Six months before the exchange:

  1. Book live bands and DJs. The more popular the band, the more lead time you will need to reserve them.

  2. Web site.   Once your web site is set up, be sure to send the link to webmaster@lindyexchange.com so that we can link to it from your banner and the calendar.

  3. Advertise! Talk up your event on Yehoodi (www.yehoodi.com), Windyhop (www.windyhop.org), and other Lindy hop discussion boards. Send Lindy ambassadors to other cities’ events. Get people excited about all the cool things that will happen at your exchange!


Tips:

  • Print a bunch of t-shirts and give them away free to people in other cities.

  • Make business cards with your exchange date and Web site on them.

  • Give away a Ferrari to the first one hundred people who sign up. (Or maybe just a weekend discount for the early birds.)
