  Hi, I am starting a new computer course targetting at primary/secondary school students. Any marketing ideas? I thought some which may backfire or waste money, like flyers or advertise on newspaper. Don’t say TV, because I don’t have the budget. My marketing budget is below $500 so be creative. I am targetting to hit 40 students in a month. Course fee is $350 for 4 sessions and a free netbook will be given to every student. But it's how to reach the potential customer, that's the problem. Please help. Thanks.

  Email advertisement spamming. 

  You will need to think about how to obtain so many local emails though.

  $350 for 4  1/.2 hour sessions? No wonder.

  Now is December. :) There are many (in fact more than 30,000+) teenages who graduated from Secondary school waiting for Poly/JC. Try Job and Employment Forum.

  You may want to pay them on a commission basis.

   

  p.s. I went to Nex yesterday and saw many teenagers distributing flyers. I mean.. those are waiting for Poly/JC teens. lOL! There are so many! and I can't help to take a double look... inexperience....

  Thanks... but I won't do spamming lah, not good leh... I hate receiving spams myself. $350 for 4 sessions of 2 hours each. Yes, thought of hiring people to give out flyers but my partner thinks it's not going to work. I mean you take flyers usually you just help move them from the guy giving out to the rubbish bin taking in only.
