I recommend getting to Marke early and scouting out for some metallic surfaces. A church bell is perhaps too obvious, but you will find a wide variety of vehicles and shop signs. Produce a small hammer (I'd suggest a toffee hammer, ideally made of copper or brass) and lightly strike the metal for the desired result. Variety is key, and a few hours of experimentation will undoubtedly produce a ting that will send shivers down your spine.

Dang, that was smooth! I didn't even know he was a spammer until I clicked the link. Wait, I didn't click the link. Oh well, maybe it was obvious after all.

Tip 6: when you throw the painting, make sure the corner hits something squishable.

Tip 5.1: If you can't find an oil painting, make one yourself. I hear that olive oil is pretty easy to paint.

Tip 7: If the painting hits something unsquishable, repeat tips #5 and #6 until an oil painting remains completely intact. If potential client is struck, continue to strike potential client until they agree not to press charges, or until they cannot recall who hit them with an oil painting.

Note: Throwing of additional paintings/beating may not be necessary if painting strikes a potential client who qualifies as *squishable*

Replacing the letters, "Marketing" with the letter, "Q", enables you to refer to the whole process as "Q-tips", which helps in ear-canal cleaning as WELL as selling paintings.

Speaking of marketing, if I had to sum it up in one sentence, I'd say: turn vision into results with Hello Pareto.

This is the first time that I see an advertising bot get +1 from a mod. :lol:
