Self promotion brainstorms have begun

This is pretty awesome. The first test of our new integrated Plaid team was for ourselves. We've had a few brainstorms on self promotional concepts. With our in-house crew at our studio in Connecticut, AND the extended team - spread across the country. A virtual brainstorm using our favorite web 2.0 tools.

Anyway, there's one concept that we're all universally in love with. We'll call it the Plaid Summer Tour for now. (Although we'll have to work quickly to get this off the ground in time for summer.)

Here's the basics of the concept: A custom Plaid van (oh, soooo cool), touring some of our existing clients, as well as some brands that could use the power of Plaid. We'd be spreading Plaid love and cheer across the Plaid nation.

Waddya think?

Also, the van idea kicks arse.

We did a similar road trip a couple of years ago, but we got a small mobile home. If you wanna see our video of the tour, email me at mshapiro@turkel.info and I'll send you a link!
