Marketing is essential. The exhibition will be open to the entire public. Success lies in ensuring as many people come to the exhibition as possible

The following are the media I thought were necessary to use to market the exhibition:

1. TV (not only Alitrah, but others as well)
2. Newspapers (Press conference?)
3. Website
4. Email (Tabligh, Ask, WorldFed, AfricaFed)
5. Having a known personality as chief guest

How do we fund the media marketing?

Normally there it all depends.... some keep entrance fees and some dont... but majority dont keep entrance fees.... like makutano charge 5000 per person in DJ hall... so lets keep free this time and next time we can charge.... lets see how this one goes, we are charging for the forms only cant charge them twice ... lets not keep entrance fees this time..... i feel that way.... since it is our first time we need to experience stuff...

we will need a canter to transfer stands from art n frame to hall n from the hall to art n frame... anybody you know owns one tht can help us?

I don't think you should charge for this one. People will run away! And there are many means of advertising. Facebooking it, sending emails, and putting up posters at known locations, Mosque and Mehfil, Nima, and other locations that can draw outsider's attention aswell. Slipway too! And if schools are open, you can send them Invitations and posters.

I agree. Thats a very good way of letting people know.

Can someone from the team take up responsibility for coordinating the marketing? Zohra, are you up for it?
