Re: grand opening

Hi there, looks like alot of great ideas already. A few we tried and worked well for us was 1. Placing a colored Ad in our local paper with a good catch phrase or heading (for your readers.) 2. placing an ad in your local high school paper with a FREE lotion or single visit (something small but worthwhile for your younger broke crowd). And 3. Placing a large and colorful inflatable hot airbaloon on the roof stating "GRAND OPENING!" (for your drive by's that need a "visual") I realize there not always cost effective nor are they available in all areas so you could consider a large quanity of small heliom ballons in bright colors bunched together with a banner across your building/entrance way saying the same or "NOW OPEN!" Also where in MI? We are also in Michigan - it's freezzzzzzing!!!
