Not a chance, I’m finally graduating this semester :) lol.

 

As far as places such as Gamestop, The Nexus, and even Best Buy approach them as if we’re customers. If they advertise for us tell them we’ll buy from them. I don’t know how much money the gaming club currently has in its’ possession but if we tell Gamestop, Best Buy, or The Nexus (maybe all 3?) that we’ll be buying $100 worth of Gift Cards, merchandise, or other things from each of them at least twice a semester then they are able to look at us as a profit rather than a loss, all they would have to do is generate traffic for us. If they generate traffic for us that means we are able to generate more interest to WCU and to future sponsors. The more people we can get to attend the events makes it more and more appealing to larger sponsors and especially to the school, which gives us even more leniency.

 

Advertising at the arcade(s) in Asheville is a decent idea but Asheville is about a 45 minute drive from WCU, and while it would be awesome, I don’t see it plausible that we could get some people to take at least 2 hours out of their week to travel to Asheville, find arcades, and then try to negotiate with them when they’re decently far away. That’s why I recommended Craigslist, no travel time or expense time and it will reach out to Asheville and possibly further.
