Macbeth,
These are some things that we have done and continue to do.
1) Post our monthly meetings in the local paper.
2) Distribute flyers to some local businesses with WiFi, to the local
college branch and to the local ISP's.
3) We will have two open houses annually to promote the MUG
4) We have been active in a local charity and have received good press for
both parties involved.
5) Monthly Newsletter
6) Web Site
7) We submit technology related articles to the local paper.
8) Press releases to local radio stations, TV and newspapers.
9) Utilize Apple's User Groups finder & calendar to promote events.
10) Utilize MUG Center calendar to promote events.
There is my top ten in no particular order. Hope this information helps out.
