[QUOTE="aestus, post: 1596029, member: 2989"] Here's another idea. This would be a totally different crowd than perhaps what you're used to, but a lot of the pro local, anti corporate, pro organic, pro crafting, hippy types are very open to prepping and even survival type gear and information, if presented the right way. I live near the Paseo area, so I'm surrounded by hipsters and what most on this board would call "hippy" types. However, most of these people are perhaps better prepared than most people even on these boards. Many of these people are heavily involved with crafting, farming, reusing and repurposing items for other uses, ect. Many of these people are passionate about supporting local farmers, local crafters, local businesses, ect and are very tight knit and close with their communities. Many of the people I know are avid outdoors people and very interested in topics of self sustaining and being able to live off the grid if things go wrong, ect. You can also attract soccer mom types by showing how things can be recycled or repurposed to be used in otherways or how they can save money if they gardened or canned their own food, ect. Present it in a way that is family friendly and show how even the kids can be involved and this can be a Sunday family activity, ect. Tone down the SHTF talk and the zombie apocalypse at first and appeal to a more general audience and ease them into it. That's the best way to get the soccer moms or local communities who are already prepping "per say" but of a different kind. [/QUOTE]
