The virtual Herf plan...
CW Sponsored "virtual event"
Hey guy - I would like permission to host a virtual cigar "event" sponsored by CW. Nothing required of CW except to let me post some info here for the cigar reps to read so they can know about the event. Of course if any of you are on first name basis with any cigar manufacturer, that won't hurt if you can help make contact. I have a physical location here in georgia - Bailey's pub in Kennesaw. They're Cigar Friendly - and sell some cigars too. How the event will go: The remote folks (cigar manuf/reps) will pick a cigar or 2, and a pairing - I have a list but can get other stuff too if it's not on the list... of beer or liquor (bourbon / brandy / cognac) (I have a list of that too). There will be NO COST to them for this promotion, unless they want to send some cigars for raffle/give-away - or even just for me to smoke... Other info on the bar/their booze choices and the cigars they STOCK normally... HERE: (copied from this post) Quote:
The entire event should take about an hour, with each of the guests being able to talk about their cigar pairing, and answer questions from the audience.... I am going to try to get a nearby cigar shop to also be on premise. Goals - Teach some younger folk about cigars Promote some Cigars Promote the bar as a cigar friendly location Promote CW as an online place to go for info (and maybe - promote the Cigar Rights of America group?) The virtual meeting will be using webcams, via Imeet. If you've not seen Imeet, - www.imeet.com So, we're promoting Imeet too...LOL but that's my full time job. Your thoughts, gents? Can i have permission to do this under the CW banner?

Hey John, looks cool. Hope you get a lot of support. Have you talked or had someone talk to Frank Santos of Reyes Family Cigars? He is great, posts here from time to time, and is INCREDIBLY knowledgable. I won't throw anybody's name in here in case they don't want to participate, but there are several people on this forum who could probably help initiate that process.
Further, I'm not sure if he has signed up here, but Jonathan Drew from Drew Estates is fairly active on several forums and would be easily reachable. |
