Such a good marketing strategy that may only work here in Singapore: a new restaurant giving away tissues with their name and location as a way to promote their place. Better than leaflets or brochures, because nobody rejects tissues being given out here! What if Hive?

How do you know it's tissues? Is it obvious to you from the packaging or is it the feel of it?
From the packaging and feel of it when it was handed to me.
And pocket tissues here is so essential here 😅. We use it to clean / wipe everything and we use it to reserve tables at food courts. 😂
Nobody will dare touch a table whenever they see a tissue on it.
Oh. That's brilliant! I love tales from other cultures. If that happened in the UK the most likelly response would be "Ugh. Someone left their tissues". Followed by an attempt to push them as far away as possible without touching them. 😂
Oh, haha.
What we do is to leave the tissue (the whole thing) on the table to let people know that the table is already reserved.
Some dislike it but it has become a common practice 😅.
How do you reserve table in UK? (Especially when you don’t have anyone with you. )
You can't unless you book in advance which I doubt many people would do unless it was a planned meal out. If there are no tables we queue and the greeter usually tells you how long it is before there's likely to be a table free.
True. We do the same for proper restaurants.
But for food courts or public food centres where nobody is managing, this is the only way otherwise you may end up without a table. 😅
Exactly same with my country, they subtly push the tissue away as if someone left it there by accident, and if you come claiming you were there, they would say they didn't see anyone when they came 😂
Greetings @curamax ,
Such a good idea....here's hoping they are best quality...otherwise....first impression would not be a good impression....right. ^__^
Totally agree with you @bleujay, and it's to leave a good impression on the ones who will receive it 👍
Definitely, it's a great idea!
Agree. People will likely accept it and keep it longer with them compared to leaflets or brochures hehee
Yeah! Well done marketing!
giving tissue away is a great idea. Some restaurants do that too over here.
True. This is the kind of strategy that I think is feasible if ever I will promote Hive 😅 (and not breaking the law 😂)
I think that would work, but is it expensive? I mean stickers are definitely more cost effective but you can't really just stick them anywhere.
That’s something I was curious about earlier. My guess is that it might cause from $0.50 to $1 per piece because the packaging is custom made and If I’ll order, it may not meet the minimum qty that a supplier will require. So they may charge me premium price.
What about shoppee? I am sure something is there because for hive merch, that's where I mostly try to find sellers and where I can find a reasonable sticker like 1$ for 40 pcs or more sometimes, depeneding on the size. Over here for that tissues, it costs $0.033/piece
Woah I need to check shoppee in that case. Maybe there are cheaper options there that can do tissue with custom made packaging design.
Thanks for the idea 👍
Great idea which will not work in our country. People will line up for the tissues! 😅
That’s a valid concern… what if they just take because of the tissue 😂
These Hive tissues (if ever) has to be given to people who are aware of crypto & blockchain to actually get them to check on Hive.
Brilliant marketing indeed!
😅 i feel like this is the only way that people will take anything someone will hand to them. Over here flyers or leaflets will be rejected or thrown away 🥲
Leaflets and flyers handed to passersby end up in trash bins. I think no one really keeps a flyer unless it has something very special in it.
Guilty 😅
I just don’t bring leaflets home. I throw it as soon as I see a bin.
If I’m to hand someone to promote a product it has to be something that they will hold longer for at least a day for them to check it out.
Same with me. I've had instances where I had to politely decline flyers knowing I would discard them anyway.
Yeah. Sometimes, it’s better to simply turn down since it’s not something I’m not interested with.
Though sometimes I will take just to make the one distributing it feel better (especially when I noticed that people are ignoring them 😅)
We really need to look for ways to spread the word. Mechanisms like this are very interesting.
Totally agree with you man. We have this amazing platform that many people don’t even know about. I think we just need to find a way to make it known to others too.
With more people joining the platform, there will be a higher chance for Hive to succeed!
Yes, it's true, I was talking to a friend a few days ago about Hive.
It made it a little easier, as he already knows what crypto is like, so now I'm waiting to see if he'll actually come here.
Any way of promoting HIVE is very valid.
That’s actually a very good way of promoting Hive, a personal interaction with the invitee. In that way, there’s a good chance of on boarding people. It may not be scalable but it’s very effective.
Yeah hopefully your friend will participate in Hive 👍
Thanks! I'm waiting on this.
