Free notebooks to college students by Adued
September 24, 2008
From time to time we get press releases… and sometimes we just get an e-mail… this firm is offering to hand out 20,000 notebooks free of charge to college students for advertising sponsors in the footer.
Instead of us writing up a whole article, we felt that the E-mail sent to us tells the whole story better.
A recent graduate starts a venture company, Adued LLC, that distributes free paper notebooks to college students. The notebooks are called Eco-Notes. Advertising space at the bottom of each page covers the costs associated with manufacturing and distribution of the notebooks.
Eco-Notes are trendy, free, and environmentally friendly. They are made using recycled paper and soybean-based ink. The aim is to send and sustain a positive message within the academic community about being eco-friendly through items of daily use.
Adued plans to distribute 20,000 Eco-Notes in late January of 2009, to 15 schools in 10 states, including Harvard, MIT and ColumbiaUniversity. They will be handed out at school entrances.
Notebooks are one of most basic necessities for students. The students will see the ads over and over. This advertising concept is unique and would draw the attention of tens of thousands of students. The ad’s message will also spread by word of mouth because students want to share something new and interesting with their peers.
Adued is very proud of providing this service. It will benefit students by reducing their educational expenses while enabling them to participate towards the environmental cause. If they receive recruiting ads, that will help their future careers too.
As the service is of general interest to the public, it would be great if your media can let people know. Further information can be obtained at the company web-site, www.eco-adued.com
