I volunteered to paint faces for two hours at my daughter's elementary school carnival. I had the longest line of 14 events... and left 45 minutes after they closed the building as I didn't want to say no to any kid especially waiting in line for over an hour. My line went the full length of the gym bleachers. I only did small designs that were quick and looked nice...so I could fit more kids in, it was all free to the kids,... I thought if nothing else I could pass out biz cards... and today the gal at the school showed me the proof for out little town paper, we were front page... big photo. its the halloween day paper, soo excited never had exposure like that before! apparently it was a hit with the kids!!
I am a face paint addict now. I love this stuff!!

You can't buy great publicity like that, so consider the freebie gig a marketing investment! Very Happy
