<br/><u>Advertising</u>In order to cover the costs of all supplies and other equipment tools, there must be sponsors. A good route to take is looking at Kent State in Ohio's Fashion Tech Hackathon and to have tiers as sponsors. Target is also another good option. It can be expensive, depending on the number of people you expect to be attending, which is why advertising is so crucial. There should be enough supplies for all participants, not too little and not too much. It should be done in several different ways to achieve the best outcome.
*Use Eventbrite for ticketsand also keep track of how many are officially attending
*Advertise for a long period of time to gain more participants
*Spread by word of mouth
