October 9, 2009 | Marketing StrategiesI wonder how effective this is. On the one hand, large signs draw alot of attention. But on the other hand, these people seem scary and unapproachable (especially with signs condemning non-believers to hell). Also, my bicycle is temporarily out-of-service which requires that I walk everywhere which means people try to stop me more. What am I supposed to do with flyers I have no interest in reading?
The Church of JC & LDS at UW has an interesting form of outreach. They walk around in suits, wearing badges, and sometimes talk to people. No signs, no shouting.
ReplyDeleteI had a conversation with one of them once. Then I happened to ride the same bus back, and we had another conversation on the bus. Then another person joined the conversation - it was weird.
