Me Poster
This exercise allows participants to engage in a brief pictorial elevator pitch. Participants will construct a poster to advertise a class where they could teach or demonstrate a unique skill. We will compare popular and unpopular posters and discuss what made advertisements more or less successful. This exercise can be used to teach students how to advertise/market a product or service more effectively. It can also be used to teach students how to fail fast – fail safe – a situation where they can quickly learn whether an idea is worth pursuing without making a large investment up front.
