Mahatma!

This weekend Hank and I are working a rice booth. It's so funny because every time I tell someone this they have the same reaction, "A what, a rice booth?" You know - Just to clarify. I can definitely understand the need to clarify because it is very random. I'm surprisingly excited about this event though because I always thought it would be fun to work a promo booth (and it pays great). They are everywhere for every product, and I love marketing (because it really works). When we were at a bar in Athens, GA, for example, the Ladies of Landshark Lager were there giving away free beer, temporary tatoos and taking pictures of you enjoying their brand. This is what we will be doing for Mahatma Rice at Wellness Weekend this weekend at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds. We have lots of free samples to give away, coupons and a fun jeopardy game for people to spin to win prizes.

All of this to say here is a section of our garage right now:


It is home to a lot of rice. I'm sure our neighbors were thinking what in the world when all of this was delivered to our front door!!

  2. Our friends found out about this opportunity on Craigslist! A marketing firm based out of California posted it. Our friends did this once before and loved it. The company called them again for this event, but they will be in D.C. so they passed it along to us. Hopefully we will be on their call list now as well! I will let you know how it goes!!
