It appears that some meetups are having a great deal of success getting high participation at their rallies. This post is intended to be used like a forum to share ideas that could be useful to other meetups who are not having the same kind of success. Feel free to comment!

Here is what we did to pack the nashville rally
- Printed 10,000 two-sider flyers and passed them out by hand or placed them on cars. Focusing on college campuses works well.
- Put up 600 posters around town
- Ran a 30-second radio spot for 3 days on the local talk radio station
- Told all the meetup groups within a 500-mile radius
- Wrote press releases and sent them to the local media outlets - big and small
- Set up a web site where people could find out additional info
(www.nashvilleforronpaul.com/)
- Coordinated with the national campaign to get Ron on interview by the local media
