Here’s the logo were going to be using on a run of geocoins for the release of Joy Of Geocaching. Will distribute them and eventually attend and make them available as prizes for some lucky readers. If anyone’s got any clever ideas for how to get them in circulation, we are all ears!
The design was created for us by LogoInn, which features budget logo creation starting at just $68. It’s quite a bargain, and the service was very fast. Turnaround was about three business days and they’re happy to revise as needed until you’re happy. We highly recommend them!
I have a few ideas about getting these into circulation:
1. What about giving the GPS salesperson at a Bass Pro shop/a nature store/a camping store or a ranger at a state park – whatever place would apply, and have them give a coin to the next person that mentions geocaching. Might have to give the salesperson or ranger a coin for passing one along too, just for their trouble.
2. Hide geocoins in select JoG books – at book stores, libraries – where ever a copy is available.
3. Have a contest where geocaching groups come up with geocaching haikus, awarding the winners with geocoins. Really, any contest would do – I just thought mine sounded interesting and would keep you all laughing.
Hope these help!
I love these ideas! I’m skeptical that a retail store would cooperate, but you’ve got some very cool thoughts to build upon!
