so many options....contests....drink specials...invite speed dating groups to use your facility (paying you of course), promote with purpose, try to arrange advertising with local bars (that don't have pool tables, so you wouldn't be in competition with them), advertise on roads (billboards). What area do you live in? Industrial, with a lot of people working in factories who get off the job and go have beers?  Put billboard signs up on highways leading from the industrial areas to the housing areas.  Talk to marketing and advertising companies, they know all this stuff.  Figure out what demographic is most likely to patron your establishment and advertise to THEM.

Ask some of your local businesses, that what most people do. Here a girl's softball team approached mine and another man's business and we contributed for Uniforms and some equipment. I even went to most of their Games and brought them Snacks and Drinks. It was fun and there many out there that will do this, IF, the team will go around and Ask and Inform the potential Sponsor(s)\nDo not underestimate the small businesses too, Heck, Bob's Bar and Grill may surprise you, or, Julie's Bouncing Animal Pet Shop. ;-)

If your club is not-for-proit, you can approach local Pepsi or Coca Cola distributorships, also local distributors for Frito-Lay and other such products that teens might consume.  \n\nLocal businesses may want to contribute for advertising purposes.  If you make up a professional type poster advertising your club events you might sell advertising space.

Some ideas:\n\nYou and a couple of other guys can start a sort of babysitting/big brothers business.  If you have a lot of younger boys in your area that are latch key kids or live in a single parent home or simply have 2 parents that both work you can charge per hour or day, pick them up at school, help them or monitor them with homework then "hang out" play ball, hit the park, ride bikes or play video games. \n\nIf your school doesnt have vending machines or the vending machines offer limited choices you can buy candy in bulk (for a discount price) at Sams Club or Costcos or BJ's (depending on what part of the country you live in) and resell them to kids at school (of course for a profit).\n\nYou can create "business cards" on your computer (go to staples or Office Max and buy a pack, visit the website www.avery.com or www.staples.com and use their free business card software to create them.  You can bike or walk around your area and hand these out...simple is good. Your name and number (only people you know and ask your parents permission FIRST) offer yard work, car washing, help with homework, that sort of thing)\n\nAsk you parents if they have or can create an ebay account so that you can sell things, then go through all of your old stuff and ask your friends to go through all of their stuff as well.  You can sell old video games, videos, cd's, sports equipment and clothing.   If you do sell something of a friends deduct the listing price (unless they paid that upfront) and deduct 5-15% of the final profit for yourself.\n\nYou can use the same idea above and have a yard sale and let all of your friends know, especially if they have complimented stuff you own.\n\nThe links below are some other ideas for teens in business for themselves.\n\nBest of Luck.

If you have money to invest you can advertise yourself (in a local radio or newspaper). But you can have yourself recognized using public relations and networking (if you use it right you can have great results) as well.\n\nMoreover, there are companies that can organize local outdoor campaigns (face to face direct marketing) and they get paid only for the customers that they bring you.\n\nOther ideas are: Be sponsor of a local event, distribute flyers and brochures, get some clients write testimonials about your service and products and let word-of-mouth work for you.\n\nFor more proposals you need to be more specific and include more details about your field and your company…

First off, what type of promotional business do you operate?\nhow much of your money is currently invested and how much more are you prepared to risk? What percent of your company are you willing to surrender for the investment you need?\nWhat is your cash flow and ROI?\n\nIf you are looking for investors or a gift angel, do a search on the net and understand first what you will be required give up in return for the money you seek.

You have to get people interested in your business. Preferrably inmvestors, entreprenuers or people with alot of money! If your business is popular they will ask if they can buy a licence to operate a restaurant with your businesses name and methods (i.e a franchise). The business will grow in popularity, and so will the number of restaurants!\nGood luck with franchising!

Send me your website & I'll take a look & pass it on.  AND you can "advertise" on different things.  post it on your myspace, icq, aim, etc. if you have them.  if not you're either screwed or you could get those things.  Also, email the address to friends & family

Use the web, word of mouth, and see if local stores will let you put posters up.  Also, you can volunteer to be entertainment at charity or public events..that is good publicity.

Try radio, local schools talk to music teachers about maybe hanging flyers around the school.  If your business is downtown try something unusual as maybe some previous students showing their talents outside your studio advertising the biz
