I think we can write the "menu" i.e. the name of the place and their specialty & photo in the order of our visit.

@Varun: Let's not spill the beans too early!!

 

As of now, we can give the date, the pricing, the contact details. The prominent text of the poster could be our tagline "You gateway/driveway to the food of Kolkata!!! HOP ON!!"

 

or probably a list like this

 

"The oldest veg. dhaba in Kolkata"

"The best stew in Kolkata"

"The delicious Bengali sweets"

"Rolls, Cutlets and Kebabs worth licking your fingers" and then the details of contact , etc.

[Joydeep Nandi]

I am attaching a version of the Mess Sticker in readily printable one page doc format.

 

Guys and gals,

please comment on how you think it is. Also mention whether you want some more info on it or not. If it is all right then we should go ahead and print it.

 

What printer options do we have in campus now?? Are the OH and NH printers working?

 

Reagrds,

Joydeep.

It looks good. If I am correct, we will be printing B/W stickers, in that case you might want to remove the coloured background.

NH printer shop is open.

[Joydeep Nandi]

If you notice i inverted the colours of 'Zaika Zabarbus' and the black background for that reason only. The remaining colours are light so they wont be a problem i guess.

[Varun Torka]

Looks good to me too. 

[Joydeep Nandi]

Guys and gals,

 

I think we should put up our posters by tonight. The poster would be ready but Abhishek has Brandwitch work to do, so can someone please put your hand up to go and print the poster from manton Market. The shop closes by 8 - 8:30.

 

Also, because of Brandwitch happening tonight at 10, I wont be able to go and stick the mess stickers myself as I will be participating. And that is ideally the best time to go and stick them in the mess as no one is there then. So, can some people who are not planning to go for Brandwitch volunteer to do this? The print outs will be ready. You just have to cut and stick them on the tables with a tape.

 

Another idea, can we market our venture tonight at Brandwitch?? Abhishek, you can tell us this!!

[Anchal Agrawal]

@ Joydeep:  I think its good too. Just change 'visit' the notice borad to 'check out' notice boards

[Anchal Agrawal]

Also, for the posters aren't we planning to  give some more info like point of contact, ticket prices, timings when we leave  etc??

[Varun Torka]

I am going to NH in half an hour. If the mess stickers are finalized, I can get them printed as well. 10 A4 copies(40 stickers) should suffice I think?

[Ajay Khanchandani]

Hi Torka,

plz print some more for LVH so that I can do the stuff here.

I think around 20 for LVH should be fine considering the size?

Am I right, joydeep ?

Nothing is a waste of time if you use the experience wisely...

Thanks and Regards,

[Joydeep Nandi]

Here is the modified mess sticker.

 

We will stick one sticker for every four people sitting. So we need to print according to that.

According to that we need 56 stickers(14 A4 Sheets) in LVH mess and aorund 28 stickers (7 A4 Sheets) for WH Mess. Considering a similar number for NH (7 A4 Sheets) and slightly more for OH (12 A4 Sheets), I think we will need total 40 A4 Shhets.

 

Please do the needful Torka.

[Varun Torka]

I will take 50 printouts then, and leave 40 with Balutia in WH. Ajay or Joydeep can collect if from there. Upasna, can I leave the OH posters with you to put it up? I have to to go to L1 for STEP matters and won't be able to put them up before dinner. 

[Upasna Batra]

Yes, You can handover OH posters to me... I will put them up in the mess

[Anchal Agrawal]

Just to clarify, ur printing both the mess stickers and the posters for notice boards rite??

[Joydeep Nandi]

Ajay: Balutia se collect karke raat ko laga lena!! Koi doubt hai toh puch lena!!

 

Anchal: I dont think Torka is printing posters. Those will have to be printed from Manton Market!! Someone will have to volunteer!!

[Joydeep Nandi]

Just had a talk with Torka. He isnt printing posters!!

[Anchal Agrawal]

Do you guys think that the posters shld be up when we put the mess stickers??.. else there would be a disconnect

[Anchal Agrawal]

I dont mind going tomm morning or something, but would need someone to come along

[Joydeep Nandi]

Ideally, the posters should be up along with the stickers!!

 

The shop opens at 12:00 in the day!! So, time it accordingly.

 

If nothing is happening, we can print a black and white version of the poster and put it on notice boards temporarily. Then when the posters arrive, we can replace them. We'll need around 10 posters i think.

[Ajay Khanchandani]

How far is this manton market ?

I have lectures at 10:15 and 2:15pm tomo.

So I can go provided they are not too far.

Its 15 minutes by ric towards Behala from insti gate. You get down at Manton SuperMarket which is on the left hand side of the road. U enter the gate of the market and right in front (slightly on the right) is a print shop.

[Varun Torka]

THe mess stickers are printed and are with Upasna. You can collect it from her room.

[Ajay Khanchandani]

Hey guys,
Attaching the latest version of the poster. Please have a look and give your feedback asap. Also included your contact details, please check if that's the correct one.
@joydeep: Please float a EOI too...

[Joydeep Nandi]

@Avinash: Put the timings. Saturday 9th July, 4:00pm.

 

Do we get doodh cola in Balwant's???

2011/7/7 ܔܢܜܔAvInAsH(๏̯͡๏) <vicky.a...@gmail.com>

[Joydeep Nandi]

And the prices too!!

 

Rs. 99/person

Group Discounts

Rs. 79/person (Group of 5)

Rs. 59/person (Group of 10)

[Varun Balutia]

I think we can leave white boxes for date & time, so that posters can be re-used for further trips.

[Pooja Mishra]

Just put a white space for date and time and we can write those details by sketch pen or so

[ܔܢܜܔAvInAsH(๏̯͡๏)‎]

dunno, but took doodh once and google search says so. Changes have been accommodated.
But it gives a wrong idea that the prices are for the food. So, please suggest a way to put it inline with our proposition.


Please float the Spreadsheet.

Whatsay others???

2011/7/7 ܔܢܜܔAvInAsH(๏̯͡๏) <vicky.a...@gmail.com>

[Varun Balutia]

Yes, we should do that to avoid any confusion. I am not sure if the idea of the "tour" is getting conveyed properly and its not looking like a food offering in the campus.

this one talks about Bengali food though we are not covering any restaurant serving bengali food in our tour

<poster2.jpg>

[abhishek kumar]

ohk ... i didn't know that .. will try to change

[Varun Balutia]

Just replace Bengali with Mughlai :P, dont we have a picture of Kebabs/ Curries?

[Joydeep Nandi]

Guys!!! Some news from our classmates!!

 

Uthsav, naresh, Shruti, Sruti and Co., for their venture are organising a poker tournament in LVh Mess First Floor with the permission of Admin and ARC!!! Its a win win venture for them as they are incurring no cost and will make a percentage profit on buy ins!!

[Varun Balutia]

Isnt this Gambling?

[abhishek kumar]

Irrespective of whether it is or not ... it should not matter, because people who play poker are mere 10-20% of our population and newcomers won't join as they will not like to be stripped off their money by pro poker players ... 

[Ajay Khanchandani]

Yaar main baat hai, humko koi faraq nahin padta  from other peoples' ventures now; i.e. at this stage of the project.

Also I have a new idea which came out today at dinner time.

People told me that 5-10 people os too much of a stretch. And also we can such kind of pricing which simply forces people to come in groups i.e. buy in bulk.

An example,

Medium Pepsi at 40 Rs.

Large Pepsi (atleast 1.5 times) 45 Rs.

This forces people to go for the large one irrespective of anything else.

So how about giving a deeper discount but making the gorup size smaller?

For e.g. 

1 for 125

3 for 89

5 for more for 59 each.

Please pour in your comments quickly.

[Pooja Mishra]

lets put the eoi sheet on notice board with details of the event and we can also send the link to the mail ids

[Joydeep Nandi]

Pooja: I think you should put the EOI link on the board. Your name would make it look trustworthy !!

 

And I think this is the place where we should describe the venture and what the trip is about in simple language rather than trying to market it with facts!! People need to understand it clearly!!

[Pooja Mishra]

please modify the spread sheet its conveyance and not convenience and let me know so that I can put it up on notice board

[Anchal Agrawal]

I dont think we shld not have the EOI link on the board. We need to make approaching us simple for them. No one will take the trouble of taking down a link on the notice board and accessing it.

 Lets just ask them to contact one of us by phone. Then later we can send the eoi link to the mail id's of the person who has contacted us. 

[Pooja Mishra]

I feel that assessing a link is easier than calling up. lets give them both the options. anyways we are short of time. 

[Joydeep Nandi]

@Anchal: I guess by notice board Pooja meant the online Notice Board !!!

 

@Pooja: Change is done!!

[Pooja Mishra]

avinash,

i want to put this poster on BB, could you please fill in the When column and send it across to me. Please mention July 9th, 4 PM

Hi people,

just to increase the reach of our marketing efforts, I propose all of us download this poster and share it on FB on our profiles.

Please do so.

We can put it up with the simple tagline:

A trip to the best Eateries in Kolkata to satisfy your Gastronomic Cravings

OR

 A trip to the best Eateries in Kolkata to satisfy the Foodie in you.

 Please let your opinions flow.

[Ajay Khanchandani]

I have posted it on my profile page on FB so people who are friends on FB can check it out now and lemme know if it's a good idea.

~Want to make it a marketing success after all the time that we all have put in

~Don't want any  Jokaite to tell me he didn't listen about it or see our marketing efforts somewhere or the other.

[Ajay Khanchandani]
