<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">One of the crucial hurdles that you must jump, is getting the word out about your Design Blitz workshops. You want freshman to be intrigued enough to give your workshop a try. The most effective method of advertising your events is by word-of-mouth. In order to really spark someone's interest and persuade them to attend your event you should have a face-to-face interaction. This helps you connect on a deeper level with freshman in a more personal way.</span></span>
<span style="font-size:medium;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Also, there are pre-existing groups which have organized innovation and entrepreneurship workshops. By identifying groups within and around campus who are involved in the I&E ecosystem, you will increase the numbers of personal interactions andincrease the promotion of the event. This provides you with many more mouths to spread the word. Another good way to attract attendees/participants is to secure a high-profile individual to talk at your event. This will not only attract freshman who will bring their friends, but many other members of the student body and even faculty. Including <span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">a field your students want to learn more about (for example, Social Entrepreneurship or human centered design) in your I & E workshops and events is a great way to generate students' interest</span></span>.</span>
