there! |
