    Default I need a marketing scheme.

    Alright, here's the situation:

    I'm a film maker, and I'm making a film that's based in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, a place I've never visited before. The reason why I chose to shoot a film about that place there in Cleveland, Ohio, is more of an inside joke and for budgetary reasons.

    What I want to do, and I'm asking for you, the Internet, for some help, is that I want to be able to reach out to the people of this city and let them know that I'm making a movie about their town. Already, I've emailed the mayor and posted the trailer on a Facebook group, both of which garnered no replies. But I'm determined.

    What would be a good way of letting people know? I was thinking of contacting their media, newspaper and news station. But I also want to create some sort of viral marketing technique, or something interesting to say the least, to grab people's attention over there that a film about their town has been made. I was contemplating mailing flyers to city hall and elsewhere, but that would cost too much time and money.

    Anyone got anything better to help me out?

    Here's the , by the way. Hope you enjoy it and get some sort of feel of what I'm going for.

    Commit suicide by jumping off of their Town Hall and landing on the Mayor. That's about the only way that you could ever hope to get attention for your pathetic little film.

    I'm going to highly recommend you reevaluate that statement:

    http://calpoly.edu/
    -Rated #1 in the nation for Engineering Undergrad programs whose highest degree is Bachelor's or Master's.

    It's well known that our Liberal Arts program is probably the weakest one we have.

    Probably.



    Because we all know that Facebook is the end-all-be-all of truth on the internet. I mean, if people took Facebook information as seriously as they did Facebook relationship status... well then..

    Tell them you are doing a documentary on Obama's campaign, and that he plans to visit there. You are sending a friendly inquiry to gather as much information as possible before Obama make's his stop.
