2. Top Secret: To Sell a Carnival Coupon
Hey Aresian! You have just been enrolled into the noble cause of fueling the success of our funfair by selling carnival coupons! We need a united, and unanimous effort on everyone's part to make sure that our carnival is an undisputed, and undeniable success. Here are a few pointers in your quest to become the next Warren Buffet: (he/she will be used interchangeably for gender equality reasons, not as a subtle jab to anyone's sexual orientation :))
1. Explore all your social circles-- whether it is your beloved OG, your awesome CCA mates, your cool seniors or amiable friends from other schools, dont forget to extend your warm welcome to them and invite them to come down for a day of play!
2. Persuasion is key. Give your friend a reason to come down, and tell him whats in it for her to purchase a stack of coupons from you, apart from charity to the community, of course!
3. Customer is king. J2s will be having their blocks all the way till the Wednesday after the March break; so dont try to push any sales with them until then! Instead, market the coupons to them after they're done and over with blocks as a chance to go out and have fun, and you might get a more favorable response.
Also, all J1 Aresians will be having coupons to sell, so do explore greener pastures, bluer oceans and yellow-er meadows when pushing sales!
4. Dont over do it. While it is great to be zealous in your marketing ventures, dont strain meaningful friendships over a simple business transaction. Just as inviting your friend to the carnival is a sign of respect to him, it is important to respect her wishes should he not be keen on coming.
5. The power of you. You'll be needing coupons on the day itself anyway, but remember to leave some for your friends :)
6. Have fun while you're at it. Use this as a chance to catch up with friends, or even meet new people!
The funfair will be on 28/3 (Sat), at CCAB, from 9am to 2pm, and we will be raising funds for the Singapore Disabilities Sports Council in view of the upcoming London Paralympic Games 2012. Last, bear in mind that this is a FACULTY CIP, not a faculty outing! This funfair is not catering to Aresians-- it is run by Aresians for the school, for the community. So, make sure your friends from other faculties know that they wont be being extra if they come down; to the contrary, they are fully welcomed as essential patrons and supporters of our noble cause. So Aresians! Go forth proudly with your coupons in your hands and fire in your heart and together, we'll have everyone know that-
