of the AXtion AD Rax (NAM original) College Marketing Program

1.
The On-Campus Coolness Fact-or
AXtion College Postcards
are artsy, funky, sexy & cool. And that’s not just our opinion;
ask anyone who collects or sends these free cards to friends, family
members, colleagues!
2.
The System is Designed as a Take-One, Not a Give-Away
Students, faculty,
administration and staff take only the particular AXtion College Postcards,
which appeal to them. Each AXtion Card is selected on a voluntary
basis and with enthusiasm. Students identify strongly with their
AXtion College Postcards, i.e. YOUR ADVERTISEMENT;
WHY? Because they chose them!
3.
Substantial Results
The take-one
rate of your AXtion Card college marketing campaign can be measured
by counting the number of cards available in our AXtion AD
RAX Displays at the end of each month. This data can be used
to compare the relative attractiveness of your offer/advertisement
to other ongoing marketing campaigns you may have.
4.
Baseball Cards/Stamps/Comics/-AXtion College Postcards = Collectible Items!
STARTING TO
SEE THE BIG PICTURE?
AXtion College Postcards
lend a collectible advantage to your ad campaign. Many people enjoy
magazines, bus-shelter, billboard ads and TV commercials, which
are difficult to collect unlike FREE AXtion College Postcards which are tangible.
5.
Word Of Mouth
When someone
mails an AXtion Card to a friend, family member or colleague, they
are exposing a secondary/multiple audiences to your advertising
message. This increases the overall reach of your marketing campaign
and allocates more bang for your advertising dollar.

6.
The Endorsement x 2 x 3 x 4
AXtion College Postcards
can be found on 531 campuses with total enrollment exceeding 5,500,000
college students. This is a strong endorsement, of AXtion College Postcards
in general and your specific AXtion Card advertisement in particular.
7.
Qualified Audience
The ad medium
is simple. If a student isn’t interested in a particular product,
they most likely won’t take that AXtion Card. Thus, Each and Every
AXtion Card ends up in the hands of students who are genuinely interested
in the message, brand, product or service being advertised.
8.
Advertisements? On The Contrary We Say!!
Students enjoy
AXtion College Postcards because they’re unobtrusive, subtle, and different,
artsy and most importantly FREE. What a great way to create a brand
awareness in young adults!
