I've been racking my brain trying to come up with an inlay idea so I'd have an excuse to participate in the 1/4" group buy, but nothing has really excited me.
Until now! I was checking out the new changes at
www.pokerchipsonline.com and noticed the advertising chips when it hit me- an advertising chip!
Hey, it may not be my best idea, but it's my latest; so bare with me...
The good:
1) it's advertising! (duh)
2) because I'll be giving many away, I'll need to order more (bingo)
3) hopefully, it'll be cute/clever/unique (that's where you come in hopefully- cause I lack cuteness, cleverness, and uniqueity)
So ideas to make this good and not lame will be appreciated. If it's bound for lameness no matter what, voice that opinion too! (though as nicely as possible)
The brainstorm:
I give golf lessons. I was thinking about something like a pic of a broken club or something, or maybe the whole inlay looks like a golf ball (complete with dimples as a watermark) and the $5 chip will = $5 off a golf lesson.
Most all of the players in my home game also golf, and I'm visualizing them with a couple of these chips, and when they play with other buddies (that have just slapped one in the water or 3putted or something) they can flip them a chip and say," you should give this guy a call". lol
and also giving a chip or two to customers to either: a) use on there next lesson, or b) give to someone else to use.
The problems:
1) the wording. it's hard to get cute and clever in a few words (with cheesy omitted)
2) what the heck do I do with the $1 chip? I'm thinking of having a $20 instead of $25, so I can work that in somehow, but the $1 and the $100 chip are puzzling me.
Well that's about it at this point. All advise appreciated.
