Hi all -
I've gone from just two of us at our local Vegas Game Day (2nd Saturday of the month at the library) in January to having six tables at this upcoming October Game Day.
Most of the new people are from all over the Vegas Valley, hearing about the game from someone. I'm running at least one additional game day at one of the three main stores here in town (Little Shop of Magic, Avatar Comics and BattleZone) in a rotating fashion as well as running several games a month for various groups that are interested.
The Game Days used to be filled with 4e tables, and now that is down to one table. I am most proud that Pathfinder Society has become so active - but I want more. Nobody has yet been announced for our region - but I've applied and I've been doing a lot for the region. I'm also with NeonCon this year as the Asst. Pathfinder Coordinator and with NeonCon coming up in November, I want to make sure PFS is well represented at the Con with Vegas players.
So I want to promote Vegas Game Day and PFS more.
Has anybody done an Illustrator or MS Publisher flyer for PFS? I've got some experience from my days as a Marketing Coordinator and can edit either - but I would like to see what others have done or used. Logo's, designs and such are important. I will be putting these out from my pocket - so the less I have to do design wise the better. Since it's for PFS and Game Day, should I list 4e, Savage World and the board games that are played? What do you do to generate new players?
Thanks,
Theocrat Issak

I have this "little thing" I did in illustrator and saved it as a pdf. The text is a little bit of a mess.
It was designed to be the same size as a mini blister pack hanger.

I'm currently working on some new ones. We have PFS being organized and played in 6 stores currently, and have 3-4 more stores interested in joining in. With that many locations, I am going to try to put something together that can be used at all of them. It will be another week or two before I get around to it though.
As for using Illustrator or MS Publisher, I'm computer stupid and just use Word mostly.
In regard to generating interest among new players, I have introduced myself to every store owner to request they help get spread the news by word of mouth. Most stores have their own forums we post in, as well as several meet-up groups. I've got several other ideas coming down the pipe in the next week or two to hopefully step up recruiting. Once it is more formalized, I don't mind sharing.
Finally, it depends on what your role is for the game days. If you are coordinating all the different games (4e, board games, etc...), then probably. If you are only dealing with PFS, I would be greedy and horde all the players you can :)
