Posters are required to announce your candidacy for a Student Council position.To help people remember you, choose eye-catching materials and wording.You might win if you stay positive.
Step 1: You can find posterboard or paper.
Think about whether you want to make a few larger posters on posterboard or a lot of them on regular paper.You have the option to do both.Determine your options by going to an office supply store.For continuity, and to make it easy for people to remember you and your campaign, you might want to choose a color scheme that you stick to in your posters.Some may think neon colors are too bright.
Step 2: How you decorate your poster is up to you.
If you're an artist, think about how you use your skills.Think of other ways to get people's attention if you aren't artistically minded.If you make a lot of posters, stickers can get expensive.Will you draw it or use the computer to make it?What kind of impression do you want to create?Is it possible to include an image of you?Is it a photo or a drawing?
Step 3: A model poster is needed.
Ask your friends and family to look at it.If you want to incorporate their suggestions, you need to make a final version of your model.You're going to have to duplicate it multiple times if it's posterboard.All you have to do is find a place where you can make the copies of your poster.
Step 4: You should make your candidacy clear.
You should put the position you are running for on the poster that is easy to read.Your voters need to know what you're voting for.You should include your last name in the poster.People who don't know you personally will now know who you are if you add a picture of yourself to the poster.You don't have to look like a model.You can make a rhyme to help people remember your name and position.June for school council president!Since June might not be enough to identify you, you can write your full name below.You can be more straightforward.June Larson is the school council president.
Step 5: You can include other elements on your poster.
Do you want to work on an issue while in office?Make that clear if it's true.Do you want your school to change?Why are you running?Voters should be given some idea by your posters.You can vote for a cleaner lunchroom.He will make a great VP.Scott is going to make lockers safer.Give him your vote.
Step 6: Think of a slogan on your poster.
It may be tied to your issue, but it can be more general.It's possible to help people remember you and your campaign when they're voting.”Let's make our school even better next year” is a sample motto.
Step 7: Don't trash other people.
Make your campaign about you.It's likely that you will work with your opponent on something in the future if you get negative.It's not worth it to make enemies over a school council campaign.Posters with phrases like "Li stinksll!" should not be made.Vote for the person that thinks.No more David Tan.No one should be a fan of him.
Step 8: You can find out where you can put posters.
Posters have to be in designated areas.You can be creative in other schools.To find out, talk to teachers or school administrators.The different ways in which you can hang your poster won't damage anything when it's taken down.
Step 9: You can list your friends to help place posters.
If you want to get the most coverage, put your posters up strategically.If there's a lot of posters on the bulletin board, you might want to look for another place.If your friends stand back from the walls, you will be able to see your poster.Pick unusual locations to put your posters.There are different places for the bathroom Stairwells.
Step 10: Keep an eye on your posters.
Don't let anyone take them down.If you need to put more up or see places later that you think could use a poster, have extras.It's a good idea to take down your posters once the election is over.You know more about your next campaign even if you didn't win.
