The first UnHairShow was this past Monday. I am recapping elements of it as we move ahead.
Attendance was good and could have been better. We would love to see more local barbers attending. We would love to see female cosmetology professionals there, too. We are welcoming to non-licensed clipper cutting enthusiasts as well. We chose a school location for our first event because we knew with the students there we would be guaranteed at least a small crowd. this is what we got... just a few non-students were there. An O.K. start to the idea... and we will raise the level of outside participation every time we do the UnHairShow.
we have a few ideas to improve attendance. 1 is to do a postcard. 1 side to promote attendance... the other to promote the opportunity to present. we would pass these out to shops and salons in the general area of the event. if we host at a school we would also give the post cards to students and ask them to pass them to to shops and salons near their homes. the idea is to keep promotion simple and FREE... or as close to FREE as we can make it... in keeping with the FREE concept of the UnHairShow.
We used facebook and twitter for this past event. We will also use a YouTube video to get the word out as well.
We are open to ideas... please share them... get to me with comments here on the blog or with an email to me at expert@andisco.com
