No clients today either. Me and Henrique sat together to discuss marketing strategies for the tutoring service. We came up with some ideas for how we can design posters so that people are interested in our services despite having a huge database of tutorials online. We also outlined some activities/events we can organize for mass student gatherings (i.e- Welcome Week) to boost our popularity.
