Marketing
A discussion about trying to recruit through the Cadet organizations produced
the revelation that their relative youth (13-18), with a likely lower
disposable income would probably stop most of them
from joining IPMS Canada. We therefore decided to find a more productive
use of our marketing budget, and maybe try reaching the Cadet organizations
through less-expensive means.
Robin will be approaching hobby shops to see if we can do a quid quo pro
deal where they carry our marketing material and we'll list them as IPMS
Canada supporters on the website.
