I was trying to come up with some not too expensive ideas to promote the site here on Delmarva and this is one I thought might be kinda cute. Delmarvabikers.com helemt stickers! I see just about everyone wearing them on thier helmets, so why not whip up a batch and give them out for free at bars, resturants and so on? Cheep advertisement that hits a specific target audience. Pretty cool huh?
The first problem was finding a company to make them for me. There has to be at least 100 companies out there doing this, or at least according to Google, hehehe. Prices vary widely, but I was able to find one that seems pretty reasonable. Aside from that, finding a salesperson who speas english well enough to be understood was a bit of a challenge. Habib loves to sell stickers, that is for sure.
Next problem was design... These stickers usually are around 1" x 3.75", or pretty dam small from a graphic standpoint. That really neat logo I came up with for the site just wont fit, or at least in any size that can be read without a microscope... Colors were easy, doing anything other than black and white about doubles the cost, so you can bet I went with a nice easy to read white on black. Now for design... Ive come up with 4, but none of them are really "delmarvaish" enough. Anyways, take a look and yall gemme some feedback on what you think would look cool.
