Billboard designs for Operation St. Paul

We took in almost $800 yesterday. If this keeps up we will have no problem meeting our goal within 30 days, which is still 2 months out from the convention. Please pass the Chipin link through your Meetups and circle of supporters. Thanks!!
 
operation st. paul is a great idea
what's the general idea for putting the 30k to use?
-Billboards
-Tv ads?
-Newspaper ads?
-ads on benches, buses..?

I have the goal set at $25K right now. Plan is to buy up to 5 billboards, bus & taxicab ads. Also possibly TV. Right now I don't have any plans to do newspapers.

I would agree with focusing on the billboards, bus & taxis. I think we will get more effect for the money. Additionally, who wants to support these newspaper companies?
 
How about some John McCain quotes?

Also, what mode of transportation will the delegates be using for the most part?

The bus idea is really good, has anyone priced advertising on taxi cabs or in bus stops?

I'll be donating to this probably later today or tomorrow. Hope others do too.


Great Idea!

We need about $30,000 just for Saturating the BillBoards/Bus-Taxi ads don't we. Hopefully we'll have this by the End of the Month so we can get the billboards purchased EARLY! As Early as possible.

Before July. Apparently these boards are booked several months in Advance.

Then -- what's the Population of Minniapolis/St Paul? IT's smller then Philly isn't it? $8,000 should be more then enough to saturate the Cable Networks right in that City. We should also try to get ads on the Local Broadcast channels there too. So probably another $8,000 right?

Now we probably want to do this with each of the ads that we have. There was that bo Ad -- there were sevreal ads that Oporation New HAmpshire had put together.

If we want to do with with the High Tide Ad ($1,600) and each of the 30 sec spots Opporation New HAmpshire had (There were about 3 or 4 weren't there? We're probably looking at wanting about $60,000 for TV ads for the night of August 30th though Sept 4th.

How much are radio ads -- just for the Radio Stations in the City? We should try and do a run of each of the Campaign Radio ads (just change the Disclamer)
there were about 5 or 6 good radio ads. What, $6,000 you think?

We probably need a good $100,000 or so to really pull off what we're wanting to do.

It would be amazing to do all that but the money is not going to be there ($100K). I'm already working with billboard and the bus company. Everyone has space at 3 months out. I'm not too worried about it, we'll get some one way or another.

I know the whole "money bomb" thing is pretty played out by now. But I wonder if there would be support for an "Op St. Paul Moneybomb"? If we picked a date, how long would it take to disseminate it throughout the supporter community? We could hit our goal and then some, possibly in one day. Then we'd have the funds to book the ad space well in advance.

Who would be willing to help spread the date and/or set up a site similar to Nov. 5th/Tea Party where people can enter emails, etc? We could put The High Tide on there, samples of the billboards, etc.
 
Sounds like a good idea to me Adam. Money bombs, imo, are way more efficient and powerful than any other method of donation we have used thus far.
 
do you have a myspace/facebook yet? Play the rebel angle. Us against the GOP. Get some youtubes made. We can lite this fire. Just give me a few tools.

Donations seemed to have stopped :(

The flurry we got 2 days ago seems to be due to a homepage posting on Daily Paul. Anyone care to comment on the moneybomb possibility a couple posts up?
 
Does anyone like the idea of running (at least) 1 national commercial during the convention? the campaign never bought any national ads - and i am pretty sure that not one ran in my state. it would be cool for all of us RP supporters to see the same commercial at the same time (as well as the rest of the people watching the convention)
