We're excited to share this "Idea of the Week", submitted by either the MAiZE staff or one of your fellow siteowners. There never seems to be a shortage of ideas and the truth is that some of the best originate with all of you! So, if you ever have an idea you'll like us to pass along to the group, please just send it our way. Also, please remember that we'll be archiving these ideas on the siteowner web site, so that you can go back and view them whenever you like.
This Week's BONUS Idea
As promised in the last Idea of the Week, we'll be sending out two ideas each week this month to help catch up from the break we took in March/April. As always, if you have ideas you'd like us to share with our MAiZE family, please email them our way.
A Cool Way to Attract Facebook Fans!
This week's idea was shared with us earlier this year by Sylvia Rankin of Agri-Culture USA. We love it and wanted to be sure to pass it along to all of you with Facebook pages. If you don't already have a page, we highly encourage you to consider adding social media to your marketing budget/plan this year...it's without a doubt an increasingly cost-effective and popular way to reach your customers.

"I had a thought about collecting Facebook fans for your farms by printing and distributing handheld paper fans (small ones cost around 21 cents each) at events, parades, festivals, etc.
 They could be printed with the farm logo and website -- and the phrase "Be our Fan on Facebook".  Imagine seeing a crowd of folks fanning themselves with your Facebook invitation!"
 
If this is an idea some of you are interested in pursuing, please let us know. We may be able to coordinate a group order to obtain better pricing.
